2004 Lincoln Navigator with D1R HID lights. The passenger side comes on fine. The drivers side comes on for a couple of seconds then shuts of. It makes a humming noise while it's on. Bought an Autozone replacement, it does the exact same thing.

Your bulb could be bad. With gloves or a plastic bag covering your fingers, remove and switch bulbs to see if problem moves and follows the bulb. If problem is still on Drivers side, I believe these high energy systems used 2 headlight relays, one for each side. Could be you changed the wrong relay(you did not say if you replaced a bulb or relay).

    The consensus seems to be that usually the problem is with the ballast. The general diagnostic routine is 1. Check the fuses. There is actually one fuse for each side. 2. Check the bulb by switching sides with them. 3. Check the ballast by switching sides with them. 4. If you've gotten this far, you're probably unlucky enough that your problem is in the wiring harness.

2004 Lincoln Navigator> How do you tell if your head lamp bulb is HID or not?

Look at the existing bulbs.

HID bulbs are a a different shape and have a high voltage ballast because the are a high voltage arc lamp.

As opposed to a standard halogen bulb that has a filament.

The light from HID is much brighter and often brilliant white or blue-white.

Where in the passenger compartment is the fuse box located on a 2001 lincoln navigator

Check at the foot of driver side. On newer models check passenger side. You should find a rectangular panel in the right corner. Remove it to find the fuse box.

There should also be an additional fuse panel located on the drivers side under the hood, in the engine compartment.

HID Headlamp flickers and then shuts off withing a few seconds after coming on.

Sounds like the head light is defective or the driver for the light. Normally both are replaced.

2004 Lincoln Navigator low beam headlight went out so I changed the bulb and fuse but it still does not work.

If you have the HID bulbs check with an Autoparts store like Autozone. I believe the right and left headlights have separate Relays in the Powerbox. It is possible that there are 2 low beam and 2 high beam relays total. They pull too much power for both sides to be wired together and may wire the high beams separate too!
