need HELP with Umnitza DDE's!!!
 
need help with my Umnitza DDE's..well I came to the unfortune of breaking one of the rings while disassembling my headlight a few months ago...didnt have time to take everything off so I just unplugged all the wire harnesses so I wouldnt have to use them until the ring was replaced..well finally today I installed the new ring...everything went well up until I went to plug all the wires back in...the drivers side rings were connected with no issues, but when I came to the passenger side it seems that I have nothing to connect the wires to? Is it me or is there supposed to be another little box with connections (female end) to connect the wires leading from the rings (male end) to?
Am I missing something here..because I never took anything out, just unplugged the wires...somebody please help...it would be greatly appreciated...

Your supposed to have 2 black ballasts. They both connect to the wiring harness. Since you have the driver's side working, it should be the same on the passanger side. The rings connect to the ballast then the ballast connects to the wiring harness.

Maybe it's somewhere in there, you just don't notice it. I've "lost" them before. :hide:

yap one ballast on each side of the headlights. and each ballast has 2 out puts to plug the rings.

well guess Im missing the ballast...I looked everywhere..Im thinkin it got takin out when I had my new tranny put in...thats the only possible way it could have disappered...would I have to order the new ballast and connectors from Umnitza or do they sell them out in town just like that??

Umnitza sells them. I haven't seen them anywhere else. Did you have the ballast when you first put them in or you never got two?

Oh I had two of them..just makin sure because didnt wanna think I was crazy or something..LOL..the DDE's were workin great, I was one of the first set of 5th Gens to have them on when they first came out...

yes, Umnitza sells them seperately.
