Xenons......and about dying......... Posted by Herb Hirsch [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Zenon replacement, Mark, Tue, 20 May 2008 14:37:18 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My own experience is that xenons get dimmer, change color, and this is accompanied by some flickering. Mine took on a dimmer yellowish hue.....noticeably dimmer than the good one which went about 1 mo. later. This was on my 2000 9-5 on which I had installed an aftermarket xenon kit that used D1S bulbs, versus the D2S that Saab uses. The D2S has the ballast built into the base.
Others on this BB have mentioned the dimming and color changes. I don't recall reading any posts about sudden death failures like a halogen bulb.
