What does this fault code mean?
Although the fault code concerns the adjustment of the right headlamp, it relates to the cornering lamp, which lights up tight bends at low speed. The fault is stored when the supply wire to the lamp is shorted to earth or has a break. The lamp then does not work.
Possible causes
- Short circuit to earth in the supply wire to the cornering lamp
- Break in the supply wire between the cornering lamp and the right main headlamp control unit (RHCU)
What you can do
- 1Check that the fuses for the headlamps are intact
- 2Check that the cornering lamp in the right lamp housing, towards the front of the grille, is secure and not broken
- 3With the ignition off, check the wire to the lamp for chafing, pinching and loose connections
- 4With the ignition off, use a multimeter to check whether the supply wire is broken or has contact with earth (the body)
- 5Remedy the fault, switch the ignition off and on again to see whether the lamp works. If the fault remains, have a workshop check the control unit
