    HID Problems

    I have a set of HID's on the car bought from a forum member. When I switch on lights, right hand light often goes off after about 5 seconds requiring me to switch off and on again. Also there is a whirring sound from the unit when it is powered on.

    Any experience?

    Whirring sounds normal, check that it's earthed correctly, needs a good earth
