Hid bulb problems

Hey whats up, i had bought my 2000 civic ex about 7 months ago and on my way driving home from work this evening my passenger side low beam bulb cut out. i switched to my high beams and then back to my low beams and the bulb turned back on. after about 10 seconds the bulb turned back off. so i switched back to my high beams and then back to my low beams again and it worked again for about 10 seconds then cut back off. i need to know what might be causing this? im pretty sure im losing my job tomorrow and only have enough money right now to install my new KYB AGX's and Tein Stech lowering springs. so i dont think i will be able to buy a new bulb right now!! could it be a faulty connection with a wire? please post some help!!!!!

Re: Hid bulb problems

um what headlights are they the H4 stock ones? bulbs are really cheap if thats the problem check ddmtuning.com they have the best prices. but get a pair of bulb otherwise it wont match. first swap the bulbs around and see if its actually a bulb or a ballast problem. in any case, buying a whole new hit kit is prolly as cheap as $50-70.
