Retroshop Hid..right side flickering

[Ram83]

when i turn my lights on the right side flickers for about 30-40 secs

anyone have this issue?

Yup. Mine does the same thing. Flickers for a few seconds on startup and then seems fine. I saw another thread a couple days ago where JJ explained why.

If ur running the canbus adapters that's the capacitors charging up, causing the flicker. Mine do it on the passenger fog light only. I run 4 of the morimoto canbus adapters from jeremy.

yeah i got lo's and the fogs all with the canbus.just weird that only one out of the 4 flicker

That's basically what I just also confirmed. I think it has to be a voltage thing. Like the adapter thay flicker receives less voltage than the others.

I would put a meter on it but it's very cold and snowing so it will have to wait till the spring.

Yup, My driver side fog light flickers 10 to 15 times and then sometime will not come on. I just have to keep turning them on and off and eventually it comes on and works great. Not a single problem with the other 3 lights though.
