Definitely sounds like a power/ground problem. How did you hook it up?

yeah that has to be a power or ground problem like weasel said. Maybe plug one in at a time to find out which side is causing the problem (right or left), or to find out if it is both.

some more details-- when lights are off no message when lights on i get [check fog lights] message -- lights on dash flicker and fogs flicker sometimes one fog doesnt come on until i turn them on and off a couple of times. so i keep them turned off. 2005 bmw X5 4.4

How are the hid's powered? Separate relay setup, or adapted to the fog light plugs?
