hid problem

I need help guys. I just noticed that my right hid headlight is not working, but my left headlight is okay. I turned off the headlight, and turn it on again, and both are working. The right headlight is not working only if I drive the car for a few minutes, and then it stops working. What could be the problem? I guess is not the burnt hid bulb right? btw, my hid is aftermarket

check your grounds the bolt might be kinda loose.
and when your driving the wire might be moving up and down.

Try the kanooter valve on the ballast. Mine did that and I had to replace the gonkulater pump, but mine were hella.

I have been running aftermarket HID's in my 02 Altima se.
Bulb used there is H1. I had same trouble with driver side
it took a new bulb to solve problem. Your problem may be
different, I hope so. I checked mine by moving ballast to
other side, in my case problem didnt move after change.
I then went one step further, switched bulb side to side
and problem moved to other side.
