I installed HID headlights and fogs 4 months +/- ago. The fogs work great (so far). The headlights would randomly shut off. Sometimes one, sometimes both. I swapped out the ballasts a couple days ago and I still have the same issue. With the new ballasts I notice slight flickering before the lights turn off. I never use the "AUTO" feature because I do not want the lights firing up in my garage when it is light outside so I manually turn them on when needed.
I am wondering if anyone has had a similar experience with HID. Why are my fogs ok? Could 4 ballasts really be bad? Do I need a wiring harness?
This wasnt a huge issue in the summer as I didnt drive at night much. Now it is dark more and I cant have my lights turning off.
I am working with the manufacturer who was been very helpful but I wanted to reach out to the forum for suggestions too. I do not want to go back to halogen bulbs.
Looking for some quick suggestions.
