Check Left Low Beam ?
I've been using the HIDextra 6000k set on my for about 5 months without problem.
As I was driving home yesterday evening, the message "Check Left Low Beam" appeared on the console. Since then, my left low beam has been out.
I have not tested switching the bulb of my 2 low beams to see if the bulb is actually the problem. I'll do that test tonight.
In case the bulb is not the problem though, and as I understand, there is no fuse for external lamp, is there any other point of failure that I can test?
Thanks.

i dont think its the bulb. its the ballast. on my w204 it happened twice. then i got a foam cover for the ballast for the left side to protect it from overheating issue. left side is so cramped it overheats easily.

I had it since December.
The HID kit is an aftermarket one (HIDextra) though, I don't see the dealer replace it for me, except if the problem is the lamp out module.
