u sure its not the bulb? Same problem happened to me, and it was the bulb...

as a suggestion to help with troubleshooting, switch the ballasts from passenger to drivers side and see if the problem moves, then you've got your answer...

Hey, off topic CivicDXR, does the truck look like that now?? Matches the CIVIC, love it!!

As far as the HId issue, it could be either the igniter or ballast too. Try unplugging the bulb and swapping sides...if the same side still doesn't work, its not the bulb as Civic DXR said.

Best bet is to get a new ballast, repairing it wouldn't even be worth it. Does it a separate ignitor or is it an all in one unit?
