play around with the ballast a bit unplug them and put them back in. make sure you have the connector plug in to the ballast the RIGHT side in. i done that at the track last year when taking off the driver's side head light. the passenger side work and driver side doesn't. all i did was turn the plug around and plug in and both light up.
