so i just installed my halos with a friend and his dad but one bulb is way dimmer than the other and they kind of "fluter" or shake and a middle halo light on the bottom row keeps blowing bulbs or going out:/ (row has 3) and weve tested it with a volt meter and its hot so idk whats wrong with it

 

My hid bulb does that.

 

is it normal my friends dad said a (blank) MIGHT help but im having a major brain fart and cant think of what he said it starts with a c........................he said that maybe the company may have sent a faulty bulb

 

If there projectors, you need to rewire them with new leds and the correct resisters. Basicly the entire wiring of them sucks. We do this with all projectors we ship out.

 

I definitely don't think its normal. I'm thinking mine is a faulty bulb. However my halo works fine. Where did you get your halo

 

pro tuning lab .com

halos work gorgeous just that one middle one somethings up with it and the hids idk:/
whered you get yours

 

Im talking about the leds not bulbs.

 

like the little lights that go under the halos??? i mean we tested em and the bulbs work for a bit just go out or blow:/

(im like the least car savy person ever)

 

Sounds like your HIDs have the Y2K bug. Whoever designed them only used 2 digits for the internal clock and it flutters because it can't make up its mind between 1911 and 2011. I'm surprised it hasn't exploded.

 

those are what mkulrey is talking about
the wiring is crappy, you probably need to run a resistor

 

where do i find one of these so call "resistors" haha
and is it hard to adjust the lights so you can see? mine are angled towards the ditches.

 

there should be an adjustment screw on them, twist it one way they go up and vise versa

 

its such a pain to take these lamps out so i can adjust them......haha. im terrible with electrical stuff

 

its not on the top?
you shouldnt have to take them out to adjust, how would you know when you get them right?

 

my friends dad has like 3 sets of halos for his truck.haha. and they are like 4 prong thingys by where the bulb plugs in or what he told me!?haha i relie on knowledge full people to help me but if i could just get it lined up and not shakey and what not id be a happy camper!

 

im not sure ive never had halo projectors, just stock and retros so that's what im basing my knowledge off

 

i GAUREENTEE you know more than i do.haha. and i dont even know how to spell gaurentee

 

The stock lights and gen4s use an adjusting screw that you can access from the top without removing the whole light. The others require you to remove the light, adjust a bit, and put back in to check adjustment. Pain in the ass yes, but that's how you do it.

 

I got mine from buyHIDs.com and I had issues, but his customer service was incredible. But your issue is something different than mine. I'm in the process of buying a new bulb from TRS to see what happens. I guess it'd be cheaper to just switch the passenger to the driver side and see what happens.

Damn I'm an idiot!

 

Yeah isnt that ******* retarded? my gen 1s are like that. and ofcourse they are aimed in the ditch, ive had them over a year and havnt aimed them cause im trying so hard to avoid the pain in the ass.haha makes me want to find the person that designed them and punch them right in the face.

 

i agree they are a pain to take out and put in let alone mess with it put it in then take them out again till its right...........furget thath
