Prius (Gen 2) :: Replaced Ballast But Driver Side Burning Pink For A Minute

We had what seemed like a normal situation with the driver's side burning pink for a minute then going out. I thought it was the bulb, purchased the bulb and the light burned bright, though more yellow than the typical light blue, and then went out.

I replaced the Ballast with a different one, and got the same effect. The HID lights, burns OK for about 20 seconds, starts to pulse a little then shuts off.

Lexus SC430 :: 2007 - Drivers Side Headlight Off / On When Driving

I have a 2007 and lately the driver's side headlight goes out sometimes when I'm driving. If I turn the lights off, and then back on, it will light up again and stay lit. Sometimes it will work for weeks and then all of a sudden it will go out. So I'm thinking of replacing the bulb(s)

Are the headlight bulbs in the 2007 SC regular light bulbs that I can purchase at a local automotive store?

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Driver Side Headlight Bulb Would Turn Off After 5 Minutes

My driver's side headlight bulb started malfunctioning.

Here's the situation so far: Whenever I turned my headlights on, the driver's side bulb would turn off after 5 minutes.

Replaced both bulbs

Drivers side bulb stayed on for about 20 - 25 minutes at first then started going off after just a few minutes

Replaced ballast (new) on drivers side but same results as above where light stayed on for about 20 - 25 minutes at first then going off again after a few minutes. Each time light stayed on for a shorter period of time

Bought 2 more bulbs and replaced both again in case first set was bad. Same thing still happens and bulb tends to flicker at times.

I am at a loss as to why the drivers side light will not stay on after changing the ballast and the bulbs twice. Also, I've noticed that the drivers side bulb is noticeably dimmer than the passenger side bulb even though both bulbs are brand new.

What the problem might be? I'm at a loss now and not sure what to do next.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2008 - Replacement Of Passenger Side Headlight Bulb?

I just replaced (or almost replaced) the bulb on the passenger side of my 2008 prius. It is a HID bulb. I got the old one out, the new one in and connected and verified it is working. Now trying to get the cover back on that provides the weather proofing and unless im wrong... the braided wire that connects to the back of the bulb is in the way. It looks like it has to go thru the opening that the cover is supposed to seal... Imagine a rope hanging over the edge of a bucket you are trying to put a cover on... Am i wrong here? did I miss something?

Passat (B7) :: Left HID Won't Start Intermittently - Bad Ballast Or Bulb?

I have installed an HID kit into my Passat, however once in a while, I get a problem where the left hid will not start, so I have to shut lights to off position, and then back to AUTO, and then both turn on. Sometimes both turn on, sometimes only right turns on start-up, however, if I manually turn them off and back on, they always turn on. It is strange, but I am not sure why it is doing this...possibly a bad ballast or bulb? I have relay harness, so I don't think it should be a wiring problem.

Passat (B6) :: Passenger Side Headlight Bulb Stopped Working

My passenger side headlight bulb stopped working, neither in high or low beam. Does this point to the ballast being the issues? I've never dealt with HIDs before so not really sure of the common problems.

Passat (B5) :: Low Beam Bulb Go Out On Driver Side - Headlight Adjustment?

I had a low beam bulb go out a month ago on the driver side. I bought some silvania silverstars to install on both sides. The drivers side went fine but as I installed the passenger side the inside reflector housing came loose, apparently popping off some spring clips inside the headlight housing. The passenger side headlight assembly now pointed towards the ground 10 feet in front of the car... I tried to adjust the screws to bring the light pattern back up. No joy.

Anyway I messed and messed trying to get the reflector housing to fit back on the spring clips. I ended up having to pull the bumper apart and the whole front side of the car to totally remove the headlight assembly. Once I got it out I found these little ball/socket spring clips and was able to put the assembly back together.

Now my issue is I have lost track of the adjustment screws and where the headlights should point. Any formula such as, "park your car 10ft from the garage door on the flat level. The low beam should be 30 inches off the ground on the bottom and the 40 inches at the top. The beam should be 50 inches from the center line of the car" Something like that so that I can get my headlights back to factory settings.
