hello I have strobes on my car but Something happened there is a part in the wire just before the xenon bulb that burned out and I don´t know what is it its like a diode but with other little 2 thin wires going out of it , there are a total of 3 wires including the one that comes out from the tip, do you know what is this name because I just don´t find it in any stores so if you know the name or even better if I can exchange this part with other easier to find like in radioshack you will help me a lot. Hope somebody can help me

Sounds like it may be the trigger transformer, does the thin wire attach to the bulb anywhere? Maybe around the middle of the bulb?

 

Does it look like this...
