Hi i have a 2000 jeep grandcherokee limited. I just bought this Hid kit of ebay. https://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/dll?ViewItem&viewitem=&item=230109562375
I installed it but the daytime running lights are flickering but when i turn my headlights on they stop. (the day time runing lights are the same as the normal low beam headlights.) Can anyone help me. I guess i could turn off the daytime runing lights but that will cost me 80 dollars to have the dealership reprogram. Can i change some fuses?

I'm no expert, but from what I know most daytime running lights don't operate at full power.  It may not be enough power to keep the ballast on. Try using a relay to power each ballast with the headlight wire as a turn on.

Are the daytime running lights different bulbs the the HID kit? If do i would just disconnect the bulbs from the running lights.
