Default Main Head lamp not coming on
My 2012 LR2 main headlight not coming on. Switched the 15 A fuse on the passenger side but still not working. Any suggestions are appreciated

Are they adaptive HIDs? If so there is a ballast on the underside of the entire light assembly. I have a 2008 with HIDs but I don't know what 2012 came with?

Thanks for responding. No they are not HIDs.

Try a search over at freel2.com, a UK site. The Freelander 2 is the European version of the LR2 with more engine options.

Yes, I switched out the lamps on both sides first.

It's either relay R127 inside a module in the main junction box, or the control on the steering stalk.
