Replacing Headlight Bulb


injvstice

Recommended Posts

One of my headlights (01 lexus ls430) have started flickering and goes off after a few seconds. I am assuming that either the ballast or the bulb has gone bad. Earlier this week it was staying on dim and purple. Now it goes off completly. Are there any symptoms I should look for, to determine which one it is (bulb or ballast), to save some ordering headaches? And what is a reliable seller on the internet to order good quality bulbs/ballas at decent price?

And more important, are there any posted instruction on how to access the ballast and bulb, or can someone walk me through doing it? I understand it requires me taking out the whole assembly? I understand that the ballast is under the light assembly, but can someone help walk me through removing the assembly?

It would be greatly appreciated by me and especially by my wife, since it's her car. I just drive my little IS.
