headlamp

Hi all, The headlamp wipers on my w123 have stopped functioning. The wash function still works though. Both wipers have stopped working at the same time so I don't think it's the motors - I'm assuming it may be a relay and if so will I find it behind the instrument cluster? Thanks for any...

Hi there! I have a very strange and quirky problem. Upgraded my standard halogen W221 headlamps to top quality aftermarket xenon ones. No issues on the driver's side - works 100% all the time in any scenario (Auto on/off, etc). However, on the passenger side, when I drive the car for an hour...

I HAVE A 2004 C320 EVO AND MY HEADLAMP WASHERS ARE NOT WORKING! COULD IT BE THE FUSE? WHERE IS THE FUSE AND WHAT NUMBER? ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT:crazy:

Hello all. I will keep this as brief as possible. Are your headlamps still looking like they did the day they came out of the showroom? Are they looking a bit sorry for themselves? Spoiling the look of an otherwise very well looked after vehicle? Mottled and patchy or looking a bit yellow...

Hi guys. I had one of my lamps out of my w124 to work on the wiper motor. I had to disconn the air tube that I assume controls the height of the lamp relating to the position switch in the cabin. I forgot to replace it initially although on start up I heard the hissing noise from it and...

Looking at changing the headlamp bulbs on my C class it looks like the small cross member above the bulbs, unbolts. Is that to made to be removed to make life easier or am I too optimistic?

An odd one this. The other day, the info panel informed me that the left dipped beam had failed. Odd, given that it was working fine. Tonight I noticed that it initially doesn't work but pops into life after 30 seconds or so and then stays on. So, not the bulb (I assume) and unlikely to be a...

I thought I'd done a repair on the ns headlamp wiper that was not working. Both washers worked but only the os headlamp wiper operated. I needed to replace the ns headlamp lens so took the opportunity to dismantle and rebuild the wiper mechanism. The motor spun freely when it was out of the body...

W211 E320 avantgared (03) Both my head/lamp units have got condensation in the lenses. Any ideas how to remove.If the units need to be removed,HOW?

My right hand dipped beam has just gone. Having located the fuse box - no fuse allocation chart in it. Would anyone have the location so I can check that first? Otherwise it's back to the body-shop who changed the unit about 4 weeks ago.... Thanks. :bannana: (inserted at the behest of...

Hi folks, looks like my washer pump has failed. Where is it located/how do I get to it? If it is easy to get too, I'll change it myself. When I press the washer button the headlamps dim slightly but I get no noise or washer action. I can further test it with a voltmeter once I know where it is.

I noticed yesterday that my off-side headlamp washer isn't working. Anyone have any experience of this? Is it likely to be a straight-forward fix? Cheers,

Hi, I needed some headlamp wiper blades alongside the motor and hoses. My washers are knackerd on one side. Cant find it anywhere, isit worth getting it from MB Direct? Any help appreciated, many thanks

Alright peeps, On the 202 behind the headlamp glass the is a rectangular light grey piece of plastic. Looking for a spare set to paint up as mine have yellowed terribly ! Anyone got anything Cheers Brett

Hello folks, My father 'disputed for reason your about to see', has misting inside his vehicles headlamp cluster. I have checked the seals and lens and cant see how the its getting in. Spoke with the dealers and he says it as the lens get hot and cold and wont fix it. Think that bit is...

hi all, i was changing bulbs on my w203 yesterday, and pushed slightly to hard with the bulb, and managed to push the inner surround of the light in.. seems like a clip has come undone, does the entire lamp have to come out to sort this??? many thanks james

Hi. I need to replace a headlamp for the dreaded yearly medical test. I have a replacement part but am wondering if anyone has done this before and how big a job it is. Last time I did one it was on a laguna. And I had to remove almost the full front of the car lol. Also can the light...

Due to a change in numbers (!) I am now taking our 2004 E320 cdi (with Xenons) to France tomorrow for a long week end (wedding) Old E series I've owned I used to stick neat black tape on the outsides but the E320 obviously different. Have read previous posts and does anyone know please...
