.... Try switching the bulbs to the other side and if the same side still doesn't work then your ballast is probably bad (if you car is equipped with HID's)...

Does your car have factory HID's?

If so, definitely your ballast that is bad. Switch bulbs and if same side isn't working, ballast for sure.
