HID upgrade help

So I finally got all the parts together for my HID upgrade and I'm running into snags. I put everything together the way I was supposed to from the directions. Flip the lights on and only the driver's side comes on full. The passenger side pops on, flickers and dies. Sometimes the high and low come on together for a second on that side and then die. I've done a ton of searching and I must admit I'm electrically dyslexic. I've read that I may need to change the switching and I've seen the 4crawler page about it but I get a little nauseous trying to figure out the wiring diagrams. I'm installing these on my 87 4runner. I've tried switching the parts around so I know they all work. It has to be truck side. And my stock lights worked fine if not dim.

If anyone has any pointers other than linking me to scary text I would greatly appreciate it.
