Hello to all you IS vets out there. Newbie here. Was wondering if I can pick your brains. I'm having a problem with my HID bulbs. I recently replaced both sides with new bulbs after the drivers side bulb blew. After replacement I noticed that my passenger side bulb is extremely dim with a yellow haze instead of the bright HID output as the drivers side. I pulled the bulb, sent it back, and was sent another. After installation i noticed the same problem. NO BRIGHT HID OUTPUT :mad.:!! I tried manually aiming, but the problem still persists. Can't post any pics yet due to my newness. Help please!! Thanks guys. :rock:

You got ten post now so u hold be ale to post pics. Have u check the ballast? Maybe that can be the issue.
 
Swap bulbs left to right to confirm your ballast isn't the issue. That way its 100% the bulb.


No two bulbs are exactly the same, most are close but in some cases some are way off and need to be returned, this is more common with cheaper bulbs are they don't have the same quality assurance as the big name guys.

Ocal, im not sure how to check the ballast. When I turn on the headlights, they are both igniting properly.
