Switch your bulbs, if the issue remains and you've checked your fuses. its most likley the ballast. The ballast is mounted to the bottom of the headlight housing its round and has knurls around the perimeter. It is easier to get to these if you remove the front fascia and then pull off the headlight assembly

which are you referring to? The headlight or halo? I have no issues with my headlight just the halo. Is there an actual fuse just for the halo? From what I see the one connector up towards the top provides power to both the halo and the headlamp (RS). My halo was intermittent - I could tap the headlamp housing and get the halo back on, well at time. Now its just off. I cant use warranty because I do have colorshift halos installed BEHIND the stock halo, which I still use and having a problem with.

I thought you had an issue with the headlights.
so you have oracle halos as well as factory Halos?
I would check grounds. I can't see the Halos on the wiring diagrams right now maybe someone else can find them

Yes, I have colorshift halos (no issues) mounted behind the stock halos for a good amount of time - and I've retained the functionality of the stock halos for everyday driving. I used to be able to tap the drivers side headlamp to get the stock halo to come back on at times...sometimes it would just come back on byitself too..now its just out and can't do anything to get it back on. I never saw any flicker that I know of either.

Ugh...

So, my headlight blew out and I figured I'd replace both of them with a cooler color.

I removed both bulbs and replaced the driver's side. As I was going to put the passenger side in, the key fob in my pocket hit the side of the car and the panic button was pushed. Everything went haywire and now I have nothing. Zero electrical anything.

Anybody have any suggestions of what it might be?
