I have a 2010 F150 and I have installed two HID kits on it now, both from DDM tuning. For the first month or two everything was wonderful. in both cases the honeymoon ended there. At two months I lose the left lamp. It will come on when I turn the headlights on manually, but after a minute or minute and a half the lamp goes out. DDM tuning wants me to ship it back for testing. I've tried capacitors and resistors nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

 

OEM HID's, the only way to fly.

 

You've discovered what thousands of others already have -- DDM PnP HID's are 110% junk. And their warranty service is laughable.

Invest in either an OEM HID swap, or better yet, either an Evox-R upgrade into an OEM HID housing ( Far better results than OEM projectors), OR retrofitting OEM ( e.g RX350, or good quality 3rd party HID projectors like FX-R's, into your OEM halogen housings.

The system kits include good quality wiring harnesses, excellent ballasts and HID capsules.

good luck

 

Thanks for the advice. I fixed it with some help from a friend. Turns out adding a resistor and fixing a hidden short rendered the problem resolved.

 

Now you can go back to blinding everyone on the road with your crappy headlights! Hooray for glare!!! /sarcasm
