HID / LED Converstion Help

Hey guys, recently purchased led eyebrows, and hid fog lights and low beams for my 2008 C300 Sport. When i installed everything, the headlights seem to work fine but one fog light is out. It did work at first but then died. Checked the bulb, bulb is fine. Eyebrows worked when i put them in and 5min into them having been installed they don't turn on anymore, all 4. My confusion is that they all essentially seemed to be working properly initially, so setting and polarity issues are out the door im assuming, so what could be causing these issues? Thanks guys!!

Are they canbus units? If not your SAM will disengage the socket.

beater with a heater
you will need to run resistor relay harness for both hid and fog, or grab a MB computer with developer software and turn the front sam lighting to bixenon vs non bizenon. The light output to the halogen bulbs is not a consistent 12v output, it comes on off at 1000x a sec. so use the resistor and the relay harness that comes with quality hids. as for eye brows? wtf is that? never mind, I really don't want to know... my brain hurts
