help with my headlight issue pleasee

i just had projectors installed. I started to smell some plastic burn, now my driver side projector doesn't turn on, any ideas?

ok, so i took my ballast out, and where the relay harness connects to the ballast, there is an acidic buildup, anyone know what the issue is?

weird. who did the retrofit for you? r1forever? or eric? i know they offer warranty on their work. if none did... i would try and contact one of them and have them check it out.. since they will know what they will be doing. they are both located in the LA Area.

yea, i was the one that checked out the issue. The relay harnesses were all clicking together. I plugged in another ballast and that one didnt turn on either, so maybe its the relay harness's wire?

I don't see it either. When I click on the image I get an error message from Yahoo that says I don't have permission to view it on the server.

I can see it now. That's really weird...

I don't think I can help you. I've been installed plenty of HID kits as well as some on my own car and I've never ran into that issue. Maybe it's the quality of the brand or possibly it's not getting a good connection in that one pin.
