Hey guys , Quick question..

I just changed a D2S bulb that went out and the activate headlight movement feature is not working , along with the flashing green led by the headlight knob..
From what I remember no other wires were unplugged..

I just replaced my d2s also. Un plugged both harnesses on each of the headlights then replaced the bulbs in my living room because it was too freakimg cold out. No warnings came up when i went to re install. The big harness is a bit tricky have to make sure is on real tight.Let us know how it turns out.

thanks for the response bud ~

I pretty much pulled the headlight out and places it on the core support , with the harness still plugged in. Being extremely gentle with it ...

The next day I turned the car on and it has been working properly ever since..

thanks!
