Temperary HID Fix

I've heard of a couple people having a leveling problem with their HID's in that they will start moving up and down on their own. I have the same problem but since Mitsu has to order the part, I found an easy way to keep it from moving. I found the HID would only start freakin out while in the highest position "0". I put them down one notch to "1" and it doesn't do it anymore. I like having them at the highest position but this will do until the part comes in and I don't have to mess with the switch all the time to get it to stop. Just thought it'd be helpful for those that may be out of warranty or currently have the problem

Yeah, I just realized I spelled temporary wrong in the title...

So does Mitsu order the part under warranty or how does that work? I've noticed my headlights do that too.

Yeah I just took it in and they said it could either be the motor or the housing. They said it was the housing and they ordered me a new one. It's there but I keep forgetting to schedule an appt I was even 200 miles out of warranty
