Default HIDS acting weird?

Installed a pair of DDM tunning HID's on the 250 acoulple of months back but am now having problems with it. For some odd reason, when i start my car, the right light will not turn on. I have to close the light and open the lights repeatedly until the light turns on, which starts back up randomly.

Does anyoen think this is a problem with the relay or ballast? I think its probably the ballast not turnign on correctly. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks

Sound like a problem with the ballast. I would recommend contacting ddm as their kits are lifetime warranty. I've had their kits on most of the cars/motorcycle I owned. Only one ballast went bad causing my fuse to pop, even after I just barely put in a new fuse. Took it to their Huntington beach store and they tested it, turn out it was a defect so they gave me a new one on the spot.

Yup, def sounds like a ballast problem. You have a lifetime warranty, use it!
