Default iJDMtoy DRL

I just tried to install my led DRLs from ijdmtoy when first plugged in i saw a fre of the 68 leds flash on then they turned on. im sure that they were connected correctly, i tried every possible combination of connections after that and all i would hear is a little zapping noise and now my original DRLs and hi beams wont come on. anyone have any ideas?

Check the fuse? Might have blown the lighting fuse.

Yup. Check fuse. If you bumped the socket/connectors up against the body of the car (is.. the little access hole that the wires run through) while testing them, you blew the fuse. I did the same thing..

It's on the driver side close to the firewall in a little cluster.

check the fuse and make sure the bulb is not touching any metal part of the car or else it will blow the fuse....either connect it into the headlamp and turn it on or turn them off then connect it don't leave them on and connect it because it will touch the headlight when you trying to install and blow a fuse......if all else fail could be a bad bulb or module.
