My Ride: no work done yet, just go the car a week ago but looking to do some work soon
I recently purchased hid fog lights from a member and yesterday while driving i noticed the the light came on the left fog light malfunction, however i put them on and off a couple of times and it came back on.... So i go to the store later on and when i come back and ready to go i put the car on and now it said that the right fog light has malfunctioned and wasnt on.... But went on later on... What can be the problem?

You need to install resistors or capacitors with the HID's. Many member's have these for sale. It sends a response to the computer and prevents the error message, and prevents them from going on an off.
