H.I.D turns off ? ;s

well guys ive noticed
the H.I.D. on the drivers side turns off
when i turn on my lights.. it stays on for about 5 seconds.. then turns off..
i took the light assembly apart
checked connections
nothing burnt, or spliced
i switched bulbs just to rule that out...
im convinced its the ballast at this point..
what do u guys think?

Are the ballast new or this just started happening out of nowhere?
Double check the grounds.

This happened to mine too. It turned out that the actual igniter inside the ballast was shorting out and was cutting the power to the light. I would switch the ballast.
