![]() So finally I now have a fully working headlight. Apparently the thing can be programmed if the vehicle is going to be driven in continental Europe. I thought some of the good people on this forum might not know this and be interested to learn of my difficulties. He discovered that the software in the control module was in 'tourist' mode and quickly remedied this for me at no charge. ![]() ![]() I contacted the indie Merc mechanic again and took it down for him to have another look. However, my usual mechanic (who is actually an MOT inspector as well) advised me that the dipped beam was throwing onto oncoming traffic as opposed to the hedge and this was an MOT failure. This left me having to find an independent Merc mechanic who happened to be 30 miles away but was indeed able to code it.the main beam now worked. After a few phone calls to Mercedes I was advised it needed to be SCN coded (which I had never heard of) but they would not do it as it was not bought from them. I fitted it myself - (quite easy) only to discover it didn't activate the main beam. It is a Hella unit, same as the Mercedes OEM but half the price. Thought I might share these musings.I bought a control module off eBay, xenon headlight control module.
