Default HID question.

Lately my lights have been shutting off and turning on almost at random.

Symptoms of bad bulbs/ballasts?

Mine was a bad ballast. Are both of them cutting out? I swapped sides when it happened just to make sure.

I've gone through 3 - 4 ballasts now.
Lights will flash time and time again, but would remain off.
Kept taking it to the shop.
Running relays fixed my issue.
