Default Dashboard light problems...

After I installed my DDM 6000k HID's, sometimes when I use my right turn signal it shuts off my headlights and my dash lights. Now when I say dash lights I mean the speedo and tach and such. My airbag light stays on as well as the LCD screen. Also, the lights for the numbers on the radio go out. I was living with it and ignored it but tonight they just kept flickering on and off randomly multiple times within a 15 minute drive.

I'm lost as to what this could be, cause electrical issues are not my thing.

What happens when you jiggle your key in the ignition when it is happening, that would be a possible cause.

when i put mine in, all it did was blow the fuse for the headlights, so i replaced the 20 with a 30, and have had no problems since.

but for the flickering, i have no idea what that could be caused by.
