hids still not working properly

Well one of my hids isnt as bright as the other side, it might appear that way because theres more condensation on that headlight but still, i can tell a difference, and sometimes it just doesnt turn on unless i turn them off and on again, and when its not on the other one is flickering. I went to the place i bought them at and they tested the bulb and ballast and theyre both fine, and as far as i can tell all my connections are fine, any idea what could be going on? thanks
 


Well...if there is more condensation...then replace the capsule.

As for the lights flickering...you could either get a better charging system (fixed my flicker issue I had once)...or live with flicking the high beams a couple times to power it on...

OR...

Get a relay kit...and they don't always fix it either.
 
What brand HID?

Not like it really matters I'm just curious.

To fix the light output issue, get new capsules.

For the latter...make sure all the grounds are in check and that the alt/battery are in good working order. Parts stores test them for free.
 
Well there lies the first issue.

Too blue of lights.

Anything past 8k is stupid.

Where'd you get them...EBay?

Xentec or whatever? DDM? VVME?
 


I got them from this place that sells audio stuff and other stuff like that, and i like them but i guess they could be a little less blue
 
honestly i didnt even know much about hids when i bought them and still dont know that much, just wanted them lol, guess i should go for something around 6k maybe?
