Porsche says I need a new Headlight Control Unit:  955-631-193-01.  Around USD$170 for one, online.  Much more expensive from Porsche.

 

Question:

1. Is there right or left one?

2. Is it simply install and headlights works properly or is there programming, ie. Is PIWIS needed?

 

Thanks for your help.

Thanks Loren... good to know that there is just one part number for both sides... means I can swap them for testing...  currently passenger side low beam not working.  Drivers side is good.  I am afraid though if I swap the headlight control unit that some wiring fault on the left side may fry the good unit out.

 

Not to rush you, but do you know the answer to the second question regarding PIWIS and the headlight control unit?  I am on the west coast too and fortunately its a quiet evening for me... thank you.
