Default Eagle Eye Halo LED Fogs

Good evening all,

Recently bought an 08 GT that already had some stuff done to it (id' rather do it myself...but, it was a good deal) and one of the upgrades was an HID conversion kit on the 2 headlights, and replacement halo fogs.

For the last month or so, they have all be doing great, but since 1-2 days ago, the drivers side halo on the fog light isn't as bright as the passenger side, and once I start driving, after about 10 seconds, it shuts off. The fog light itself still works, but the halo isn't responsive.

If I turn off my headlights and turn them back on, it does the same thing. Turns on for about 10 seconds, then shuts off.

Sitting in my driveway if I turn them on, they stay lit.

I have no idea how to figure out what's happening, as I've taken the grille off and the cabling is all snug, wrapped, no kinks, everything this tightly plugged in. I don't know where to go from there.

Any ideas or tips/pointers would be super duper appreciated.

Thanks everyone!!!

The halos have ballasts that all eventually go bad. They do not like moisture at all. I even tried using rtv to seal everything up on some new ones once but they still didn't last. Too bad because I liked the look with center fog grille I was running at the time.

I'm stuck on the part where they stay on in your driveway. That's the sort of thing that'll drive you nutz.
