The IPF bulbs we were amazing compared to stock. But as for any other electrical problems, there's none. And my jeep is a 2007. Just Confused at what I should do, I need a new connector now, but the bulb I put in now works but I'm worried it might melt more then cause something like a fire maybe. But all in all IPF definitely improved vision but right now I'm just scratching my head as to why this happened. Does any know what I should do in the mean time? Is there anything I can do?
Rallylights makes them. Or contact David Stern.
Or get a new set of connectors and replace the H4 connectors you are using.
Seems to be problems reported in this thread that just popped up again today.

Coincidently, the most recent poster is also in Canada. I'm wondering about the DLRs possibly causing the problem.

Get new H4 connector's from a auto parts store and take it apart to solder the contention's ( not just crimped ).
If you can get at the connector's with out taking them apart that will work to .

Tazzdogsocal - when I hardwired the headlights after they kept going out. I did solder + shirnk wrap + electrical tape. I noticed around where I soldered, (around the electrical tape) it's black a bit. I'm sure the hardwire + solder is OK. Something is getting over powered to much on the passenger headlight. Keep in mind
the driver headlight is perfectly fine.
