Unfortunately you'll have to replace the headlight. White LEDs turning yellow happens when the phosphor coating degrades and changes color. It's non-reversable. It happens naturally or due to too much heat exposure. UV radiation can also cause it. White LEDs naturally start to turn yellow over time due to natural degradation, but this is a major degradation that you have. Your headlight might be faulty and things got too hot causing the phosphor coating to rapidly degrade.
