2007 S60R headlight problems

Post by arose21 »

So I've got a really weird problem with one of my headlights. When I flip the switch to turn the headlights on, they both act normally for about 5 seconds. Then the left one (when looking at the car from the front) points down, and I get a message in the car saying that there is a headlight failure. The headlights work fine when have have them on the automatic setting and the headlights are able to go into high beams. But I cannot put them on the permanent high beams because when I flip the switch to the headlight on setting, the left one fails.

I scanned it with ViDA and it gave me CEM-8F15. This headlight was replaced, so I'm not sure if it has something to do with that.
