I changed the Xenon bulb in my 2008 W211 last week because it had failed according to the cluster display message.
The replacement(Osram) lasted 2 days so I scanned for faults with my iCarsoft MB 2.0 unit and on checking the headlight voltages I had - 4v and +97v for the passenger side "transformer" and on the drivers side had - 4v and 0v.
I assume that the high voltage part for the HID bulb has failed as there are no fuses that I can find that relate to headlamps.
Would anyone know the part number for the replacement part?
The MOT is due in 3 weeks and I would like to get it fixed ASAP. Also, is it an easy part to get at to replace?
Many thanks
