R34 Headlight (help)

[Leeman]

My drivers side xenon headlight is not working.

Could someone give me advice on how to fix it?

Would it be a fuse or do i need a new globe?

Cheers

Most likely the HID Globe, i had one go out the day i picked up my car, lol, just bought a new set to be safe

If your not sure just get in there and pull out the globe and check it, may be slightly blackened or the tiny wire will be broken inside,

Simple to replace, just unscrew the big black screw like thingy behind the headlight and pull out the globe which is attached via some sort of clip (easy to get out)

(just dont touch the globe itself (the new one), finger prints on the globe can cause it to heat up more and possibly cause it to blow)

Hope this helps

Thanx Steve. I'll go check that out now.

Check your fuse before you do anything else. Don't be like R34NRG who changed almost everything and found out in the end that it was his fuse giving him the shits.

IF it is the globe, it'll cost you a little. The OEM philips globe will cost about $200+ if i'm not wrong.

Thanks for the input guys

How do you check those big arse fuses that are used to run each side of your lights?

Or are they not the ones to be looking at??
