Thank you guys so much for this. Light bulb burned out in my wife's 2014 Infiniti QX60 and when I replaced the bulb, it still didn't work. Was quoted a $2200 repair price, not covered under warranty, to replace the whole headlight assembly. You guys just saved me a headache and a crap ton of money. Thank you so much.

Guys, thank you. This was very helpful. The dealer wanted $1800 to do this procedure. I bought the bulb for $42 on Amazon and will be buying the ballast for $80 and do it myself with your help. Awesome - thank you.

Thank you for the tutorial. I saved hundreds of dollars. It took me 90 minutes, including removing moisture from the headlight unit.

I managed to replace the passenger side ballast without taking off the bumper by accessing it though the wheel well. It was a tight squeeze, I think the forward radar was right under it. Thanks for the video, kept me from spending hundreds at the dealer!

Thanks guys! I replaced my wife’s ballast, watched and rewatched this video. You saved me thousands!

Thanks for the video... saved me over $2000. Dealerships wanted to charge me $2100 for what amounted to a $35 part. To be honest, the bad ballast was due to a poor design from the manufacturer. It was caused by water getting into the housing and running down and shorting out the ballast. Thanks for the great video.

hey, thanks for the video. I too found water pooled in the passanger side ballast and it failed. Could you please tell me at what locations you used silicon? What kind of silicon did you use? Also does Dielectric Grease help in sealing and keeping water out?

[bren]

This totally worked. I did the replacement by myself

[miketaylor]

Is this the same process for 2008 G35 sedan?

If you have small arms and hand You can remove the 2 screw by small 1/4 wrench with p2 tip when you looking down from the hood you can see this 2 screw
The last screw you can’t see it in front of the ballast so you need to remove the fog lights then get your arm through that hole you can touch that screw just use p2 screwdriver to remove it
When you install the new one use 3 new hexa head screw so it’s easy to turn later the screw is number 8 by 5/8 long

Hey guys, I replaced the ballast on the left hand headlight following your instructions. Very precise. However, the question is, why did it short-out, in the first place? I found water in the old ballast. How does water get in? I checked it for cracks, but it is perfect. What do you recommend, because it still has moisture in the pensé.

Hi, what is the Xenon HID ballast part number for 2013 Infiniti JX35?

Excellent video. Thank you very much.

what if just forget the old ballast and leave it there and plug a new ballast and secure it somewhere in the back of the headlight?....that would work?
