Dip. It's always the dip if only one is done.

Make sure to wire them so the dip stays on with high or else you have a dead patch when coming off main.

Unless they are second hand and the bulbs are worn out. I recently replaced the HID bulbs on my car, I knew they weren't great but didn't realise just how poor they became until I replaced them.
