Rx 330/2005
The typical issue I have is moisture in the headlight and HID stopped working. My is HID and AFS (dealer price is 2K !!)
Question: can I use HID only headlight assembly to replace current with AFS (of course I would change both sides). Would this create any problems? Same connectors? What about AFS indicator on dashboard?
I intend to change bulb only and see if this works, but if not, I may need to do more to fix this.
Many thanks for any ideas!

 

Was the HID bulbs not working or both HID and AFS?

If AFS is working, I would just replace the bulbs and seal the headlights...here's the DIY link

Didn't think of this one .... many thanks! I think AFS works as there is no indication on dashboard. Also bought bulbs from eBay ($20, Chinese stuff but I hope it works ). This is my first choice approach ..., but if unsucesfull can I change the whole headlight assembly just with HIDs? Dealer does not want to provide straight answer, so I find this a bit suspicious.

 

most likely the AFS works fine...you might need to replce the bulb (not sure about the ballast)....

good luck and keep us posted

 

You were right, AFS works ... good news. Just waiting for the bulb to arrive and will try if works. I hope ballast is OK too as I removed moisture some time ago (hair blower - works great) and since there is no moisture, my hopes up. Will keep you posted - thanks a lot for help!
