Contact manufacturer, since these are aftermarket, we would have no reference.

First, we only recommed using direct fit products. When things are changed, this is the type of thing that happens.

As far as the problem, check to make sure the wiring harness it put together. You need two seperate power supplies to 1 bulb with 2 elements. Make sure they didn't cross the wiring or send power to only one element.
