Default HID installation

I need help from you guys. I just installed my 4100K HID from autolamps in my gs300 and the passenger side headlight doesn't work, but the driver side does. I am not an electrical expert, so could someone please help me out.

First off did you test the kit to see if the bulbs and ballasts are OK before you install them. Second ~ check your ground wires. Third ~ check to see if any wires are loose or incorrect. Fourth ~ switch the HID kit from left to right, and see if you have the same problem.

thanks guys for your help, i figured out was wrong with the passenger side light after doing a search on cl. the polarity electrode is backwards, so all i did was rotate the plug. finally i got this mod, i've been waiting a while to do this. the hid illuminates the road a whole better than the regular halogens.
