mdzowner Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 hi all, so i got a 55w 6000 k ddm kit from apexcone. its been fine up until two days ago. heres what happens 1. when i turn on the lights after having the car started, my drivers side light pulses on for a second and then goes out. 2. after driving around for one light-less for about 30 minutes( i commute 1 hr) i turn off the lights then back on and it works, sometimes it doesnt or only stays on for a few minutes. so i rechecked all the connections and it all looks good. no frayed wires, nada. the ballast is mounted under the battery tray. it has never gotten wet and the headlight assembly is sealed with silicone per the instructions. is the ballast going bad already? i have had it for under a month.
08LGT80 Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 make sure the connections are tight. use electrical tape on the connectors to prevent moisture seeping in, use zip ties to neatly secure the wires away from serpentine belt and fans.
laz Posted July 26, 2010 Posted July 26, 2010 I say your ballast is bad. I had a couple go bad, but they lasted more than a month. To really test if it is the ballast you can swap sides and see if the same behavior occurs. GL X ---
