I have had 4 sets of HIDs in my eg, and I have the same problem with every set. The drivers side always goes out.three times the ballest has been the problem but this Tim it looks like the ballest is fine, the bulb wen out. Does anyone know what the issue may be?

Turn them on before you start your car. I have the 55w kit and same thing. The one furthest from the battery doesnt get enough power.

Are you running a relay harness or just ballast to OEM plug?

Try a DDM Tuning kit. I run a 6k 35w kit on my Integra with no harness, and it is great every time. My wifes RSX runs the same kit, but needs a harness. They have a lifetime warranty and they are cheap, can't beat it. (i do installs on the side and always use DDM kits)
