Default Need Fuse help

Ok i am in the middle of installing my HIDs. I've done this several times before without a hitch. Everything is hooked up right but when i switch on the lights the control module in the hid wiring harness clicks on but the ballasts dont fire up. I am trying to locate the headlight fuse. All i can find is one lableled High beam. Also, my interior dome lights arent working either. What fuse is that? The only fuse boxes are the pass side and engine bay, rite? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Your tapping in to the SJB(smart junction box),dont do that.Instead,tap into the BJB(battery juntion box)under the hood on the passneger side.You may have blown a fuse in the SJB if you have no dome lamps.Do you still have the owneres manual?That will give you the fuse listings.If not let me know,I will look it up for you.

neither light is working? i had a similar problem this week, but one of the hids was working. it turned out to be a bad wiring harness.

if the normal headlights are working i doubt its a fuse.
