I have 55w hids. The light on the driver's side, which is closest to my battery, flickers, but the passenger side hid does not.

I want to do hids in my fogs but I want to fix the headlight first, because if I cannot, then I will buy 35w hids for the heads and fogs in hopes they will match and fix the problem.

I like the brightness of the 55w hids though, so I would prefer to fix them.

Help

Mine flickered and then the bulb died. Change the bulbs and order a new set from DDM. I got the exact same advice from another member a month ago.

troubleshoot it... swap bulbs from the other side see if it does it, then swap ballasts from other side...

For me one side didnt work (when the parking brake was released), but if I turned the headlights on (both lit) then started the truck both would work. Just waiting to send the ballast out for an exchange from DDM. I sure miss them.
