Hey im having a small problem with my 35w low beam hid. Only left side dim (blink) a little when im driving i changed the ballast and buld. They are brand new and still doing the same thing. And is not because of the sound system because i have a capacitor and it does it with the music off. Problem is only with the left side right side is perfect. Idk its wierd.. haha what could it be???

install a capacitor and if you still have issue? add the resistor in there. That's what I did with mine. Bought the parts in Radio Shack and solder it on.

Right at the cars positive and negative wire that plugs in to the ballast. It's the original wire that plugs in to the old bulb.
