    Just earlier this week my passenger side HID would flicker but not stay on when I turned the switch to light’em up. I figured it was a ballast and decided to put the stock bulbs back in tonight. Well the passenger side stock bulb lights up and so does the high beam bulb at the same time??? I don’t even have the switch set to high beams. At the same time, the driver side low beam is bright but the high beam is very dim. When I push the switch to high beams, only the passenger side goes out completely. Also I have no Cruise Control and got a P0564 code (Cruise Control Switch Circuit Malfunction) once a couple weeks ago. Haven’t been able to replicate code.

    There’s way too much to even bother typing. Here’s pics and a video. Click on the first one to see the video

    That's the spirit!

    If you are installing at work after hours.. LMK, I'd like to see how ugly of a job it is.

    I had a light issue like that and it was a bad ground, behind the headlight but didn't have the cruise control nor parking light issue you're experiencing.

    Problem fixed. Bad ground near the headlight. I completely missed that ground before. I replaced the CC switch and the CC is back!

    Sorry Bill, I got transferred to Boston RD. This is the instructions I followed, http://www.instructables.com/id/How-...n-04-Pontiac-/

    Putting the cover back on is a *****!

    Now you are up on BR. That sucks distance wise for me. LOL. Probably a nice bit closer to home for you.
