Left HID bulb giving me a hard time

I posted this in the problems and fixes section but no one gave me any help so...

My left HID bulb isn't working and the bulb isn't weak or going out.. it's some sort of contact between wiring.. does anyone know how to check the wiring for the HIDs? Pictures would definitely help.. Im limited with tools because i'm in college and i'm driving around in my TL with one eye hahahah details appreciated !
i should also mention that prior to the bulb completely going out.. it was flickering on and off for around a week.. i just couldn't get it fixed since i brought my car up to school and the dealer was booked on services. pictures would be great and highly appreciated.

any engineers out there? lol this is an emergency.. im on a college campus and am very limited in tools, money, etc.. how should the wiring be fixed?

Wouldn't this be covered under warranty if it's the wiring?

any acura dealership nearby Cornell? Warranty work can be done at any acura dealership.

I thought some people complained about Rallye's customer service...

I'm just pointing out the warranty thing because it's free and if you screw it up then the dealer will most likely void that portion of the warranty.
