Did you check the fuses?
I assume that they worked just after you put them in.

Heat is the enemy of electronics so that may be it.

Also make sure you don't have anything wired back asswards and you have a solid ground connection. Also HID bulbs take a little time to warm up so it's possible they just hadn't warmed up.

I mounted my ballasts on the frame UNDER each headlight and used that white thermal conductive gunk made for PC CPU sockets between them and the frame .....
