now i have no idea how this happened, but i got water into one of my HID ballast's and it shorted it out and now it doesn't work. my problem doesn't lie with the HID itself, but now my headlight wont work on the side that water got into :/ I've tried putting a whole new HID set up it in and it wont work. the side amber light works as well as the high beams.

has anyone ever experienced this? and know what to do?

thanks

I never experenced this but sounds like your ballast is dead. The ballast is nestled underneath your headlight. But before hesity generalization make sure connectors/and wires snap in firmly. GL- hope everything works out.

i made sure everything was connected correctly the second time i tried putting a new one in, but it still doesn't work... maybe i may have not done the wires right but im pretty sure i did....

If I were you check your fuses and double check your wiring.

try pluging in the opposite headlight into the side thats dead, that way you atleast know if the problem is before or after the harness

I believe that it is a blown right ram fuse
So I'm going to try to replace it and see what happens. I did try swapping side with the lights and it was unsuccessful

it was a fuse!
got both my lights working again!
thanks for all your input!
