L322 3Lt TD6 2004 dip beam issue

Tim Gosling · Feb 2, 2022

Hello All,
New niggly problem... on acceleration or hard manoeuvring my right dip beam goes off: warning on the dash CHECK DIP BEAM. I then turn my head lights off and back on and everything working.
Not sure where the problem is. connector to the bulb is ok.

Has it got HID lights?

Or led efforts?

You can get them for ours Keith. I'm not tempted to be honest unless someone like osram or Philips does them.?

Yes you can, but the couple I have looked at are **** poor in terms of light output. If I wanted more light I'd go for a light bar.

Very true, I got some led h4 versions for my two spot lamps.... Utter shizzle other than the fact they were blue in colour.... I'm glad I tested them on the bench before disassembling the grill and so on...

Nothing I can say to help in that case, sorry.

Are the hid standard in l322?

Mine has a 2006 front end with HIDs, but that's how I bought it.

Looks like it

A height sensor is fitted in each corner of the vehicle to monitor the ride height of the vehicle. The sensors are mounted
on the front and rear subframes, with a mechanical link to the suspension lower arms. There are six different types of
sensor fitted to Range Rover:
l LH front height sensor – All vehicles
l RH front height sensor – Halogen headlamps fitted
l RH front height sensor – Xenon headlamps fitted
l LH rear height sensor – All vehicles.
l RH rear height sensor – Halogen headlamps fitted
l RH rear height sensor – Xenon headlamps fitted.
NOTE: RH front and RH rear height sensors fitted to vehicles with Xenon headlamps have a white stripe across the
back face of the sensor housing for identification.

Could be worth swapping the bulbs over and see if the fault moves.

It’s a Vogue so maybe high voltage lights are standard? Not sure. Each has a ballast unit to maintain the arc

Have you tried swapping them over?

Hi I replaced both high voltage lamps but no difference. thought it might have been vibration related as my ride height suspension still is inactive... long ongoing issue

Have you had it on diagnostics for fault codes? maybe LCM fault.

Hi no fault codes

Are the dip beams also HID's?

backinblack · Feb 4, 2022

According to Rave the dip is HID and main is halogen

The Bi-xenon headlamps use a complex surface reflector for the halogen fill in main beam only lighting unit, as used
on the halogen headlamp. This type of reflector is divided into separate parabolic segments, with each segment
having a different focal length.
The main beam bulbs are quartz halogen, with a rating of 55W. The bulbs are retained in the headlamp unit with
conventional wire retaining clips.
The bi-xenon headlamps operate as a dip beam and a main beam headlamp unit. The xenon lamp comprises a
projector lens with a solenoid controlled shutter to change the beam output from dip to main beam.
NOTE: Bi-xenon lamps do not operate when the main beam 'flash' function is operated.
The bi-xenon headlamp system is controlled by the LCM using a control module and igniter located on each headlamp
to operate the xenon bulb. The control modules and igniters provide the regulated power supply required to illuminate
the xenon bulbs through their start-up phases of operation.
