HID headlight bulb problem

Hello,

One of my HID bulbs seems to turn off after one to 5 minutes of being turned on.

Today I replaced the bulb and it's acting the same way, so I've conclude there's no problem with the bulb.

Sometimes the one (driver's side) bulb will turn off after being on for only one minute, and sometimes it takes just a few minutes.

When the light is off, all I have to do is flip the switch to turn the lights off and then on again, and the bulb will light again, but go off shortly thereafter.

The car is a 2008 Toyota Solara SLE V6 coupe.

Any ideas?

Thank you !

Hi, welcome to the forum :smile: Not a car that is sold in the UK & this is primarily an UK/European forum.

Are they original fit HID? Could it be the ballast?

Yes, it is original fit HID.

I believe it is the ballast, but wanted to confirm from other's experience.  Now I'll just have to look for a how-to on replacing it.

Thank you !
