Xenon Bulb or Harness Malfunction?


Recommended Posts

I just picked up an 02 X50 996 turbo. For some reason, NONE of the lights on the driver side front work. I don't think it's the bulbs, since all are out. Is there a common known fix for this? Harness issue maybe? I read something about regulator, too. How do you check for this?

Radio doesn't work, either. Related problem maybe?

Thanks!

US or RoW car?

I would pull the headlight out (instructions in your owners manual) and have a look at the connector(s) that stay in the car. See if it is pushed out of it's holding brace or if one or more wire is loose in the connector.

For the radio strart with the fuse.

Unfortunately, no owner's manual (there's every other manual in the car, but no owner's manual :( ). Any manuals online?

There is a MY03 Owners Manual here. It should be very close.

AWESOME! Renntech is quickly becoming a favorite site of mine. I was complaining to a fellow 911t owner about the lack of online support as compared to some other cars I've owned. Then, I found this site :)

What does "MY03" stand for? Sorry, just starting out my 911t ownership...

I pulled out the light, connectors look fine. Put it back in, and all the lights now work. THANK YOU LOREN! I would never have been able to figure any of this out without your help, or the link to the manual. I'm loving the car... next step, Upsolute chip.
