HID Bulb or Ballast

Post by **chasreina** » Tue Jan 18, 2011 12:26 pm

My 2003 i35 passenger side low beam headlight is not working, how can I determine if it is the bulb or the ballast that needs to be replaced?

Swap the bulb from the left over and see if it light up. Check the fuse too, I think they are fused individually.

If it the bulbs. Let me know. I have some spare HID bulbs. they are the factory colors 4300. Just pay shipping and I'll send you one or two if you want.

Passenger side is easy. Driver side you will have to take the battery out to get to the back of the lights.Small screws hold the cover on. Then you will get to the back of the hid bulb socket. You twist it I believe a quarter turn and pull straight back. Your hid bulbs will be held on by wire clips. Make sure you don't touch the glass part of the bulb. Just let me know if you want the bulbs:)
