Hid's To H1

[shinobi_s14]

I bought my car with aftermarket H1 HID's already installed but I wanna change them back to normal H1 halogen bulbs, the ground wire seems to be bolted to the headlight connecting it to the ground wire that runs to the ballast. I disconnected the ballast live wire from the live wire on the headlight and replaced it with the halogen bulb but it doesn't light up. Could it be the grounding?

Help

U need a multi meter of some sort to ensure 2 things:

1: you have correct voltage

2: the ground you are using is a good solid ground of these 2 things are good than it must be the globe. Don't forget u can't touch the halo globes with ur fingers u need to use a cloth or

A rag.

Okay so I'm assuming that the bulb needs 12v to run?

I'll test it as soon as I can get my hands on a multimeter, and I just bought new bulbs so it couldn't be that.

Thanks mate
