Default Anzo headlight problem..

My car has Anzo headlights in black. anyways my problem is just recently the drivers side RINGS have not been working. The low beams and high beams work correctly but the florescent rings aren't working.
However on the passenger side headlight everything is working including the rings. As you can see in the picture I have set so only the rings will turn on and you can see the drivers side isn't working while the passengers is.

I would LOVE to fix this ASAP.

Help a fellow Scion brother out, Thanks in advance!

yeah, yo have to open them up and replace the LED rings. or if you just bought them and have the receipt, contact the seller for a replacement.

lots of the aftermarket headlights ahve notoriously poor quality LEDs.

so either order a replacement for the faulty piece, or order new LED rings form somewhere like oznium.com and replace them yourself.

you have to take the headlight off, put them in the oven, back them open, replace the ring, and then seal them back up.

easy? can't really say, i don't really do much beyond bolt on ready made parts, i don't have the time, equipment or tolerance of downtime to mess around with DIY parts and such.

but you can either fix it yourself, ordera new set (and then it might break again) or replace them with OEM headlights that you can also buy lots of places online (but you won't have halo's anymore).

I don't know about your headlights because I can't really see the pic from my phone but this guy in our club has some anzo looking lights and his halos are lit by 194 bulbs. If you want some stock headlights or stock headlights with Oznium angel eyes I have a pair of each so just PM me. Good luck.

check the plug that you connect to the headlights for the halos, they don't fit very tight so make sure you have them secure.

Hey bud I have this problem too! Exactly on the same side. Just rub the headlamp for a little static and it should come back on. If that doesn't work pop your hood and mess around with the cords and it should come on. If u have time you uninstall them and tighten the cord.

well, they are pretty cheap on ebay, just take a look around. or you can get an OEM set for like $140 each brand new.

did u get them from fastscions.com? If so Im pretty sure they send you another pair if you send those ones back. When I got my first pair of anzos the halos on the driver side werent working so they told me to send them back and sent me another pair all I had to pay was S&H.
