spudley1988 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Hey folks looking for a little input to relieve my stress lol. When I got my mb6 it had Bosch hid kit and the passenger full beam didn't work. The dipped beam just recently went so ordered a set of hid from hid4u and the same full beam doesn't work. Ive checked the fuse and they are fine is their anywhere else that could be causing an issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 A little change here the passenger light is actually permanently on full beam, hoping this may help and someone may have a better idea than me why this is happening lol.

Krzys Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Sounds like a bad earth or a short somewhere. Check the wiring on the HID kit and the OEM bits mate. If one side is on full beam usually means there's a problem on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 It's the passenger side that is on permanent. The kit I've got doesn't have a direct feed from the battery it just has an adapter which allows the standard plug to be used so in essence the kits a lot simpler and tidier. So what kind of area would I start to look at as wiring can confuse me a lot lol. Hoping the description of the kit makes it easier for people to hopefully identify and help me along a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Sounds similar to what I have, you have a bit that plugs in a bit like a wall plug with the three prongs on one side? I would probably start there, just check for any obvious breaks in the wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Share Posted July 22, 2014 Yea mate the bulb goes in as normal and wires come out the back of it with a 3 prong plug which goes into the socket that would have been attached to the back of a headlight normally. Going to get a lad from my work to hopefully voltmetre it if he has time and hopefully find some issue. Hate electrics :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Yeah good idea with the voltmeter mate, hopefully it's something simple! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
