Bought some ddm tuning HID's and I connected them but they don't turn on!! Help!!

[aberrios09]

I got them yesterday and tried to put them in today, but they wouldn't turn on, the ballast click when I turn the headlight switch on but the lights don't turn on.. I have a 2002 Toyota camry se by the way.. How can I get them to work?

If you could email me some trouble shooting suggestions that would be great thank you!! Aberrios0_9@yahoo.com

Neither of them work? I bought a set and they work fine. I would re-check all the plugs and if that dont work try to rig it up in another vehicle see if they get power then.

Yeah man it's weird, I bought some for a old Honda I had and they worked fine, but for this camry it's giving me a hard time.. I checked all the wiring and everythings where it's supposed to be, Ima try it on another camry see if they work than! Thanks man

try pluggin in the the plug the goes to the ballast in the opposite side, i did that on my avalon and it worked

[workerant]

Try it outside of the car, just plug it into the battery. This way U can play around with the wire. Just careful.

All the DDM ballasts I've used needed the extra battery relay harness. It could be the same case for you

[trehouse]

yeah, turn around the power connector going into the ballast. sounds like the + and - are reversed.

where do you guys place ballast on driver side? I have trouble finding good spot for a ballast there..

[Pawel062]

if they are long enough then under headlight or between headlight and rad supports.

btw my ddm are running of heavier duty connectors and wires in fogs no problem without harness. and i ran em straight through to oem cabling for a few days before without problems so it is possible to run them without a harness.

I put my ballasts on the frame. Zip ties ftw

How odd, mine don't power up in any way. Might be due to the fact that they're the cheapest ones though...

ive been running my ddm ballasts for about a year and a half now. they juiced up fine with the oem harness. i placed my ballast on that frame between the battery and headlight. it fits pretty well right there. try to flip around connectors going into ballast. it does the trick sometimes

[aberrios09]

The turning the ballast connection arous worked!! Thank you!!
