Hi, about a month now the passenger side HID headlight on my 2010 CX-9 GT would flicker on start up. Today it's not lighting at all. Any suggestions? I'm thinking of getting the oem ballast replaced.
Is replacing the HID bulb as easy as replacing a standard bulb? I haven't looked at it as yet.it might be a bad bulb, try swapping the bulbs first and see if passenger side light up, if it does than it's easier and cheaper to get a replacement bulb than replacing the ballast, I believe to get to the ballast, the front bumper needs to come out then the whole housing has to come out to get to the ballast.

Well... I just dropped it off to have the ballast changed. They have to take off the front bumper so fingers crossed.You might want to try the igniter & cable before you buy a ballast. Strangely, I can't find where Mazda sells the igniter. Doesn't show to come with the bulb or the ballast. They are on ebay though. You could also get a ballast and an igniter on ebay together for cheap. Thankfully mine are still working 100% on my 2008.
