Could this be a sign of a bad headlight, bad battery or bad alternator?

Over the past week, I noticed that my right front headlight doesn't come on every time I turn on the lights (maybe 50/50). If I reflick the light switch, they eventually come on and stay on. It acts sort of like an old flourescent lamp that you have over your kitchen sink. You give it a few tries before it comes on.

Any one else have these symptoms. I want a 2nd opinion before I take it to a dealer.

it seems as if you have problems with your connections or your HID ballast is faulty. take it to the dealer.

The lights are too expensive to monkey around with and the wiring is a nightmare...dealer it is....

mine is doing the same thing on the left side...i am thinking the dealer may send me away seeing i only have 1,000 miles left on the factory warranty...would this be covered under extended warranty?

If you're within the warranty period by 1 minute or one mile, the warranty will cover problems with the HID headlights. Take it to the dealer before the warranty period has lapsed-that could be a relatively high priced item.

Did the dealer cover it under the original warranty?

I had that problem and it was a bad inverter. Take it in...it should be covered under warranty. Be advised though, after I had it replaced, the colors never match. They replaced all the headlights too and couldnt' get the color to match, so I just left it alone. At least the lights work now.
