Flickering headlight on bumps

My headlights flicker every time I go over any bump. Any ideas why?

I've had this happen on particularly bad bumps before too. I think it might be the ballasts.

I had this happen and the igniter had just come loose. Just popped it back on and good to go.

Not sure how it came loose tho. I know I clicked it tight. In any event, that's what fixed it.

Just take it off and check all plug connections.

Sounds like a loose connection IMO. That's the likely culprit
