Hi everyone,

I just swapped out my headlights to a custom set by JNC this weekend (who did a great job on them btw) and also put in new D2S Morimoto 5000K Xenon bulbs since my stockers were aging.

I drove around last night and both driver and passenger xenon bulbs were working great. I turned the car off which also turned the lights off but realized I wanted to quickly check the cutoff. I turned the headlights back on and noticed only the passenger side ignited. Tried again - same thing. Turned the lights off and let everything settle for 5 seconds, tried again but this time it worked. I checked the lights again before I went to bed and they fired up the 1st time. I checked things today after work and noticed the driver side didn't fire if I turned the lights on right after turning them off. Again, if I let everything settle for 5 seconds they both work.

I believe my battery may be on its way out but I don't think this would cause this intermittent headlight issue.

Possible bad headlight bulb, bad ignitor, bad ballast, just a quirky thing to deal with? Thanks in advance for your thoughts and opinions.

Jon
