H4 Light Connector fixed.........FOR NOW.....

I posted a thread about having problems with the H4 light on 2k Max a couple of weeks ago. Well here's the update. I found out that for some reason the connector don't like the Hyper White bulbs that I have. I even used another set and it still didn't work. One of the Lo-beam won't turn on, but the Hi-beam works fine. But strange thing is that when I put the stock OEM bulbs in, it worked like magic.
With this in mind, I was wondering would have any problems when I put in the 2k2 HID lights? Again I am not 100% positive that the problem lies with the H4 connector, but most likely the problem. What I'm really afraid of is something else, that might cause a problem when I hook the 2k2 lights on. Seeking Advice......

No problems. You'll be fine. Since the stockers work without a hitch, its the aftermarket bulbs that are the issue. Depending on whose writeup you use, you wont even use the connecters....snip, snip...solder, shrinkwrap...ta da! El Fin!

I think your Hiper bulbs are blown, cant be anything wrong with the H4 pug.

I even swapped the one that was working from the other side and the light doesn't even come on. That led me to think something was wrong with the connector. Once I put it back on the side I took it from, it worked. Strange thing. But as long as I have OEM to back me up for now, I'll be fine. I'm just waiting on a friend to free up his calendar so he could help me with my 2k2 lights. it's just sitting on my desk watching me.
