I have a 2008 BMW k1200s motorcycle with a motorcycle kit from Pirates Lair,the high beams come on and goes out after 30 second and throw a lamp fault on my computer.I used a warning canceler relay and still the same problem.If I plug in a standard bulb on one side the high beams works fine.How can I get the resistance of the standard bulb to go inline with the HID kit? Thanks in advanceposted_image

You need a resistor inline of the OEM wire harness and also if you still get the flicker or lamp goes out completely, you will need a capacitor.
