Help HID Problem

One of my lights was beginning to flicker when I turned it on and now it does not turn on at all. What could it be? It seems like it wants to turn on, but it can't. FYI, I have the LLTEK 2-piece with Philips HIDs. I thought it may be bad connection going into the housing but my H7 high beam works fine so I know I'm getting juice.

This sounds like the light switch.....

I had to replace mine as well for running xenon lights on my 99 a4. Parts for $133.98...it's common problem for xenon user

here's what my experince...

It started one light goes out...then I played with the on/off switch several times...then..it came back up. Then 2 weeks after normal use, both lights were out. Bulb, ballast, everything else is fine.

Turn out the light switch. Do a search on light switch on this forum. Everytime you're running higher wattage bulb or even xenon (due to the startup voltage when you first turn the lights on), big probability of damaging the light switch,
