HID not working properly when switch is in Auto position

Last night I cranked up my 2002 Maxima GLE and the driver's side headlight flashed several times and then went off. I began to investigate this issue this morning and when I turned the switch to the "on" position versus "auto" the headlight came on and stayed on. I put the switch back into "auto" and the headlight continued to stay on. I turned the car off. When I cranked the car later the headlight again flashed several times and then went off. I again switched it to "on" and the light came on and stayed on. Is this a problem with the switch or the headlight or something else? Anyone have any similar problems?


P.S. The car is parked in my garage, that's why the lights come on when I crank it in the daytime.

Switch bulbs from side to side. See if the problem switches up to the other side.
