Xenon bulb flickering
She's on, she's off. She flickers, then dims, turns off, then turns back on...maybe she's putting on a show for me, or just trying to **** me off. Whatever, she's accomplishing the latter.
Anyway, is this a sighn of the bulb going out, wiring problem or ballast going out?
She's an OEM phillips 4300K bulb. Retrofitted.
