Limbat 1st Gear July 29, 2010 Share July 29, 2010 Most of the time this problem of blinking HID bulbs have 3 areas to look. 2 is already mentioned Bulb & Ballast problem, but I think it is mostly jus a connection issue, this is our experience in the aftermarket installation. HID harness & connections has to be well installed bec alot of high voltage current goes thru them....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoverofCar 6th Gear August 3, 2010 Author Share August 3, 2010 came back from AD.....and the root cause is the HID bulb. Ballast all ok. This AD, drop bumper and disassemble the whole system and later said is the bulb,....so stupid...and they wanted to charge me $700+ for 2 damn bulbs so I asked them to go fly kite...
