Every time i start the car i get the error come up saying Headlamp Malfunction service required. The right lamp constantly keeps moving about up and down like its trying to find the right position. On a diagnostic machine 2 errors came up which was B14DA Right headlamp Light distribution actuator and B1D65 Right headlamp swiveling motor circuit. Has anyone had these faults and how did you fix it? Cheers

Sure I have seen this before. Something to do with the wiring connection

I’ve just checked the wiring and found a wire that had come out. It’s a different one to the link you posted tho. Is there one for this or can this be fixed easily?

1. I have the same warning light but my light doesn’t seem to be searching, still to take them out to investigate. Was it easy to take the light apart?

Only 2 bolts to take it out then pull the connector out and the light will come out easy. Then just rubber bits behind the light that pull off to see behind the bulb

As well as the obvious concerning these replacements lights , as anyone put them on their car & had any issues with the local constabulary, has any one been stopped because they say there illegal, I don’t wanna drive around with the original ones in the boot and have to swap them over if I get stopped, let me know people many thanks 🙏🏻 👍👍👍

Quick update people anyone had a run in over these from the local rozzers , I’m biased but I think they generate enough light ,
