HID main beam/Osram high beam. Interference issues?

[White_Lady_170]

Has anyone else had any issues/experience of this?

When I flick my high beam on, my passenger side HID suddenly flickers and eventually will go out completely... Soon as I dip high beam it will usually come back on straight away... Very strange!? Recently the drivers side has started doing the same.

Any help or advice appreciated, thanks!

The voltage drop from the use of the high beam is causing the ballasts to struggle. Are they proper can bus friendly ballasts? are you using a proper power loom or just plugging into the factory wiring?

Proper can bus ones yes and worked fine for a long time with no issues...?

They are just plug and play I never did anything with any looms, had them in that long I forget what I did tbh...

Ok but it deffo sounds to me like a ballast problem.

i brought some slimline HIDs from convert2xenon.co.uk and fitted them to my mk1 leon fr tdi. as soon as i put them on with the radio turned on, i noticed there was some form of interferance. the lights are basiclly a loop that plug straight into the wireing where normal bulbs pug in. im assuming this is just because of the voltage change interfereing. is this correct ?

Hi
I'm new to this I'm having the same issue with a Mk2 Leon.
Lights are stable unless I use high beam did you find a fix for this?
Thanks
