s14 hid help.....

[Slo_lo_zenki]

okay i know i found a thread last time i looked, but i couldnt seem to find one this time.... i have HIDs in my s14 and the headlights turn off completely when the brights are turned on.... hoping to find the info on how to wire in a relay to keep the brights usable or from killing the headlights when the brights are bumped on...... any help or a link would be awesome

and if it matters i have no bulbs in my brights at the moment

thanks guys/gals

Not like you need brights with HIDs anyways. Mine does the same. But the HIDs are brighter. Want brights get a hi/low HID kit? Blind everyone lol

kouki or zenki headlights?

[Slo_lo_zenki]

Zenki, and my selector is old, so if i lightly bump the brights when usi.g turn signals, my headlights turn off.... Not too safe at night

You could use this if you plan on using relays...

Wolstentech TDR will fix you up. The reason for running a solid state fast switching relay besides convenience is, it keeps the HID ballast from cutting off and on. when switching from from high to low. Oh yeah it's true, I hardly ever use high beams, but for inspection I wanted a working system.

Relay wiring is what i was lookin for
thank you

Lemme double check my relay tomorrow, I might have done something different to that, just to make sure.

I did the relay wiring when I did my kouki conversion.

i followed a relay install write up on here, and now my lights never turn off

[Slo_lo_zenki]

i used this write up..... http://zilvia.net/f/tech-talk/359768-how-s13-s15-high-beam-wiring.html

You did something wrong, the High Beam should act as the trigger on the relay. Listen to the relay, you should hear it click on with the high beam on. If it staying on all the time, you got the wires backwards.

I fixed it, the diagram in that link was wrong.. hids working great now

Yah, I know I did something different, just cant remember what exactly. I kept blowing my damn fuse when I did it at first. But figured, that wiring will give you a start on needs to be done.

1) do bixenon projector retrofit

2) purchase a quality H4 relay harness (with a diode between low and high trigger)
