Citan electric van headlight malfunction

I'm having a frustrating time with my 2023 Mercedes Citan electric van I've only done 23627 km and now I've got a headlight malfunction The error memory has stored a fault and a warning light is glaring at me from the speedometer The worst part is that the low beam is either pointing way too low or way too high I've checked the headlight switch and all the electrical connectors I can see but everything looks fine I suspect it might be a defective servomotor in the headlight itself Has anyone else experienced this beam adjustment issue I’m dreading the potential repair cost

That's good to know I'm not alone Did you manage to fix it yourself or did you end up taking it to a workshop And if you did take it in do you remember what the problem was exactly

I didn't dare try to fix it myself I took it straight to the workshop They told me the servomotor was faulty and needed replacing It sounds like you may have the same issue If you are unsure I would suggest you visit a workshop

Thanks so much for sharing your experience It's really helpful to know that it was likely the servomotor I took it to the workshop and you were right – that was exactly the problem The repair cost me 1040€ but at least it's fixed now Thanks again for your help
