Driver Low Beam
Well looks like the factory low beam Ballast is going out, tonight I had no low beam head lights, last week it worked fine.
It works once in a while, does anyone know if I have to get a factory Ballast or is there a replacement I can get.

there is a ballast for each side. doubt they both would go out at the same time. the number is GM 89025794 (two required, 1 each side)

relay #47 is low beam relay. there is 1 fuse for low right and 1 fuse for low left, so since both are out at same time, might be the relay, its for both..
after looking at the #47 relay, it appears there is NO other in the engine fuse block that you can swap it with (nothing there with same part number). i thought there might be, so i corrected this sentence!
remote but possible (leave it to very last...)

Are you sure it's not the lamp that's intermittent? Or maybe a connector is loose?
I'd start there and hope it's not the ballast. PITA to remove.
