FTO AUSTRALIA

Something is wrong with the connection and i dont know what sometimes when im driving at night the right (from drivers view) headlight bulb turns off, pop the hood and move the wire that is connected to the HID and just move it around a little bit and it turns back on
does anyone know whats wrong?
i cant seem to fix it

yeh it happens to me at times.... try taking the bulbs off and check the connnections....when i checked mine, it was burnt out and needed to get another part....so far i just did a temp fix on it....
i dunno what caused it, maybe diff wattage or some sort???

jonowong, did you install a HID kit or do you have a GPvR?

If you installed a HID kit, was it done by a professional?

This happened to me 2 (but the other light)

And HEK-71Q my connecta is burnt out as well]
it works now and then, with a jiggle

How did u fix this..
what was your temp fix?

and do u know the part No. where how to replace it...
(Wow so many questions!

i have a problem with my head light 2......

they are both on, but the left headlight is so much brighter on the road.... when i stand in front of the car they look the same, but driving or if i shine onto the garage door the left is definatley brighter.... they are the same globes too....unless maybe the direction of the globe is pointing incorrectly?

if they're the same globes, this is more likely to be a focus issue Euro

Most cars in Aus will design the left headlight brighter or point out further, so there's less glare for the driver on the other side of the road.

yeh but this is extremely noticeable lol..... if there is no street lights (or they are dim) i eralllly need high beams, and when they are on the lighting is fine on both sides.......

understand what your saying 338 - but ive never had it like this in another car, and ive got a feeling my car wasnt like this when i first got it, but i dont remember when i first noticed it.....

oh well,

my friend helped me fix the problem and we just used electrical tape to tape that little white box that comes out of the headlights on tight and now it doesnt turn off, well not yet it hasnt

ruchi: my HIDs came with the car so im not sure

im also having problems with my headlight... (driver sside)
the socket that the bulb plugs into has been burnt....
tried to look for a socket at repco/autobarn and they dont have any...
i havent tried Mitsi coz they might charge me an arm for it...
where did u guys get yours??

lol

like everyone else here, i've got the same problem

i tried taping the wire to the bulb connector thing, it worked for a while, but then it kept turning on and off again


now its happening with the right head light too (started happening when some fool reversed into my RHS front bar)...

is it the light bulb connector thats busted? coz its really annoying when both the headlights turn off at night!!!! i got pulled over the other day coz of that.... i done want any quick fix coz its just gonna happen again!!!

my passenger side headlight has been off for about a week now.. the plug is somehow broken..

i searched through mitsubishi australia, and some local wreckers with no luck..

i just ordered a used 9006 (HB4) socket from http://www.kempys.co.nz last friday.. the plug is $10 and the airmail is $7.. hopefully it will arrive sometime soon..

i was told by kempys that the latest model lancer and diamante use hb4..

would it be possible to use 2nd hand HB4 globe holder (the thing that holds the globe inside the headlight and is connected to the wires) from any other car that has HB4 lights??
