Litronic Low Beam Problem Solved

Last week, my right low beam headlight went out. I checked the fuse and it was OK. After researching the boards, it appeared the problem could be a faulty Litronic ignition module or faulty control module. The price for each of these two modules was well over $600. I called one of the local dealers, explained the problem, and was told the H7 bulb probably needed to be replaced, but I should bring the car in so they could check it out. However, a Litronic low beam is not an H7 bulb, so it seemed to me all the dealer wanted was for me to make an expensive service visit. Instead, I checked on ebay and found a used Litronic ignition module, control module and bulb. I won the auction for $99 and received the package yesterday. When I got home, I removed the headlight, disconnected the plug and the 3 screws that hold the ignition module, swapped out the ignition modules, reinstalled the headlight and - IT WORKED. A little research and DIY can save a lot of $.
