I bought a apexecon hid 55watt kit finally got it today and tried to install the lights cam on but the high beam indicator will not go off. it is dimm and then whan i pust the lever for highs it just gets brighter. Called where i got them from they said to make a jumper wire from the other headlight that does not plug into the stock harness to the oem harness. DO you guys feel that will work or do i have somehting else mixed up. i really liked these lights and dont want to lose out on them and 13 bucks to ship them back.

 

if you do this, it will fix you problem..Everyone that gets the HIDs has too

isnt that only for the new body style f150s? and isns it also only to get yours highs to stay on with your fogs?

 

UGACOOP16, What is this going to do for his HI beam indicator??

 

Yeah, everyone says that solves the high-beam problem.

 

ya good call completely forgot to look at what year u drive...If I recall you have to do the same mod but it is a little bit harder to do for the older body style trucks.

 

dont get me wrong i appreciate him trying to help me out. i just dont think he relized i dont have a new body style and i am not trying to get my highs on with fogs.

 

Lol, I just got mine in the mail! After looking at this kit and the diagram of our headlights, it looks like your getting a bleed into the hi beam circuit. Which causes the light to come on dimly. Check the voltage of your hi-beam wire when just the lows are on. I bet you see a little.........

 

You could also try plugging the factory harness directly into the ballast, not through the hi beam harness. While you won't be able to use hi beams, you can at least see if your light still comes on.

 

Ya well either way I know this for sure, you have to put in a ground and it will stop the hi beam light from coming on...and putting in the ground just happens to be the same mod as making ur hi beam and fogs on.

 

i dont have a meter to check it but when i switched the lever for the highs nothing happened. do you have any ideas on how to fix this?

 

ugacoop16 where do i put this ground off the hids? or off the headlights some where its really annoying when my friend did this in his 1997 Explorer sport and all he did was plug and play and wala

 

Ya buddy I have been looking everywhere to try and figure out how to do it for ur style and this is one of the things i found
