It's a really standard automotive relay wiring diagram. Take it apart, retrace your connections and make sure they're all correct and solid, and see if that helps.
For what it's worth, I don't use any relays on the motorcycle. Just plug the ballast into the standard headlight harness.

Just out of interest: how big wires are you using (mm2) I`d put around 2,5mm2 or bigger wires to ensure proper flow. That diagram is correct. If turning the hi beam on shut them both then you probably popped a fuse due to incorrect of bad connection or worst case scenario shorted and fried your ballasts.

Thanks!!! Last night i checked everything and i found out that the problem gas the ground wires!!! i connected the ground wires to the screws beside the cluster and i dont know why suddenly they quit working.
I just replace that ground wires and VOILA!!
Everything its ok, thanks for your help...

So either the wire was too thin or there was a bad connection, the latter being the more probable reason. Glad you got it working, but just to check, did you put a fuse to the wire that comes from the battery to the relay and on to the ballast? If not then you should, right next to the battery to avoid any damage, a fire even if the wire shorts for some reason.
