Please Help HID turning off

My HID has been turning off after a short amount of time. Sometimes 10 minutes, sometimes 2 minutes. Did some research and came to resolution of needing a new ballast. Purchased and installed a brand spanking new ballast. Issue is still occurring. Any assistance would be great. Bulbs are not old either. They are morimotto (probably spelling wrong).

You probably need a new ignitor. But yeah, check the connections to see if they're loose. If they're fine.. then it's most likely the ignitor.

Do you notice a color shift in the light before it turns off?

This is what I was thinking.
