My Z has the Hella HID kit on which was from a group buy on here years ago. And first the right headlight went out (not main beam), so i thought it was the bulb, tried it in the left side and the bulb worked. So i thought it must have been the ignitor (the kit has seperate ignitors and ballast), tried plugging the right one into the left and it sparked, still no light from the bulb, and now non of them work.

So my question is, does anybody, maybe from the group buy, still have the wiring diagram, or had this problem themselves and solved it.

Or know a good auto electrician in the northwest that can sort this problem out.

This is the link for the original group buy.

And ill put some pics of the parts of the kit.

Dont all jump in at once!

Danny, save your money using auto electricians, buy a new kit from DTA ( Trader here) they are so much better value now, easy to fit and better than the ones you have and come with a warranty, have used the DTA supplied kits and they are real good.

Hi Danny,

 

I know we've gone through 99% of the options via e-mail last week but I thought I'd jump in here.

 

Can you e-mail me a close-up picture of the writing on the ballast please as well as a picture of the igniters/starters. I have a source that has these ballasts and starters in stock but I need to be 100% sure we are talking about the same thing. Also, a pic of the connector that leads to the bulb would be useful if you can get me one.

 

Regards,

 

Dan

I have a set from the original GB and there wasn't any wiring diagram. Mine were always crap (one cutting out and then just didn't work) and it turned out to be the bulbs.

Ill take some close pics as tommorow. But i dont know weather its the ignitors, ballasts or bulbe now, because nothing works on either side of the car. i know both bulbs worked. But when i started trying everything else on the working side it all went wrong.

The reason i havent just bought a kit from DTA is because the headlights have been modified to take this kit so the other kit wouldnt fit.

Im now looking into new headlights and a kit from DTA, ive found a site that sells all the parts for my it but just for 1 ignitor its £60. And i dont know its that at fault.

Id rather have a kit thats known and has readily available spares.

cheers danny for looking into this and thanks everyone for the replies.
