Check Lowbeam light "sometimes"?
 
My driver's side HID headlight sometimes doesn't work. This just started happening about 2 weeks ago. The display shows "Check Lowbeam Light". I can turn them on and off and see the light flash, but stay off. If the truck sometimes warms up a liitle, I can turn off the engine, restart, and my headlights work fine! Very Odd!

I can't get to the wiring adapter to spray de-oxidation spray on it. Very cramped space. It was really hard just to get that little bootie off it then back on when I gave up.
That De-Ox spray solution worked for a taillight that kept doing the same thing during the summer. Too much oxidation on the connectors.

Any ideas? Thank you.

My 06 has been doing the exact same thing for the last 3 weeks. I'll take it in soon and see why this is happening.
