We receive at the diagnostic

centers of the plants more and
more xenon control units and
xenon lamps which are o.k.
To avoid this high number of
problem parts with no
reproducible faults, we would ask
you to use the following
procedure for troubleshooting:

1 Perform diagnosis according to
instructions in WIS.

Model 202, 208, 210

AD82.10-P-1001AZ

If the fault cannot be

recognized or the faulty
component determined: ?
2 Interchange the xenon lamps
(right to left).

For the time being do not

replace system components.

If the fault of the xenon lamp

still exists: ?
3 Remove/install/replace xenon
lamp.

If the fault remains in the

headlamp the cause may be the
xenon control unit or a fault on
the vehicle side.

We are aware of the fact that

this procedure may possibly lead
to another stay in the workshop of
the vehicle in question.
However, we see no other
alternative if the redebiting of
warranty and goodwill costs is to
be avoided.
