The high beam indicator is on because you wired the valeos incorrectly. It happened to me when I installed the ecodes, but I caught it before I finished wiring everything. Simply switch the two wires for the high and low beam.

what color are the high beam wires? i dont think thats it cause my lows work without my highs on. whether or not the highs are on, the light is on.

btw, i just have 1 bulb wired right now and thats my hid kit in my projectors

You must mean you have one SET of bulbs wired, correct? So you only have twoHID bulbs connected to the wiring harness? If thats the case, that is why your bright indicatoris going off, the brights symbol will come on if one of two conditions are met: 1. Your brights are on or 2. The car detects that the brights are eitherburntoutor not connected. Get some new halogen bulbs for your brights and install them, should make the symbol disappear while only your lows are on. BTW, what kind of kit did you get, ebay? I just installed my Xentec(Ebay) 8000k kit withOEM 2001 Valeo HID projectors.
