Low Beam Lights Not Working
 
I put my car away for storage a month or so ago and neglected to put the battery on tender, killed it next time I tried to start the car, seems ever since then my Mirimoto 55W (Lo Beams) working in DRL mode (first two switches on the lights) but when I switch to the third function being the low-beam setting...they go out...so it obviously isn't the bulb or the ballast or whatnot because it's lighting up in the first two settings...and yes I've check the two 15AMP fuses under the hood for lo beam left and right hand side, both fuses appear to be fine. I'm wondering is there a controller or relay for the low beams that I may have thrashed in killing my battery?

Thanks,


Andrew

1) IDK why there's a need to run 55W HIDs in this car, it's bad for the electrical harnesses anyway even with the relay
2) I would contact the vendor you bought them from, otherwise contact morimoto directly

Hello Andrew I'm having the same issue as you did! I'm wondering what you did to fix it?
