FL Fog Light Problem

I had a good hid fog light kit installed when i first bought this car, then a ballast went. Replaced it and problems started to happen. I switch my fogs on and only 1 light comes on. So i check all the practical things, wires, connections etc. All looks fine. So I replace that ballast. Then it works again! for 2 days. Then the other side blows out, i replace that one, then the other side blows out again. There are a few times where both will come on and only 1 side will come on. I just dont get it. If there was a short somewhere, the fogs, being on the same circuit, would both present the same problem at the same time. What I am overlooking? These are cheap ebay kits but keep in mind, they are the same exact brand and model of the ones that lasted 4 years up until the problems started. Common sense isnt shooting me any bright ideas about this. Please help.

And also, my high beam indicator light comes on when i switch my fogs on. Even when there are not bulbs plugged in. Even put the stock 55w halogens back in and the high beam dash light still comes on. Why does it do that?
