HID's not working

Post by Edin430 » Sat Apr 16, 2011 4:38 pm

So one of my HID's appears to have stopped working at some point over the last 24 hours.

Is it likely to be the bulb/ballast/wiring or just something loose? Have only had them in for 2 years (c10k miles)

Try the fuses. I've had it a couple of times where one side has gone and both times it's been the fuse.
