Voltage change for headlamp help

[taderz]

Hey everyone have a question for all you experienced alpha guys. I am having issues with my hid high beams and have seen several comments about changing the voltage but haven't seen how to do that yet lol. Can anyone steer me in the right direction please?

If you are using HIDs for the high beams you should switch them out for LEDs. HID bulbs aren't meant for high beam applications due to their warm up time.

Yes I know the downside but I only really use them in the woods so that isn't a huge deal to me.

What issues are you having?

They work with key on but after you start the truck they flicker and go off. Already tried setting led and also high intensity on. Neither fixed the issue. I seen several comments about changing voltage from 13 to 13.8 or higher but don't know how to do that. ( in alphaobd)
