R34 Gt-t Xenon Lights Busted

[Amadeo]

Hi guys,

My left xenon light seems to be busted, though I'm not sure. It's lost the bright white light and is emitting a rather dull purple light. Can anyone shed some light on this matter? Is it busted or is some cable disconnected?

If it's busted where can i get it fixed (I'm in Sydney) and is it expensive?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Regards

Might want to take it to an auto electrician to have a look at.

Just an update. Now the xenon part of the headlights is completely busted, the middle part of the headlight. I know i can take it to an auto electrician but does anyone know of any place that deals with genuine xenon lights for skylines? Or should i go to a nissan dealer whom will most likely charge an arm and a leg....

Does anyone know whether it could be the bulb or the gas unit?

that usually means the bulb is worn. bite the bullet and ahve it replaced and never look back. it's not that expensive.

Although discharge lamps last a lot longer than filament bulbs, nothing lasts forever.

Just to add, the reason why this happens is because it's different to a filament bulb. when the filament one gets old, it 'blows' which means no more light.

Xenon bulbs don't actually have a filament, so they can't blow. But a combination of the gases escaping, and also electrode migration reuslts in this happening.
