Fog Light Problems - Please Help!!

hey....a while back i upgraded the bulbs in my foglights to xenon. not a hid kit, just brighter bulbs. i made sure they were 55W so as not to burn out any wiring. now all of a sudden one foglight is brighter than the other. i have no clue why. does anybody have any ideas??

When I first upgraded to PIAAS that happened to me, and it was because one bulb was not seated properly. But if yours was fine at first and now changed, then it may be something else.

Check the seating like he said, check the wattage of both bulbs (not insulting your intelligence or anything, but it does happen), and maybe try switching em to see if the same thing happens? I'd also check to see if one is pointed in a different direction, giving the illusion of dimness.... ya could have accidentally re-aimed it somehow. Wish I could tell ya more...

deffinetly check if its seated properly. also double check the wiring
i had that happen to me when installing the projectors for someone, wire wasnt connected properly.. and one light ended up being brighter then the other one.
