Weird issue with one headlight going out when cold.
Question:
I have the Xenon package with aftermarket HIDs. Been installed, say - 2 years? I noticed recently, when it's very cold outside my driver side will not turn on. I have to turn off the lights, turn them on a few times for it to kick in. I checked all wiring - nothing loose or damaged. Odd thing, there are no light codes when it is off. Is the HID failing? What could I look into?

Replace the bulbs. The process isn't easy enough to just swap them to eliminate if it is. I'd just replace them anyways. Shop for quality stuff at theretrofitsource.com

I simply replaced the bulb and everything is fine. I was nervous it would be a ballast or control module since there were NO warning lights on the dash. Retrofitsource was a great suggestion and I had no idea their shop is 10 miles away from me. Thank you for the suggestions.
