Default HID Lamp Flickering then off * FIXED *

So I fixed the problem of the light coming on for a few seconds then shutting off. The problem was on the passenger side when I was plugging in the bulb in with the wiring harness with the metal piece on it, I was incorrectly starting the twist to the right too late (started turning the fitting onto the back of the bulb at a different angle than what the factory had done) causing a piece of the metal plug to tough that little piece of metal prong towards the bottom and shorting the circuit. So this was an install error on my part . So anybody having this problem, it may not be a bad bulb, it could just be the way you are putting the socket back onto the back of the bulb.

Seriously....did you need to open another thread to say this when your other thread already shows that you fixed it?
