Hi all
Quick one, my OSF HID has developed an intermittent fault- I stripped it, removed the ballast and reassembled, it worked fine for 20 mins sat on drive. When I drove it within 500 yards of home it was off again.
Switch off and on and it works, then fails again
Advice? Got MOT tomorrow!

Sounds like a broken wire somewhere, if you can get away with it, fix it just outside the MOT station.
It will hopefully hold long enough for the MOT then fix it properly when you have more time at home.
