HID problem
I didn't want to build on an old thread but I installed some hid's and the warning cancelers and I am still having the slight flickering problem. Has anyone ran into this issue? Or know of another option to check? I don't know what else to do other than returning the set and going with another maker.

TONS OF JK OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE... Some can get theirs to work others no luck..
Here is a pair that will work but not cheap
HellFire Jeep JK HID Headlight Upgrade
There are too many threads about the HID to count.. Good luck.. I pulled mine because of same issue. I'm now running H4 upgrade and they're just as bright as HIDs

I got so fed up I took my kit to a local stereo shop and paid $120 to have them custom wire everything in. The kid who did it had a Grand Cherokee before and was very familiar with Jeeps and the CAN Bus system.
Works awesome now and I have a warranty on the installation. A little pricy but I'm satisfied after having my HID kit sit in my office for over a year.

I had the same problem with my HIDs on my 2010 Mazda 3 before I got rid of it. It turned out to be that stupid balist box. They sent me another one and it worked fine.

I have it wired to the battery. So many mixed threads about hid's and I know many people have had issues but I was really hoping the cancelers would solve the problem like it does with many issues like this.
I really don't want to take it all out and return it. But what other options do I have. Is he hid kit hat has he canceler apart of the kit any better?
