Drl hid problem

Ok so I got a ballast, anti flicker and bulbs.... Install them when DRL are on they turn on for a sec then turn off but when I put the hi beams on no problem... I've tried switching the plugs every which way I ordered a relay harness will that fix it or m I missing something else ?

The DRL is designed to operate the incandescent high beam bulbs at half intensity (Not sure of the exact mechanism used to accomplish this - either electronically modulating the 12 Volt DC or putting the bulbs in series. So HID will not work as DRL in this setup, unless of course you modify things.

<p>Vleds sells a 12V power module which provides constant 12V to the DRL's. I have a set and never used them lol.</p>

</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Sorry I should've been more clear, LOL.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I don't have VLEDS bulbs - just these modules, which run your DRL's at 12V constant, so you can use HID's as DRL.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/acurazine.com-vbulletin/600x600/80-undefined_f3bf70896f6676908ecbae138187ab34c65edfde .png" title="" /><br /><br />&nbsp;</p>
