Drivers high beam always on.
Hey guys. Even when I only have my low beams on, my drivers high beam is always on. To get the passenger on, I have to turn on high beam. So that one works as it should. Anyone ever seen this ?

Your high beam bulb also acts as your fog light bulb. I wonder if that bulb is starting to have issues causing it to malfunction. Try switching those bulbs side to side and see if the problem follows the bulb. If it does replace the bulb, I'd replace both fog/high bulbs. If it doesn't it's either a funky ballast or a wiring issue.

Fixed but another issue now
I was just the bulb. Popped the new one in and its fine now;
My low beam is new and keeps blinking out. I have to turn the light off and on again for it to come back on. Also, it like pulsates.. You think I need a new ballast?

I've been using the metal case 35w innovated Amazon ballasts for over a year with no flicker and good light output, and they're like 10 bucks each.
I never leave home without a spare ballast as most cheap ballasts are basically consumables (but are priced accordingly). If you're running old ballasts you might as well just replace them.
