Hi, we have a 2008 GTS (957) in which one of the dipped beam xenon headlights has failed. After changing the bulb (which worked for two days) I replaced it but it did not work. I then turned my attention to the electronic ballast unit bolted underneath the headlight. I swapped it with the one from the working side and this solved the problem. Issue is I am struggling to find a part which will definitely work (original part is Hella) and have seen a number of comments online suggesting to replace ballasts in pairs or saying aftermarket don't work. Also believe they need to be coded to the car as they not only drive the bulbs but control auto levelling and round the corner functionality but not sure if we have the latter. Anybody been through similar issues or can suggest a way forward? Many thanks.
