hid low and high beam not working

my car was recently in an accident, after the crash the headlight was cracked open but everything worked fine. eventually rain got to the headlights before i did, causing my hid low beam and normall high beam to stop working. i bought new housings, hid low beams, and hid high beams, installed them and neither worked. i can assume the ballast got water in it which is why the low beam wont work, but what about the separately connected high beam? also, by switching my high beam and fog lights to xenon bulbs do i need a ballast to power those as well? & is there a power rating for ballast to bulbs?

I'd probably check the fuse for the headlights to make sure rain didn't short something out.
