Dorman - OE Solutions High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lighting Ballast P/N:601-634
Power your front xenon headlight with the Dorman xenon lighting ballast, part number 601-095, a high intensity discharge (HID) lighting ballast designed to fit and perform like the original HID ballast. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2013-2015 Mazda CX-5, 2013-2015 Mazda CX-9 and 2014-2016 Mazda 3. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
This part is listed under both names, xenon lighting ballast and HID lighting ballast. The ballast supplies the high voltage needed to ignite the xenon bulb, then regulates the power that keeps it lit. An original ballast can fail after a voltage surge in the electrical system. If a failed ballast is why a headlight flickers or will not come on, this unit replaces it. A worn bulb or a wiring fault can cause the same signs, so diagnose the cause before replacing.

What can cause an HID ballast to fail?
One cause is a voltage surge in the vehicle's electrical system. Checking the headlight circuit before installing the new ballast is a sensible step.
How do I install this HID ballast safely?
HID lighting uses high voltage, so disconnect the battery first. Then follow the vehicle service information to remove the old ballast and install this direct replacement.
