Odd issue with drivers side low beam.
Hey all. I am hoping someone here can shed some light on a problem that has recently developed on my X5. So I have bi-xenon AHLs. A few weeks back, my drivers side low beam went out. I noticed this by the fogs turning on automatically. I got no errors on the dash. I replaced my bulbs on both sides just for kicks. No luck. While I had the LH assembly out, I noticed that the ballast and am looked odd. Upon further inspection, I found they both had water in them. So I ordered, an ignitor, ballast, and clean and verified the am functions. Buttoned everything up, no dice. So I get out DIS and SSS. DIS just seems to see an issue with the left low beam. Progman shows the same thing. Funny thing is, I can turn the bulb on in DIS and I can perform all function checks that control the movement of the lamp. I'm confused. Anyone ever have this happen? Could a faulty asm cause the bulb not to ignight??? I heard elsewhere to try disconnecting my battery and trying it after reconnecting it. I hope it's not the ASM module. Not only is it expensive, it has to be coded to the vehicle and while I can probably figure out how to do that, I've never retrofitted a module and coded it to my vehicle. Any ideas?? Thank you in advance.
