Light system error and warning light in the 2017 Opel Karl petrol engine: experiences and solutions at 55767 km

Hey guys, I have a problem with my 2017 Opel Karl petrol car and need your advice. I've recently started getting the error in the light system and I also have a warning light in the speedometer. I had a similar problem with a defective glow agent once, and my garage really didn't do a great job of fixing it back then. The car now has 55767 km on the clock, maybe some of you have had similar problems with similar mileage and can report on your experiences with the repair? Thanks in advance!

A similar issue with a defective glow agent was previously poorly addressed by a garage. A suggested solution, based on a similar experience with an Opel Corsa, involves replacing the headlight control unit, which resolved the issue without further failures.

Hi mate, The same thing happened to me with my 2014 Opel Corsa diesel. I also had a problem with the light system and a warning light on my speedometer, quite annoying. I had a headlight control unit replacement done at the time. It wasn't a huge drama, but it was serious because I couldn't drive safely at night. I had to go to the garage and have it done. It was just an isolated incident and I haven't had any more failures since. Hope that helps you. Good luck with it!

Hey, thanks for the info! It's really annoying when you have a dark stretch of road ahead of you and then the lights go crazy. Do you happen to remember how much it cost back then? And have you had any other problems with your Corsa since then? Thanks in advance!

Hey, sure, no problem! So all the fun with the headlight control unit cost me €630.0 at the time. Not exactly a bargain, but everything has been running smoothly ever since. The problem with the defective glow agent has also been history since the workshop visit. The Corsa hasn't let me down since then. Hope that helps you!

Hey, thanks for the info! Oh man, 630€ is a lot for a headlight replacement, but if there's no more trouble since then, then it's a reassuring feeling. Have a good trip with your Corsa and hopefully my Karl will stay trouble-free for longer. Thanks again for the tip and stay safe on the road!
