Hi I have a 2005 C240 had it for less than a year now and before the summer one headlight went out and last month the other one did ... I read a post saying to unplug the battery but that didn't work and I have also bought to different headlights so it must be something else any suggestions????

 

Do your park/running lights work? How about fogs? Asking as, just trying to figure out if the actual switch has power?

 

Yes all the other lights seem to be working fine just the main ones don't work and the bottom license plate light is out don't know if that matters ??

 

RU sure that the lamps are not blown?

 

I would suspect a bulb install or contact issue. Given you have replaced both bulbs, i would re-examine the two headlight bulbs. Make sure they were inserted correctly and they are correct bulbs.

I would also unplug and re-plug the wiring harness at the headlight assembly/make sure it is securely snapped in place.

Keep us posted...

 

Sorry - I did not understand "I have also bought to different headlights"

Agreed!

 

where in mass are you? if you near i can help you troubleshoot it

 

Sorry not headlights I meant I bought two different bulbs one pair were to strong they were like 10k and now I believe I have 5 or 6 k ones that still don't work... Thanks I'm going to try unpluging them and replugging them and see if it works I hope it does!! I'm from western Mass

 

Are you saying your car has the bi-xenon and that the bulbs stopped working and then you bought replacement bulbs and they do not work either?

OR do you have a aftermarket HID kit?

 

Yes if the car came with bi-xenon lights thats what I have on their and I bought some replacement light bulbs online...

 

I have a suggestion.
Learn how to ask a better question.

 

I have a suggestion as well if you don't have the answer to my question keep it moving! I didn't ask you specifically THANK YOU c230 sports coup

 

With BiX your ignitors have probably failed. Replacement kits are available from Benz parts providers.

Good luck

 

Parking lights work, fog lights are out of the car due to the accident and I was hoping to get the headlights working without the fog lights if that possible?!
