Default Headlight Issues

So I bought some 35w slim ballast 6K HIDs to go with my aftermarket headlights. Here's a video of what's going on.



Someone said to remove the "sentry relay". Will that solve the issue?

Do the headlights and the headlights only randomly turn off and on?

I got it figured out. I unplugged the sentry relay/headlight delay module and now they work fine.
