You may want to swap the left and right bulbs first. It could be a bad ballast, not the bulb.

I had this happen, it was a bad ballast, but the dealer just replaced the bulb too since it was under warrenty. I wouldn't want to spend $100+ on lamps and not need them!

Good call.

And NO, you can't just use a regular bulb. Get them changed.
