Passenger HID out
Hello, new to the page with a question i have seen before. 1999 TL, 263xxx miles, clean daily driver. Factory HIDs, passenger side going pink/ purple. Ordered 8K HID bulbs, installed (small pain in ass) and that night, passenger side will not come on. Bulb? Ballast? Ignitor? I have seen on the forums and threads that this is an issue and I would appreciate any help/ suggestions with this issue. Thankyou for everyones time, and I look forward to a future on this site.

swap the bulbs left to right and see if the problem follows a bulb
dont expect to see much of the road with 8000--those are basically purple

After doing what the previous post suggested if you find that is the ballast make sure you buy the acura one.(you can find them in ebay at about 100-150$). i had a similar problem i bought an aftermarket ballast and it made the problem worst. I agree 6k is the most i would go.

So after the chaging the bulb it will not come on ?
the coloring of the bulb,does usally mean a bulb.
If it's not lighting may be a bad ballast.
Also if it's not lighting.check your headlamp fuses under your hood.
A bad ballast will keep blowing fuses.
