Default HID failure??

I'm curious if anyone has had a similar issue with their HID's? Mine quit working and I jacked up the car to access the light to find that the red wire had come out of the socket. Very clean separation.


I've emailed vendor and just waiting on a reply. Had a ballast go out within a week or so. And this in about 7 months.

He has not been responding to anyone recently. I wouldn't expect to get this resolved. A lot of those HID ballasts fail and bulbs since they're cheaply made and inexpensive to replace.
