H.I.D. problems
bought some cheap HIDs for my 2-5 civic and they worked fine for about three weeks, then one night, they began too flicker, then dim more and more, then utterly shut off. thankfully I had my old halogens in the trunk in case of such a situation, plugged them in, and the did the same, lit, then dimmed down, the hi beams work fine, but if i release the hi beam switch on the stalk they power off (hi beams wont stay lit unless i constantly hold the switch back) i did a voltage test at the connector and the hi beams have good voltage, but the lows have about 200mv, which is WAYYYYYY too low. and i did a continuuity through the bulb and there wasnt a break in the filament. please help, I hate having to drive my moms car at night. though i dont mind the heated seats.
