HIDs faulty?

[Eren_13]

Hey everyone,

I've had HIDs on for about 3 month now and last week I noticed the light output seemed to be an actual blue rather than the 6000k white. I got in touch with the seller who I had the bulbs from asking for a replacement as I'd had some flickering too. He suggested it was the ballast and that I replace them with the canbus ones. I replaced the ballasts and now the lights are completely white which was a shock but last night the left one went out - I turned off my lights and back on again and they both worked. Do I need canbus ballasts or was the seller trying to just get another sale? As far as I was aware, the ballasts I was using were canbus but he wanted to sell me some for nearly £40 just for ballasts. I should point out that I'm using a bi-xenon relay that goes into the stock light fitting also and not to the battery. Could this be an issue? Don't really want the lights going out on me on a dark road!

Thanks!
