Xenon failure

LMBlau · 09-13-2006, 11:18 AM

Sometimes, when I turn on the Xenons the one on then right side takes about 10-15 seconds to come on. Has this happened to any of you?

When it comes on it blinks like those fluorecent bars.

Should I go to the dealer?
Thank you.

Mine don't do that at all. As soon as I turn them on, they adjust and are on full blast. Take it to the dealer... It's under warranty..

yup, mine turn on instantly.. kinda nice since I leave them in auto mode and they turn on when I go in tunnels etc.
