Default HID's not functioning properly

I just installed my DDM tuning 55w HID kit and when I turn on the lights the hi beams are on when i am not in the hi beam setting and the low beams are on when i turn my high beams on.

can someone help me with my wiring problem??? I think its the 3 prongs you plug into the socket that I messed up on, but im not sure.

Yup i have the same kit for my car and its the same bs. Hi beams are low low are high. So thinking back im sure that the signal comes from the blue connector with the three prong plug in on the driver side healight. Im guessing maybe we have wires crossed but im afraid to mess with it because im thinking HID may equal = more than one amp which f**ks ur world up. Anyone else having this issue or suggestion?

too lazy to retype lols.. but make sure you aim it a bit lower than you would normally otherwise you blind oncoming traffic.

yea it was those 3 prongs that were crossed. i wish they had just sent that as part of the instructions. at any rate im happy with the outcome.

in case anyone wants to know which wire is which on the 3 prongs.

the red - high beams; white - low beams; black - ground.

they don't send it with instructions because they probably don't buy all their kits from the same place.
