    could be a bad ballast or bad bulb.

    a friend had a similar problem and ended up going through 3 ballasts all warrantied.

    Swap your bulbs. If the problem follows, it's the bulb. If not and you have a new ballast that you think is good, then you could look at the relay. To check your relay, just check for input power at the ballast. If you don't have power, then it could be the relay or still could be wiring. Just do a visual and check to see that nothing's burnt or damaged. Hope that helps.

    I remember when buying my truck the auto claimed to get better mpg than standard. Idk, but im sure the auto vs standard doesn't play as much of a role as it did before.

    Oh boy...
    yeah i heard the same.... im sure its because most people shift at around 2k rpms and above..... i shift at 1200 to 1500 rpm that would be my reasoning. i drive the autos every day at work... i noticed thats how the auto shifts is at low rpms. decided to copy and sure enough im getting way better mpgs. At least when i want to rip it i can :D
