BigYellowBlur78 Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 One of my friends has an 08 Ford Explorer, he wanted me to get him some HID's for him. The bulb size is H13, so I went to the place where I got mine, and ordered him a kit.. I got the bulbs, & the rely. I installed the lights, and on his dash it kept saying check left bulb,check right bulb, check high beam... So I called the company, and they said I needed a capacitor/warning canceler. Installed that, & the warning still shows up. Does anybody know what the problem could be? One of my other friend said I needed to get a CAN-BUS HID Kit, is this true? Any help would be appreciated... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superjay Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 exploder isn't can-bus. you can fix it with resistors (check bulb resistance). What ballast are you using? If you're not using slim digital ballasts you're going to have issues Quote Principal JTech Consulting - Leader in 12-Volt Training and Product PlanningIt's not about how much power you have, but how well you use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigYellowBlur78 Posted February 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 I am not using the slim ballast, and I was told to buy this http://www.hidcountry.com/Products/hidwarningcanceller.php and it would fix the problem, it didn't now I don't know what to do.

BigYellowBlur78 Posted February 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 So I emailed the company and told them the situation and got a reply If the capacitors aren't doing the trick you may want to look into the Can Bus Ballast. I will leave a link for you from the website. http://www.hidcountry.com/Products/canbus_hid_kit.php But I thought it wasn't a Can-Bus HID Kit I needed...

BigYellowBlur78 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Even more BS with this company/lights. So I ordered the Can-Bus system like they said I might need. Got it in today, put it in his Explorer. The warning still shows up. So I called the company right away, asking what I could do to fix the problem.. They said "there is nothing else you could buy that would fix the problem. Have you taken it to a professional shop to have it looked at". I said yes... Then I asked how I could return it because it wasn't working. Then they said, "are the lights on and working" I said Yea the lights work.. So they said "well if they work then why do you want to return them" I said because all the things I bought were suppose to work and fix the light out warning... Here is the best part: They then said, "well since you opened and installed it we can't take it back" I was fuming I said, Then how do I know if it will work if I don't install it? Then they said "we are sorry there is nothing we can do" So I'm calling VISA & my bank tomorrow and getting my money back and won't ever buy from them again... **sorry it was long had to vent** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
