Unhappy Passenger side headlight faulty after replacement

I have a 2014 E350 sedan with the static led headlights. I recently had an accident and the passenger side headlight got damaged so i purchased a new one from the dealer and installed the same ballast from my old one. Now the problem I am having is that I am getting a low beam error message anytime i turn my car on. High beams still good to go but no led strip on the bottom or low beam. I changed the the fuse that was blown in the trun number 89 that was the only one that was blown and as soon as i put the new one in it blew again. my question is could my ballast be damaged from the accident or water damage and its causing this fuse to blow. Driver side headlight not involved in accident wors just fine.
on fuse number 89 there was a 20amp fuse (blown) but all fuse diagrams i find online the fuse its a 30amp. Im afraid to try a 30 amp and cause further issues with the system.

If you had a blown fuse, that means water got in it and shorted the module. Install a new module but you will require programming and coding. Also you will need to read the QR code on top and enter it when instructed.

Thanks for the replay, when i purchase the new module, should i install it on the headlight and then take the car to the dealer to get it programmed or do i take the module by itself get it programmed and then install it on the car.
thanks.
