LED headlights and MBSCA harness kit?

Hi guys,

So I am doing the total facelift of my W221, and just "fell" over a set of LED ILS with nigh vision, active curve light etc, headlights, genuine MB, on a danish site for second hand stuff.. The seller told me they were only used a couple of days, as he have sold the car.
Together with the headlights, was included, what the seller told me is a complete harness kit, from MBSCA: Http://www.mbscashopen.se/s-klass/w2...sen-adapterkit

The seller told me that this should be 100% plug n play, and only thing to is take the old headlights out, plug in these, and everything should work without any issues.

However it does not. :-(

The headlights only lights op, no curving, no "long light" (sorry, don't know the english word for "long light" in english, but its the one you use when you want to "see long" he he). The turn signal seems to work, when activating the turn signal, and other than that only the outer bulb and the LED light at the bottom of the headlight works..

I have a MB Star tester, and tried to connect it, and it gives error on SAM-driver, and both Xenon headlights. When going "in to the Xenon headlight", I get message that Xentry can't communicate with the headlights, and I should check connection etc...

Anyone tried these before, and know if something need to be done, or have the seller just cheated me and sold me some defective headlights/modules or something?

Here is some pictures, showing how they "work":

Video showing how the lights operate when in the dash put in "Automatic".. In the end of the video my brother is trying to activate "long light", but as you can see, no result.


Best regards,
Michel
