Wanted to change my stock yellow high beam (DRL) bulb to an LED bulb i bought from jdmtoys I also changed the parking light to LED and it works perfectly, so after changing the high beam bulbs it worked for few seconds then stopped working... I put back the stock high beam bulbs and it still is not working did i blow a fuse or something? Now when I turn the high beam on my headlight turns on instead of the high beam.... Can someone tell me what went wrong

This is the bulb i purchased

I hope you know when you change to a LED DRL you WILL lose function of high beams. I'm not sure why it won't work after you plugged back in the stock bulbs but high beams aren't supposed to work if you have LED's.

i changed my DRL to LED also. for it to be able to work you need the decoder kit. bought it from JDMtoy also. this is the one i bought and it works perfectly

It sounds like you blew a fuse, you're headlights should always come on when your high beams are activated. However, I'm pretty sure you loose high beam functionality when you switch to LED or HID. But if you put the stock bulbs back in without the decoder and it doesn't work then you blew a fuse.

Ya i put the stock bulb back in without the decoder and still does not work. I think I also blew a fuse.
I opened the fuse box saw the #15 fuse took a few of them out but can't tell which one is blown not even sure which fuse is for the high beam I'm a nooby when it comes to stuff like this

It did come with the decoder kit actually it worked for a few seconds with the decoder kit i tried it without the decoder kit it flickers slightly, but I'm sure i blew a fuse because now the high beam function doesn't work at all when i put back the stock bulbs

Now need to figure out which # is the fuse to change it. Bad situation

Ya i know you lose the high beam function but the bulb does not even turn on to work as DRL =/

Just checked out the owner manual and seems like #15 is the fuse for the highbeam, but not sure which fuse box its located in if I'm not mistaking car has 3 fuse box location and a few fuses that are #15

It is under the hood on the driver's side. (At least on the 450h)

yeah its under the hood on the driver side. when i first installed the kit i blew my fuse also. when you open the fuse box its on the left side. you wont see the fuse its on the side. just pop it out and its the top fush #15

I 2nd that notion, its on the driver side for my gs as well. flip the cover over and it will tell you which fuse your looking for. You also may want to check the polarity of the lights before reinstalling.

Just checked the fuse and one of the #15 (blue fuse) was blown!
Changed it and now works perfectly. Installed the LED now looks perfect.
Will upload some pictures now.

Factory bulbs are yellow why would you prefer an yellow parking light?

Get the bulb i got from jdm its $30 and its very bright and amazing white light output.
