Default Xentec HID 2000 Blazer

I recently bought a Xentec HID conversion kit online. I installed it and the lights won't turn on! It has all the necessary parts (ballasts, bulbs, connections) in order to function, unless a wiring harness is needed? What do you all think is wrong and what can I do to try to fix this?

Try flipping the harness around and plugging it upside down into the factory harness. Some kits are reverse polarity. It fixed the issue with my DDM kit.

Yeah I agree with Brianator, I had the same problem and I flipped the harness. But the daytime running lights can sometimes cause a problem.

that's the deal with the HIDextra kit. both the LB's & HB's need to be plugged in with the black wire on the (+) terminal.

hmmmm...............all of the HID kits i've done have simply knocked the DRL outta comission (meaning they no longer function).

but one can never rule anything out, when working with electronic devices.

try flipping the harness first. be sure to keep us updated on your results.

Well YA you got 10,000K, That is like tinting you headlights blue. I have 5000k and it is still a little to blue for me.
