Default HID Problem

Ok big problem!!!! I have 1 of my headlights not comming on tonight. They have been working for 2 weeks atleast and worked tonight. And after I left from dinner and turned my truck on. The passenger headlight would not come on. Any ideas guys? I just came home and went to see if anything was loose but nothing was loose.

(I posted this also on my last thread)

Mine would do that to. All I did was turn the lights off then back on and then both would come on. You might want to check the headlight fuses in the fuse box. Mine blew a fuse once. I believe it was a #10 fuse.

sounds like a bad ballast, mine did it a couple times, I could turn them on then back off and they would work again. Finally, one night one wouldn't come on at all, broke down and bought new ballasts and all works great again.

Xentec brand and I'm guessing the ballast is out. I just got them but the *** isn't responding to my e-mails for a return. And the stupid site says 30 day money back guarantee.

Just had that problem Tuesday evening. Xentec brand SUCKS ***! I've read somewhere that others with Xentec are having the SAME issues. My wife's passenger side ballast just quick working after 29 days of usage. Gonna send the ballast back to the seller, get a new one, then sell the two Xentec ballasts. Going to order a new set of ballasts this weekend. Not putting Xentecs back in wife's Armada.
