Relay or high beam wires

Lol, the shutters opening is exactly why you are stuck on high beams!! I agree exactly with the above, relay or corroded connection

There's no corrosion on the harness that plugs into the marimoto box . I gotta pull my headlights to see what's happening with the other plugs. What relay are y'all talking about ? Don't think that marimoto harness had a relay but it has been almost a year since I put it in

Heh, I have the opposite problem, my highs don't work. Also on the Morimoto harness. My highs will flick on for a split second and then shut off. My connections are perfectly clean so my next step is to get them to replace the harness

The Oem projectors have a tendency to stick on high beam. have not found a remedy, I just upgraded the projectors to a better morimoto unit.

I just went back out to the truck to grab something and turned them on . Low beams were on then it started flicking the shudders rapidly and now stuck on high again. It's gotta be the harness. I'll take them out tomorrow and mess with em I guess

Did you pull the Morimoto box off the harness and check for corrosion?

Did you check where the factory plug goes into the harness?
