Question Replacing LS 430 2001 Headlight

Hi,

I don't know much about cars and I need help!
The left (passenger side) headlight seems to be out/turns on and off every so often. I looked up several links where I could buy the replacement HID headlight, but I'm not exactly too sure which one since the prices I've seen range from about $15 - $80.

Here are some of the links:

I'm not even sure if it is the headlight, fog light, low beam/high beam??

Please help :')

Welcome Tang! The search function can be your best friend. There is a thread that has collected all the most popular topics on problems with the LS.
Within that list is a How To on replacing the bulb. I attached the link to that thread here;

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...placement.html

The DRL and the high beam are the same bulb, which is a standard Halogen bulb.I believe the number is 9005. The fog lamp is separate from the headlight housing. The Xenon lamp is the more expensive one. That's your normal lowbeam headlamp.

If none of them are lighting, I would suggest looking at the connector from the harness to the lamp assembly. There also is a relay for the left headlamp, which I believe is located under the fuse block in the engine compartment. Not sure of the location.

Let us know what you find!

Cheers!
