Can you take pics of yours? Might be more helpful if we can see what you're working with. If in doubt try different combinations and you'll know which is which.

here is what i have tried:

picture the car harness looking like this 1 3
2

The highs work when I connect the (common)black to 1 and the red to 3 OR the black(common) to 3 and the red to 1...i guess polarity is not an issue.

the LOWS ONLY work when black(common) is 2 and the red is 3. Will NOT work when I switch them.

I'm starting the think that the manufacture mixed the wires around....cause this makes no sense to me. If that's the case, it should be like this:
1. common
2 hid low
3 high beam

...does any of this make sense or did i have too many "special" brownies today....
