How To: Fix VVME HIDs High/Low Beams

03SonicBoom · July 17th, 2009, 10:45 PM

Many people on the forum have HIDs from VVME. The bi-xenon kits are CHEAP (~$100), bright, and allows you to keep both the high and low beams w/ true HIDs. The only problem is that the high and low beams are sometimes swapped.

So many people have/had this problem that I'm doing a write up. Maybe the mods will make it a sticky so others can find it easy.

When the signal plug comes out of the package, the wires may look like this (sorry I don't have a good picture; mine has been changed so I can't take a picture).

Notice that the order is brown, white, blue. None of these wires are in the correct location. Yeah, that's what you get for ordering Chinese.

The first step is to pull the pins out of the plug. To do this you need to push a small prong back into the pin. Once this is done, you can pull on the wire and the pin will come out. See below for a picture of a pin:

Pin Top (prong circled):

Pin Side (prong circled):

Once all the pins are out, take the tip of a knife (or something else thin) and bend the prong back out (like seen in the picture above). Then, push the pins back into the plug. The wires should be blue, brown, white. See below for correct wire order in plug.

That's it, you're done. Now the low beams should be low beams and the high beams should be high beams. Here's some pictures of the high and low beam difference.

High Beams (6000k):

But this thread; is this something I *HAVE* to do or is this just if shit isn't working...?

Lefty · July 21st, 2009, 02:41 PM

Edit; I'll just look and see how the wires are out of the box when I get home.

You don't have to do this. I usually install them as they come just so I'm sure they are backwards. But, I've heard that some people get them wired correctly (w/ all the installs I've done, I've never been so lucky). If you wire them up and they are backwards, it only takes 2 minutes to fix.

I believe any of the 800 bulbs will work as fog lights. I don't have HID fogs and have never done them so I'm not 100% sure. Other people on here have done it so try searching?
