About this deal
If your system produces sparking or other electrical sounds around the ballast, it may also be an indication of damage. Other weird noises like humming or buzzing, particularly when your HID bulbs are not on, can indicate that they are encountering a voltage regulation issue. This is the best digital ballast I can possibly recommend: excellent price point, will fire 600 and 1000 watt MH & HPS bulbs. comes with a lit digital screen, a built-in timer, and other high-end perks. All ballasts will eventually fail, and in time you’ll find yourself needing to replace an LED lighting ballast for lamps that don’t technically require one. However, a non-ballast-compatible LED lamp wouldn’t work at all until you’d removed the ballast entirely and wired in the correct driver system, which would usually mean significantly rearranging or replacing the existing fixture. If your D2S bulb turns off, the ballast will automatically restart it within a microsecond. This happens so fast you may not even realize that your bulb shut down in the first place. But, as your bulb ages, it may turn off more often.
Now if both HID bulbs have gone out, you may have a different situation on-hand. Since it’s unlikely that both bulbs have burnt out at the same time, you may have an issue with something further upstream. The problem could lie with the fuses, relays, ballasts, wire harness, or the more unlikely case where both bulbs have burned out.

If the voltage is too high or too low, it can lead to premature bulb failure or reduced light output. By testing the voltage output, you can determine if the ballast is delivering the correct amount of power to the bulb. If only one HID bulb went out, then you’d be almost certain that that particular bulb has burnt out and needs to be replaced. If this is the case, simply proceed straight to taking that bulb out and inspecting it. Replace the HID bulb as required and it should fix your problem.
