buyhid headlights.... install questions

Ok got my new ballast friend was eager to put it in been awhile so screw it have at it.

Now on one of the lights.... passenger side has 2 prong small clear connection no idea where it goes coming from the headlight itself. The drivers side connects into power source, so I'm a bit lost.... But I feel that the passenger side isn't getting power? I can't find buyhids instructions.

Old school TRS kit. That is your highbeam wires. They plug into your harness.

Ok got it! Pulled both sides apart... Wifey moved my wiring that I said not to touch, then I saw it sitting with my other harnesses grrr. Guess we over looked things

I do know the plugin that has the 5 pins is finicky as hell.... Dunno how to really go about that one.

Anything on the wiring to look for? Went driving my passenger was out. It makes a loud buzzing when powered on when this is occuring. I changed out the harness on the whole headlight no change.

Just trying to get feed back on this matter. There are no issues going on with drivers side that powers up 100% of time

Ok confirmed bad bulb I switched it once before then it worked switched it back not thinking... Hey leave it in there to confirm.

I did that today and no light drivers side. Ugh bad ballast now light, but dammit I won't go back to halogens.

How do I go on getting a new bulb? Now if they only had hid bulbs in stores.
