Well today i installed my HID foglights
they worked just great
then an hour later i tried to turn them on and i get a clickling/popping noise like the bulb is trying to ignite but cant.
even when i take the bulbs out i can still hear the clicking noise from the wiring.
i changed the fuses and checked the connections theyre all soldered fine
any ideas?:mad:

I installed HID fogs already.
I switched out the fog light fuses to a bit higher.
I think to 15A.
Let me know, because thats a weird issue.

Sounds like there's some arcing going on. Turn them on and look in the housing to see if there is any sparking or arcing around the housings. If there is, you may need to insulate the area with a little bit of electrical tape/insulation.

Are the wires that you have use at the right AMP level to carry the current needed for the lights??
