Default RE: HID problem

I went back to stock because I couldn't stand the blue light the 6000K gave off. (I should have gone with 3000K or 4000K) It looked great by itself, but with teh fogs it looked horrible, and I like to run with all 4 on. Also, I was blinding people so often with the HIDs, I had to adjust my headlights so that the beam cutoff was reasonable, and then, I wasn't getting that light "thrown down the road" like you want with HIDs.

Once I got my setup working correctly, It worked well for the duration of my operation of them.

9 ballasts and 4 bulbs... that sounds scary.
it sounds like you're not getting enough juice and I have the same problem with my left one sometimes but after turning the lights off and turning them back on in about 30 seconds it starts working again. If a ballast is really bad, then it's going to do what yours are doingso its definitely them.I tried swapping mines out and as soon as I put the left one on the right side it started doing the same thing. God knows how many of them you're gonna have to go through now
