Dead battery question - what's the deal with the headlight?
When a battery is toast, why does the left high beam (I think) headlight light up?

Low voltage causes lots of wierd things to happen in electrical systems . . . especially if the electrical system is already wierd to begin with like the one in your X. Mine does the same thing except its the right headlight.

dead battery
Battery has been dying, for the past couple years have had a problem with the left low beam not coming on; a bad capacitor (ignitor), back to the battery, I could jump it and drive it fine with no codes, but once I shut it off it would not start again without a jump, I disconnected both ignitors giving me only high beams, I drove it yesterday for about an hour and it started up fine this morning, so I just ordered new head lights with ignitors on ebay for $300.00

Hey I purchased a light control module and have an appointment with the dealer to program it My question is if I install the module and drive it to the dealer will it or could it cause damage to the module?, the dealer said they didn't know. I got the factory module online for $50.00 cheaper then the dealer. I think my best bet is to drive it to the dealer and change it in their Parking lot it only takes minutes, they said they will program it for a flat $195.00 What do you think??
