Default HID post installation help

I just installed my MobileHID 5000k.

The kit came with a ground and power wire which i connect the black ground to negative and red power to positive.

I did not take off the battery during intall, just plugged in the power wire once everything was in place.

First I had VSC issue when I started the car, so I disconnect the batter for 10 mins than plugged it back in. VSC warning light is off now and I reset my windows.

***here is the issue**
With the car off and power on, I can switch on my DRL and HID, but when I tested high beam, the HID and High beam both came on.

Also, with the car running, with the head light at off switch, the DRL is off, but high beam is on at low power mode.......

Any advice?

eh I think I might have found the answer.

Someone in another thread mention that our car DRL is actually high beam running on low power.

If thats the case than I don't have a problem... XD

Please provide your input if anyone else find it different.

Thanks again.
