I've wired in my jdm projector headlights last week, and everything but the high and low beams on the right headlight seem to not work. The wiring is direct and do not have a connector. I checked the relays and fuses and all are good (compared them by switching sides). The low beam bulb is brand new and still will not work. Anyone know what I did wrong? I'm scratching my head on this one. Thanks.
Here's a picture of what seems to happen....

On the pic it looks like your pass low is not working. Try using a voltmeter and check out voltage on the + wire on the bulbs, if there is low to none then its in the wires. Mine did this before but its on the jdm fogs, turned out the jdm wiring was so brittle that there was a break in the wire.

Go on YouTube search for Ericthecarguy, he has a very video how to install JDM lights correctly. JDM has one extra wire for DRL, it looks like you wired wrong. Driver side has both low and DRL on while passenger side only has DRL. The bulb closes to the grill is DRL, USDM has extra wire to connect it in. Eric uses DVM to check out his connection before he wires them in.

I haven't had time to do any problem checks, but I'll check out his video. Thanks
