Folks .. I am installing an HID kit (35W) in my car. The 'check headlamp bulb' indicator comes on (55w). The HID sales tells me to install a 15ohm resistor in the circuit. There are 2 wires going to the headlamp (yellow is the juice and the brown one is possibly the return to the computer or ground). What is Required to resolve? and where to install? Thanking You Roytoyman. Cool

the lamp is being triggered by 35w you may put the resistor on either wire since what goes into one it comes out the other. i would use the yellow in series resistor install

most lamps do not have a positive or negitive side.
