I've a 08 Lexus GS450h with factory fitted HIDs. When I got the car the nearside dipped beam would turn off intermittently. If I turned the lights off and back on it would work again. I swapped the bulbs and all through winter the light kept working, always in auto mode.

Now that I'm not driving in the dark I've to manually turn the lights on when it rains. The near side light is back to not working again, I have driven a few times when the lights come on automatically and it works OK. Do I need to replace the ballast or should I chase loose connections?

Loose connections. As if it was the ballast it would be at the same in auto mode.
