It depends on what HID's you got, but 90%+ of the HID kits for single bulb cars eliminate the high beam function when wired up properly. You probably have to hook up one wire differently so that they come on with the low beams.
okay so i started tinkering do what you said... the hi beams work (but those are the factory ones i think or what ever not the HID's) my low still wont work
if you could post pictures that would be amazing, if not thats okay

Which HID kit do you have? You might have bad ballasts, if its a cheap no name kit. Did you just get it, or have you had it for awhile? If you have a voltmeter, check to see if the lights are getting any power to them when you turn them on.

If it's a kit for H4 bulbs it should be right, but there is only one headlight bulb in the Accent housings so unless it's a Bi-Xenon bulb setup the HID kit will generally delete the high beam function.
