Default Im so confused

Has anyone had any problems installing HIDs?

I didnt think that it was going to be any problem since i got the plug and play and i had a friend to help me that had done them before

....well we got them all hooked up and they worked so we started to put them in the housing and get them ready to put back together and tried them again and they blew the headlight fuse. so i replaced it with a higher wattage and they worked again. until we got the headlights pretty much put back together and they didnt work. now my high beams dont even work and the HIDs dont work no matter what..

we even tried the other headlight and it doesnt work..then we tried the old bulbs and they dont work either.

IM STUMPED!!
do yall know what the problem could be?
any sugesstions?

you got or had something touching when it wasnt supposed to..... never, ever put in a higher fuse for a quick fix... it could have been simple as a ground but now ......goood luck...

Check the multifunction switch. The headlights run through it.
