This part cross-references OE-style applications using part numbers 2189000002 and 2189009103 for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- One headlight not turning on after ballast failure
- Intermittent HID headlight operation
- Dim, flickering, or unstable HID output
- Headlamp warning messages related to the lighting control module
- Loss of proper HID power delivery at the headlamp
Installation Notes and Tips
Mounts in the headlamp assembly and uses a single female plug connection. Verify the original ballast part number, connector style, and headlamp configuration before installation. Because this module is located inside the lighting assembly, access typically requires removal of the headlamp or related trim components on the vehicle. No wiring harness or installation hardware is included.
Quality Assurance
