HID Problem

[jareds99slobra]

i just installed my new et of 8000k HIDs in my cobra. well if they are cold and i try to turn them on they flash and go out and dont come back on. i have to pull the light knob out 2 or 3 times to finally get them to come on. i called the hid guy and he said it sounds like my cars the problem not his product. i was wondering if any of you guys have run into this problem.

yeah i had the same problem with my passenger side. it was a crappy ballist, shop put a new one on it and never had the problem again...so i really doubt its your car lol

yea i went to the dude today and he replaced my ballast on both sides.

they are all rice junk . get used to changing bulbs and balasts the rest of the time you own them.

Sadly I think matt87 is right

I've had HIDs in mine for years without any issues. I think you should invest in or build a relay harness.

well my buddy just put some in his gt foglights and they do the same thing. his headlight hids are off ebay and they work great. so they must just be pieces of junk. im gonna take um back
