  • Intermittent HID lamp operation
  • Dim or unstable HID headlight output

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the original ballast part number and connector style before installation. This unit uses a blade terminal layout with 2 connectors and does not include a wiring harness, so the existing vehicle wiring should be inspected for corrosion, heat damage, or loose terminals before the new ballast is installed.
