Lose wire by the sound of it. are they xenon or cup lights?

Faulty ballast unit or faulty xenon lamp in my opinion.

When lit do they both emit the same colour light?

 

[Emma182]

no one is more dim than the other

how can you tell? do you mean it's not as bright compared to when they've been on for a bit? they get brighter when warm is all. Try replacing the balast on the faulty one if it's possible to buy it seperately.

I'd change the lamp first, try swapping it with the one that works ok. If that doesn't cure it then it'll have to be the ballast next.
