Enviri - Need your help urgently while I'm doing the installation...So far I've installed one side of the JDM HID lights on the passenger side and after I've plugged everything in, the parking light is constantly on without the keys in the ignition. Even after I start the car, the low beam and the rest of the lights do not come on in the JDM HID headlights while my US headlight on the driver side functions normally. What am I missing?

On post # 31 you had mentioned something about an extra ground going from the green/black parking light wire to the chassis...After I spliced the extension parking light wire, I connected one of the wires to the black parking light wire in the headlight housing. Is this what you meant by post # 31? Or is there another step I'm missing. I'll get to my parents house later this afternoon and I'll check all the wires and plugs again just to make sure I didn't miss anything.
Thanks |

I'm ordering another pair of T10 and H4 plugs because the ones I got are of bad quality. I also blew out the tail light and passenger low beam fuse.

something tells me that there is definately a crossed wire somewhere, grounded to the chassis or not. CTScott recommended we grounded the parking light to chassis for safety reasons.

Following this, currently have a set of headlights & ballasts on their way from Japan. This thread has been a huge help in understanding what the hell i need to do to make this work :)

Update...I finally received the relay wiring harness that fredovvti had suggested I use to solve the power issue for the JDM headlight. I ordered it from Amazon...https://www.amazon.com/LIGHTING-Cera...op_mb_pd_title. After I finished with the installation and drove home from my parents house, the low beam (hid bulbs) would flicker when I start the ignition and the switch stalk is turned off and the blue high beam CEL would come on the dashboard. The light would continue to flicker when I turn on the parking light with the first turn on the light switch stalk. When I turn on the low beam, the flickering stops and I get a solid beam. The same holds true for the high beam as well when I push the light switch back.
Any idea where I should look?...I grounded both the H4 relay harness and Parking Light on the passenger side to the chassis located on front near the radiator. I grounded the Parking Light and H4 relay harness on a factory ground bolt near the air intake duct on the driver side. Check out the pics as well as the video of the lights flickering. Any suggestion on where to look or alternative grounding location is appreciated.

I know this is an old thread but I just found it recently and ordered a set of JDM HID headlights for my ride. I was hoping to get clarification on the wire orientation to connect from the H4 to the HID connectors. Black is quoted as 12V, Hi Beam, and in some cases, Ground. Could you please help me out with the correct orientation. Thanks in advance, DeeBee |

Don't forget to pull your DRL relay in post #62 so your lights don't flicker.

I tested them with a battery charger and they worked well When I plugged them into the car the HID do not come on All other lights turn on. I know the bulbs work so it must be something to do with the car's stock wiring. I get the feeling there is not enough power to turn on the HID ballasts. I am not using a wiring harness. Is everyone who has them working using a wiring harness? Please help me solve this before Christmas. I'd like to have them working for a road trip then.

We don't have DRL on the '06 here in Australia so that won't be an issue for me.

Thanks for your suggestion. I think the wires are ok since I get power to all other bulbs. In fact I tried swapping positions and the high beams came on at the low beam position. My suspicion is that somehow there is insufficient power to turn on the HID ballast. I know they work because I have tested them with a portable battery charger and they light up well. I had a Rav4 where the factory wiring powered HID projectors I had retrofitted without a wiring harness. I drove that for 7 years no problem. I expected the same from my little Yaris

The videos aren't available any longer so I'm not able to see if indeed my wiring is off.

Oh how I envy all of you that have these lights working.
I'm so close yet it feels so far off.... I hope to get this issue resolved and have the ability to see clearly in the dark.
