Why do my low beam HID headlights suddenly get brighter, then go back to normal?
I installed Xenon HID Low and High beam headlights on a 2017 Ford F150, Lows are the only ones having the issue. The low beams would suddenly get brighter for a half second, then go back to what I assume is normal. Wondering why that would be, and what I could do to fix it.
Set up is 55W ballasts, 6000k bulbs with power relay harness. Got them from XenonHIDs. I've already sent an email for help, but they sent me installation instructions. Want to see what others know while I wait for another answer from them.
Yeah, it's automatic bright adjustments depend on where you are and how dark the area where your truck is at.
I had same issues. It's from Ford too, I don't like it either but can't fix it. Sometime it get high beam to another driver where it shouldn't due to computer sensor from truck confused and made poor judgement on whatever if light should be brighter or not.
People get mad at me for having too bright at their face which I can't fix it. I just ignore them and move on.
That would be caused by a poor quality ballast. Once the arc is lit by the ignitor, it's the ballast's job to keep the arc at the same level. This is pretty common with aftermarket kits. To put it simply they're garbage. Good luck getting the manufacturer/seller to stand behind this.
- Why do Presidents live so long? Do they get better healthcare than normal people? Jimmy Carter is 94 and still alive, George H.W. Bush died at 94, Gerald Ford died at 93, Ronald Raegan lived to 93. How come they live so long? Most normal people die at like 80-85, sometimes late 70s. So why are they living so long? Obama will probably make it to 100.
- Does my MPG seem low or normal in my Ford Ranger? I own a 2005 Ford Ranger XLT 4.0 V6 4x4 Okay, yes I know it is a truck so I do not expect fantastic fuel mileage, but I was calculating my MPG with this app I have on my phone, and the average is anywhere between 13.2 and 13.6. The truck is a manual, so to help with the MPG, I usually shift around 2500-3000, and when I'm just driving I usually have it between 1500 and 2000. Does anything seem wrong here or is it normal?
- Where can I get 55w 8000k hid lightbulb a from? Where can I get a 55 W 8000K HID headlight bulb for a 2001 Ford Mustang? I'm buying RAXIOM CHROME PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS - DUAL LED HALO (99-04 ALL) and I want those headlights to go in them so where can I buy those headlights from? And the place that I'm buying these headlights from doesn't sell those kind of headlights.
