Yes. Everything electrical has to have a path for electrons to flow to ground. If you have a (+) lead, going into a source, and a ground (-) coming out of that source, the item will light up. Its that simple.
Wire both pos and neg CCFLs into your turn signal wires. As for the high beams, yes. one is positive, and one is negative. Engage your high beams and using a DMM with a grounded probe, find which of the two is sending out voltage. That is positive and when plugged in, activates the magnet to pull the cutoff shield.

So I plug both of the wires from one ccfl into the same splice on my running lights? And when I find out which plug end is positive, does it matter which of the two wires from one projector I plug into it?
now on your high beam portion. turn lights on and engage your high beams. locate the high beam solenoid plug coming off your wire harness and use the ddm to find out which of the two little (hole-like plugs) has power and take the (+) wire coming from the projector and plug into that power source then take your ground wire and plug it into the other (hole-like plug) and you high beam should now be working(cut off shield should be pulled down)
Ok guys...... I didn't know that the high beams are NOT polarity sensitive. And it turns out that I am missing 2 module things that the CCFL,s plug into. Apparently they were out of stock when I ordered them and they didn't tell me. So they shipped those out and should be here in a few business days. Nobody ever said anything about needing those....
Well Matt said they were not. Anyway, I just plugged them up and when I click on the high beams, the lights shut off. I checked the plugs in the harness and there is no power to either high beam plug in the harness... what is this all about?
But shouldn't there be power coming from the high beam plug on the harness? My DDM doesn't detect any power on any of the high beam harness plug ends when the high beams are on?
You have three fuses controlling headlights. Low beam left, Low beam right, and both high beams.
On a Px29t base, for a standard 9007 bulb, the pinout is as follows:
With the flat side of the bulb pointed vertical, center is ground, lower left is high, and lower right is low. If you turn on your headlights, your low beam wire should emit ~12.8vDC. Switch on high beams, and the low beam wire will go to 0vDC and then the high beam will go ~12.8vDC.
The blue plug is just a sensor. It carries all but a small amperage to the relay controller as to when lights are low/high/off.
Check the high beam fuse. If it is fine, your wiring is flawed.

You would think that the wires coming from the projector would be able to be distinguished from positive. But both look exactly the same. So is the high beam fuse located on the actual headlight bulbs, that bright blue plug thing, or the green fuse near the battery? Which will not come out.
