Tonight, on the way home from work my HID's cut out. I had just gone over a speed bump(not very fast). Next thing I notice, there is no light coming from my HID's ! This has happened before, and I think it was a fuse. I'm not sure how to check though.
Any ideas?

Did you try turning all lights off and the back on again?
Mine does that sometimes when I first turn the car on, usually the driver side doesn't come on and I have to re-turn on all the lights and it'll be fine.
It's only the driver side for me though.

both went off, ya.
I did try turning them off and on, and the engine on and off, with no change.

Connection must be loose somewhere, check all you wiring. The bumb may have been just enough to shake something loose.

Hey SFW

Check the fusing located under the battery cover. Should be a 20 - 25 amp fuse. The relay is located there as well, it's a small black box that should be wrapped in black tape.

If all else fails call us anytime this week and we'll check it right away for you.

IS it necessary to replace the stock fuse when installing HIDs in a 2007 model??

Especially post 2. Not sure if that answers your question.

Thanks mit-gee-mui, but I was thinking more of the low beam fuse??

in the prolumen instructions it says to replace the original fuse with a 10 A.. just wondering if anyone actually does this?

i think your ballast is fried, did you try tuning off and on again?
