HID incompatibility? (now with pics)

[funboy102]

I have a little problem installing a VVME HID kit on my gf's Scion tC. I have tested out my kits on an older car. I tested it out on a 1993 Toyota Camry, and it turns out that the HID kit works fine, both ballast and both bulbs. However, when I tried it on the 2005 Scion tC, it doesn't work. In addition, I also tried it on a 2003 Toyota Camry, and it doesn't work also. Do you know what is wrong? What do I need to make it work on the 2005 Scion tC? Thanks for helping out.

This is the kit spread out:


Ballast specification:


Output of the ballast:


The bulb and the wires:


Wires from the bulb:


Honestly, I already know how to install an HID kit, my Solara already has an HID kit as a matter of fact. It doesn't take a genius to figure out how to connect wires. In addition, like I already said, the HID kit has been tested and works on a 1993 Toyota Camry, (also a 9006 socket low beam headlight). But when tested on a 2003 Camry (9006 low beam headlights) and a 2005 Scion tC (also 9006), it doesn't seem to work. Strange... That's what I wanna know. Thanks for any suggestions.

reverse teh polarity of the harness (at the headlight plug) and it should work

this happened to the h1 kit that I received for my solara. my 9006 fog light kit worked fine though.

they may have switched up the polarities at the factory since it doesn't affect the stock halogen bulbs

reverse the polarity.. I had to do that with my kit i bought from the group buy

Thanks for the suggestions, but how do I go about switching the polarity? The sockets are made that it only goes in a certain way. Would I have force it in somehow? Can one of you guys copy one of the pictures, and draw on it what I should do? Thanks
