Question The heck happened? :P

So, I installed 6000k HIDs on my car yesterday, they were alright. I don't think my aftermarket projectors were made for them, haha. Anyways, I noticed today that only one light was working. I was just kinda like wow, those didn't last too long. So I put back on my halogen lights and the same light (passenger side) didn't work again.. So I switched bulbs with the driver side, and it still didn't work.

How could something like this have happened? Is there two different fuses, one for each headlight or something?

Thanks in advance,
John

Sorry, need to bump. I have a long trip coming up soon, and I'll be doing a lot of night driving.

Yup each bulb has its own 10A fuse - I think it's number 21 and 22 but not positive.

I'm not sure which side you have out but 20 is for the right side low and 21 is for the left side low

FWIW there's also individual fuses for high/low beams

Check the plug throughly, I doubt the hids were the problem.
