What brand/model are these bulbs? I think your bulb is just wacko.

Your low beam may be just touching the connection inside the bulb. Check and see if you hear anything when you shake the bulb. Much like a regular light bulb. When it is burned out, you hear a CLINK sound. Try to get PIAA bulbs instead of cheap Xenon bulb. In the long term, it will save you more money than to keep buying cheap bulbs.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]
