my HIDs are acting funny...did they blow?

hmm 2nite jus as i was coming home like 20 mins ago, my driver side HID lamp shut off...but then when i turned off the headlights and turned them back on, it would turn on again, but then after like 3 mins or so, that one would shut off again...it would turn back on so its not completely blown, but its acting funny cuz it keeps wanting to shut off...balast? it has been raining alot here for the last 2 days, u think any water got in and hit the balast sumhow? also another thing, my passenger side is less blue now too for sum reason...it looks only white actually..and i know its not my eyes seeing things...anyone know wut this could be?

Switch bulbs and see if the problem persists on the same side or if the color change also reverses, to isolate a bulb problem.

Also, make sure you connections are sound, particular the harness grounds to the chassis and the 9004 connectors to the HID wiring.
