my .02¢, is I would use a wire harness with fuses. Sounds like it came with a set. But seems like its over powering your electrical system. HID systems produce tons of voltage on start up!!! and may be too much for system, or not enough causing the ballasts to powemy .02¢, is I would use a wire harness with fuses.

How did you manage to double post sentence by sentence? Cool....

My negative eyehole is to small to fit on the terminal..

Oh, wow. Bad jokes are bubbling around my brain now.

Ok, you can fix this easily. Cut the little eyehole off and make a wire loop as a temp. fix. I would recommend a more permanent solution soon, though. But it should work well enough to figure out if the harness fixes the issue. Take a wire brush to the terminal first to make sure you get good contact.

Okay well I did the harness and all this other work to make it clean and it still failed the same way without the harness.... Guess I'm gonna have to email ddm...

I just posted under WDYD today? thread, but i have the same thing as you. As you may rememeber, i ordered ddm right before you i think, or after. Except its on my buddies sierra. Switched w/ my ballasts (that work) still flickers and goes out, finally tried another bulb and it came on everytime and stayed on.

1 headlight on the sierra goes out, or doesnt always come on, then the fogs, when they come on, 1 stays on for about a min. then goes out, the other stays on, but doesnt always come on w/ button.

But i did try another bulb, and it came on everytime and stayed on. So you may have bad bulb, i didnt read through thread(sorry) but might want to try that.

(for me, im sending it all back and ordering from someone else, ddm is getting too cheap to be good) and amount of problems ive had w/ them lately.


but try bulb if you can, might work.

It's driving me nuts

be glad your working on a nbs tahoe, simply pull pin, take light out. On the gmc im doing, whole front end to get the lights out.


but try another bulb, worked for me. You and me having this problem, is whats making me think, they got a bad bunch going.

It happened to three xentec hids I had tonfinally sent it back no refund 60 bucks later... And I blew 108 on these for future fogs and lows....I'd rather pull apart the whole front end and have it work at this point it's like 23 degrees and required everything ripped terminal connectors out of the oem battery connectors and installed terminal extenders.... Fml

Well before you kill the 108, try another bulb and see if that fixes it. And i have torn the front end off 3 times now, its not fun and nothing works still. But thats what we get for ordering 30 buck hid kits.

And forget that 23 degrees, no way. Hope your inside working on them.
