High Beam Headlight Malfunction

Sphinx2000 · Jan 19th, 2024, 18:06

Hi,

I had "High Beam Headlight Malfunction" come up on the dash today.

Was working perfectly fine yesterday as I was using Active High Beam Assist (the one where is automatically disables certain lights so it doesnt blind the oncoming driver).

Activating High Beam - shows one of the little matrix LED on drivers side is not working.

Last night the temporature dropped to -6, and the car was frozen solid this morning. I am hoping it might just be moisture.

Anyone had this issue? Was it just the module? Any idea of rough costs?

Thanks.

Shouldn’t be …but Could be moisture or frost….why not let us know if it repeats itself when the temperature rises in a couple of days

Could be temperature related but unlikely. If an LED module has failed the whole headlight assembly has to be replaced at a cost of £1,000+.

In the last 9 months, I’ve had this error on my 90 a couple of time.
After 10mins or so, it works fine.

Just put it down to a glitch.

I had this error on and off for 2 years now. Dealer recalibrated the level sensors and flashed the module with latest software. Now, I get it very rarely and it has not gone worse.

Just to update it came back - looks like I will need to book in to get it diagnosed.
