Headlight out???
« on: 11 December 2009, 20:22:33 »

OK gents, I have found I have a headlight out, no problem me thinks, probably just a bulb. Oh no! I have Xenons! Where do I start? Do I need ballast pack? Resistor? Could it be faulty connection? Where do I begin?

Just change the bulb with the one on the other side .. that you know works.... if it works in the failed side you need a new bulb. If it doesn't you need something else  .. but my money's on the bulb .. :)

D2S bulbs are needed and they ain't cheap ... this place is "reasonable"

You can buy cheaper .. but I like Osram or Philips ... :)

Been out to look, but it's like Siberia up my drive. Will have a go 2moro. Thanks for the link, I saw a facelift in a scrappy & never thought of needing the bulbs - DOH!
