Dam HID problem

Ok so I just noticed that my left bulb doesnt turn on anymore. Every time I turn it on it just flickers for a couple seconds and stops. What could be the problem

I just checked all the wiring. Looked good to me. I noticed when I took the ground wire out. It stopped working totally. Then I moved the ground wire location and the flicker lasted a bit longer. Do you think my ground wire isnt in good condition or theres somethin wrong with it

kkk has a little shameless behaviour in the past
take out the bulb and the ballast which is giving u the problem and connect it directly to the battery of ur car. if it still flicks, then i think say good bye to ur ballast if it doesnt , check ur wiring , fuse etc.
