I haven't seen if this happens at night as well but my passenger side headlight seems to be off during the day sometimes. I run the lights on auto but they are on all the time day and night because I have a dashmat covering the light sensor and always see in the reflection of the car in front of me.

Recently I've noticed that the passenger one is off quite a bit.
If I turn the lights off and on it comes right on.

What could be the problem here? Seems like something is getting overloaded.
I'm not sure if this happens at night too, or if it has something to do with the light sensor being half covered with the dashmat? But the drivers is always on and hasn't had this problem.

Could it be a defective balast, bulb, or connector?

 

I think either your ballast/bulb going out or you need a relay

 

They are brand new by the way and the DDM brand I believe it was that I researched to get on the forum

Wouldn't both of them do it if I needed a relay? It's just the passenger side

 

this happens with my HID fogs only....and it's always the same side too.
i just turn them off & then back on (like you say)....and then they both work.
I've just been too lazy to figure it out...since it does work and all...
sorry i am no help... haha

 

okay at least someone else has the problem, its kind of annoying and dangerous at night
also will get me pulled over and the hids are brand new and were expensive

 

+1 for the heavy duty relay harness

also, check to make sure everything is properly connected.

 

This was happening to me. Turned out that the ground wasn't clean. Try finding a new ground point before you go ripping into anything else.

 

I had to flip the connector backwards and install it like that
I'll check the grounds

you mean the ground inside the connector? which ground in the engine bay is it?

 

On my HID system, each ballast has a ground wire coming out of it that you must find a ground point to bolt it down to. I used a multi-meter to figure out what was happening. Without a good ground, there are not enough volts to fire the HID on.

 

that used 2 happen to my hids but it was b/c on of the power boxes was to close to the battery so i just moved it and now it works fine

 

Okay mine didnt have ground wires it just plugs right into the connector for the headlight bulbs.

Also the one doing it is on the opposite side of the battery

 

i always assumed this was my issue... just never checked it.

 

Hrm, start comparing the voltages for each connector between each side. If you notice a big difference, it could be a short or damaged wire.

Your kit draws power directly from the battery right? I'm trying to figure out how it grounds then.

 

Any more ideas on how to fix this problem?
