Headlamp Igniter Module: Description and Operation
High Intensity Discharge Ballast - Description
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with the optional High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps have an electronic ballast module (1) mounted to the underside of each
front lamp unit (2). The electronic circuitry of the module is contained within a die cast aluminum module housing, which is secured by four screws
through four integral mounting lugs to the molded plastic front lamp unit housing.
The connector receptacles of the module are integral to the side of the housing that is sealed within front lamp unit housing when the module is installed.
The connector receptacles contain terminal pins that connect the module to the vehicle electrical system and to the high tension HID cable through
dedicated take outs and connectors of the front lamp unit wire harness.
The electronic ballast module cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if damaged or ineffective, it must be replaced.
