Some hids have a low voltage restart problem - try starting the engine then turning on the low beam. Let us know...– Solar MikeCommented Apr 2, 2019 at 5:26

With oem bulbs they did work, they told me i needed some resistors, but they arent flashing– Eduardo GuerraCommented Apr 2, 2019 at 21:59

ok this is usuallly associated with an earth or ground[fault . ie the earth strap from body of car to engine is loose corroded or missing .. so make sure there is a good strong copper wire connecting the body of the motor to the engiee . just find a bolt on the engine that you can put the earth wire on to and another point on the body of the vehicle where you can bond the two tightly together.. try this and come back and tell us if its a fix.

I checked all the ground and it didnt work, i put the oem bulbs and they did work, but not with the hid Commented Apr 2, 2019 at 21:59
i have this same problem with my family car, the culprit is wrong connection on my relay.
relay for car usually have 2 out
-
- NC (normally Closed) meaning without input voltage in relay this output still contact (will have output voltage)
-
- NO (normally open) meaning in normal condition (without input) is no output.
you are probably connecting the NC connection to your low beam and the input from relay is jumped from your battery (ACC)? please check it again if you have right connection between your switch lamp - relay - relay (probably you have original relay below your dashboard, please double check)
