Headlight flicker (1 Viewer)

My headlights are intermittently flickering. Bulb going bad? What else might cause this?

I have the same issue on my 2014 LC. The battery was going bad, so I thought that was the cause. Replaced the battery and it is still flickering.

I have it on my 2013. I’m assuming crapped out bulb. Need to sort it out.

Both sides or only one?

It can be the ballast or the bulb. If its only one side, swap the bulb with the other side and check, and if the same bulb is flickering its the bulb that needs changing and if its the same side, youll have to change the ballast too.
I had this before, had to change one ballast and one bulb and now all is well.

I think it’s just the driver side but I need to verify that.

I have a 2013. It was the bulb going bad.

It's the bulb. I have to do mine as well, getting very annoying.

This is a good thread:

2013-2015 headlamp replacement - HID low beam

Anyone have any experience with replacing the HID low beam headlamps on a 2013-2015 200LC? Replace bulb? Replace bulb and ballast? Go ahead and do both sides at same time (sounds pricey)? The driver's side went out on mine last night. It has flickered occasionally for the last 10k miles.
