Dipped beam, left. Intermittent fault
I find that this fault mostly happens when it is dark outside.
It can work for a good while, but then it shuts off.
I also get an error for ILS inoperable(only when it is dark outside) .
But when I change the lights with the light switch it ignites again.
My first though was that the ballast is overheating and by changing the lights it sends a new pulse to ignite the lights again. But that's just my first thought so far.
Anyone experienced anything similar? Or know any fixes?
I noticed turning left turns the left fog light on, but I haven't noticed the right fog light come on yet, or it blends to well with the light pattern of the dipped beam right. Don't know if ILS interferes with dipped beams.
