[B]My passenger headlight on my 2008 G37 Turns off after a minute of so, then if i turn my lights off and on, it will turn on again for a minute or so then will turn off again. What is needed??

maybe your bulb is messed up?

I bought a new HID bulb, took it to a mechanic to install and it still does it. Another mechanic told me its the ballast module and will cost me $500 to get replaced. What do you think? I haven't heard of this...

i never heard of this happening. Did you take it to the dealer? It should be under warranty

i have 50,000 miles on my car, i dont think its under warranty anymore....

htwnlovaboy

4 yr 60k miles

dl31

oh thank you. i'll take it in next week. They all have that warranty?

htwnlovaboy

Yes take it to the dealer. Poss is your ballast

Had this problem on my G35 after I installed the projector headlights. I basically had a loose connection where the headlight connects to the wire harness. It is possibly your ballast, but I seriously doubt it.
Check the connection and also inside the headlight where the bulb is. Make sure everything is snug and not loose.

If the dealer does not cover it go to ddmtuning and get a new ballast. 500 is ridiculous

Hopefully having your mechanic "fix" it didn't void any warranties...

I must say that is a unique issue.
