Default 3 headlight mod kit

I bought a 3 headlight mod kit from Quad-o-vator for my 99 Sportsman 500 and now my lights flash like strobe lights, anybody know why this is happening?
Can't I just remove the 3 light mod diode and replace it with a jumper wire?

Sounds to me like if you have it wired correctly the diode might be bad. I'd contact them and let them know what it's doing. For no more than they cost they might just send you another one free of charge. I would'nt just use a jumper, the diode's in there for a reason.

Greg at quad-o-vator said my HID light combination needs to much power at start up for the diode, so he said I'll need to swap the diode with a relay.

sounds strange. a jumper wire will make all your lights work reguardless if the switch is in high or low beam. dose it work like its supose to? low is just low beam and high has all 3 lights on? what flashes, high beam, low beam, all 3?

if anything change it to a relay.
