HID's small problem
I got my 8000k hid's put on about a month ago, just two days ago i noticed that the right low beam went out. The fog light on the right was fine, it was just the low beam in the headlight. I turned the car off and back on again and then it worked. The same thing happened again last night, still the passengers side headlight. Im going to bring it back to the shop i got them at, but any ideas???
Its really weird.
thanks

No, But is sounds like it could possibly be a bad connection causing hi resistance somewhere, eventually it heats up enough that there is enough resistance to block the current and turn off your light. We know your bulbs are good since in HIDs they either work or they don't to my understanding.
I would check your connections first. Make sure everything is tight, Check your ground point on the harness and make sure there is no corrosion. If that doesn't yield any results. Swap the balast and caps between sides and see if the problem follows. If it does, Just swap the caps back around and narrow it down to your ballast or caps.
If the problem does not follow it is in your wiring harness somewhere. You will need to break out the dmm and start looking for any bad splices, broken wires or most likely corroded ground.
