Aftermarket HID light kit problems

I finished wiring up one of the headlights, and I ran into a problem.
I am getting a computer fault code saying "Check dipped beam" It appears to be cutting power to that headlamp.

Any suggestions???

It is a fairly simple wiring, but I used the existing two headlight low beam wires, and left the small backup light wires cut for fear the ballast would blow the non xenon bulb. I fear that this may be the problem.

Help?
