i have a set of hella hids (same as bmw,audi)
one of my ballast turns the headlight one, but flickers off after about 20 seconds......when i turn off/on, the ballast powers up the bulb again, and same problem.....about 20 seconds later, it will flicker off

anybody experienced this problem before??
any feedback would be helpfull
thanks

 

on what car do you have this on?

 

1993 Civic Ex 2dr

 

how are they wired up? are these retro headlights just for HID. since it seems power is intermiting. my guess would be check for relays or faulty wiring. some type of loose connection.

 

bad ground in the ballast?

its a hella H4/9003 HID Kit

glad to see you found it.
if you don't mind me asking, where did you get it. looking into doing a hid system.

 

didnt fix it yet, i was suggesting that the ballast interally has a bad ground

you can get the kit @ any webpages, just make sure they sell it with a warranty or you'll be stuck like me
