low bean headlight issues, (PLEASE HELP)
i have 07 C6, i have problem in my low beam (HID) headlights they both (R+L) turn off together after drive my car for half hour. even if i drive the car with out headlights.
when i turn off the car for long time the problems goes (the HID work again) but the same problem happened again..., every day this happened to me since rainy day since month ago...
mini relay and fuses are good.
when i put a jumper cable where the min relay goes (#47) the lights turn on, but yesterday i noticed that i have no ground. where to start?

A few things I would check:
I would ensure there is no water in any of the connectors.
Check all of the pins and plastic for burn marks or signs of melting.
I read a post a month or two ago of a guy that found he had water in the control unit behind the headlight. This was the cause of his problem.
If you can follow the ground wire to where ever it bolts to the chassis, unbolt it and check for corrosion. A bad ground is the first thing to get fixed on a fiberglass bodied car.
Good luck and let us know what you find!
