I'm having a problem with my head and fog lights. For some reason my passenger side lights keep burning out. I have 50 watt hid's in my headlights. I must have replaced the ballasts 3 times and the bulbs 4 times and they keep burning out. I pulled the drl fuse when i first put them in. I don't understand what the problem could be. I've checked all of my wiring and everything seems fine. My fogs have burnt out 3 times now. I had 35 watt hid's in there for a while but recently pulled them out and put in led bulbs and now that one burnt out too. It's only the passenger side that keeps going out, the drivers side is fine. Any ideas?

 

Either poor installation (damaging or getting bulbs dirty) or shitty product....Leaks and gets water in them, low quality and just has a short life, etc.

 

I don't understand y it's always only the passenger side though. That doesn't make sense to me.

 

I'm really getting frustrated with this. I'm at the point where I'm basically ready to rip out every last but of wire that i possibly can, ass far back as i can, and rewire everything from scratch. Other than that i don't know what else to do.

 

Are you running a relay harness? Did you try putting your stock stuff back in?

 

Yes I'm running a relay harness. I can't put stock stuff back in since i no longer have my stock headlights

 

have you tried mounting your ballasts below the headlight bracket? Could be water getting in them. I had this happen when I first got my HID's, shorted out the ballasts and it kept blowing fuses.
maybe there is a break in one of the wires that you are unable to see somewhere?

 

Ballast are mounted underneath the brackets.

 

I haven't blown any fuses ever. Just the passenger bulbs keep burning out very quickly. This set hasn't even been in for 2 months i don't think and the passenger side is shot already. I think the longest a bulb gas ever lasted is probably around 8 months give or take. Never a problem with the drivers side bulbs.

 

There's something' wrong with that headlight or the way youre doing things, or you haveincredibly bad luck. About the only possible wiring condition that could cause your problems is an intermittent ground. Make sure your ground is clean, and tightly secure to heavy unpainted metal.

 

Ok, i guess I'll be ordering bulbs again and I'll check, double check, and triple check all of my wiring and make sure my grounds are perfect.

 

You didn't answer before, but are you using a relay harness? That, or you touched the bulb accidentally during install.

 

Have you replaced the ballast?

 

I am using a relay harness. I've replaced the ballasts probably like 3 times now.

 

Where did you purchased the kit?

 

I honestly don't recall where i purchased this last kit from. I've tried a few different brands from different vendors all with the same results.

 

Ok, so today i redid my hids. I replaced the ballasts and bulbs once again and ran new grounds. hopefully this will solve my problems. If not then idk what else to do. Wish me luck!
