I am trying to install H4 high halogen/low HID kit on, there are 3 wires, one is yellow, one is red and other one is black, when I connect red and black to the the headlight plug the low beam show fine without problem, but after I connect the yellow one which should be the high beam the high beam still can not turn on only the low beam can turn on. And I did check the HID kit and this H4 high/low HID kit is working find on a 2000 Toyota Solara (Solara also have H4 housing), it can turn on high beam on Solara without problem but Maxima cant..............
Please help me out because HID should be plug and play and this is very wired thank you : )

This is without doubt the worst HID product I have ever seen. If you paid more than $200 for it you have been ripped off. I assume the Blue halogen lamp stuck on the side is the main beam?

You are a very brave person to install this in your car and then attempt to drive at night

That's what advertising says.
Real life shows that HID kits are "plug and pray" and tweeeking is needed. In most cases results are so bad, due to many factors. For such a great sport sedan as the 2000 Maxima is, I would recommend the follwing 2 routes:

1) OEM HID from 2002-2003 Maxima.
2) After marked projector units sold on ebay. Cut out the low beam projector, install a world class projector unit from Hella, Bosch or similar.

U would have to get in there with a DMM and find out what is the difference between the cars. Could be issues related to DRL, polarity or load change.

ShockBaby: I hope no one does answer your question because NO ONE should have to suffer from that crap you're trying to stuff in your headlights. If I saw you on the road with those, I'd follow you and smash your car lights out - do everyone a fovour.

If the Hid kit works fine on one car and cannot work on another car, there must be something wrong with either the car or the installation. The three wires you are going to connect are Yello-Black_Red from left to right, make sure you connect correctly.
