I have the Bi XENON For my 09, works great tell I try my brights, and blow a fuse every time[bash], what do I need and please provide a link to were I can purchase the fix
Thanks
[dunno]No I'm not, that is what I was woundering, because I blow the fuse every time,[nono] if I install the facktory set back everything works fine,[?|] when I install the hid. everything works also ecept the brights[80?]
i have a set of hid's that i havent really seen elsewhere, from what i understand bi xenon have 2 filaments, mine only have a single that is about an 1in and a half long maybe a tad more but they magnetically pull back in the h13 socket so it gets higher and wider, terrible lighting on my high beams thought, recently my passenger side light has been turning yellow so i think my ballast is about to go and on occasion one or the other doesnt turn on but turn off and on again and they both work?
I used to have the same thing. I'm sorry to say I really doubt that is a fixable problem. I think it may be the ballast taking a dump. I also have the thought it might be the high low control box in the wiring because both of your lights are acting up.
again second set.. So no has a fuse system I gather from the responses,[goofydrunk] and everyone seams to just buy the single cheaper one filament hids[thumbd], and never use there brights anymore?[nono] am I missing something here[bawling]. Maybe I will just put my factory system back in.[histerical]

Some kits are hid low and halogen high which suck ass
Before I did my retrofit I had a $75 set that comes with dual beam bulbs. There weren't 2 hid bulbs or anything, its one hid capsule on a magnetic plate. When you hit high beam the magnet engages and sucks the bulb into the socket a little (like an adjusting flashlight) and focuses the beam and aims it a little higher.
Anyways was it ever working? Was it direct plug and play?
Did you ever try swapping the plugs from ballast to bulb and vice versa? Had a similar setup on my last car and that worked. I never blew a fuse though so this may not be applicable/helpful.
Seems like the Magnet for the High beam is using more amperage to engage the Hi beam soleoid. Try using a Relay kit and see if this cause the issue to go away.
