Exclamation Parking Sensors Going Off Randomly

It's been a couple months since I installed the HID kit for my fog lights and for the last two weeks my parking sensors go off at random times. It happens when Im on the highway, pulling up at a light or just driving around in the city. It usually the front passenger one that goes off. The reason why I think it has something to do with my HID fog lights is cuz whenever they are on and I'm pulling into he garage the sensors don't beep, but as soon as I turn the fogs off they start going crazy like they use to before I installed the hid kit. Does anyone have any idea why my parking sensors do that? Anyone else experience this? Please help.

I have a similar problem. It started a few weeks after I installed the HIDs and whenever the lights are on and the car is idling parked or at a stop light/sign, the parking sensors would go off from anywhere between a second to until I start moving again. I read somewhere that it might be EMI from the ballasts but it doesn't seem likely. I have tried replacement ballasts with the same results and I have also done the same install w/ same ballasts on another 10RX350 with zero problems.
