DIY: How to replace Lexus IS250 Burned out ballast

[equationoracle]

how do you know it is the ballast versus a faulty light?

This video will cut your work down to about 5 minutes. You can remove the ballast & socket without removing the lense. /watch?v=3txVEXAiHjk

Bullshit,il do this before I pay someone $250

If you can afford a relatively new Lexus then you should be able to afford to pay somebody do that for you.

@MacSaab93 I rather pay 150 bucks to fix this myself then 2000 which the dealer is charging. I rather spend my 1850 I saved on booze and hookers....

Where did you purchase the ballast ? I'm looking for one of my Lexus as well as I think its the same problem

[sa92ad]

Lexus ES 350 2007, How to repleace the bulb (D4S)???

[rumz82]

Hi, great video! Just wondering, would I be right thnking that this would also be the procedure for a Lexus IS220d (2006)?

Thanks in advance.

@rumz82 Yes, the only difference is that your engine is smaller, but the headlights are the same.

Bro, THANK YOU, GRACIAS....does a working ballast have a HUMMING NOISE when the light is on while the engine is turned off??? I replaced my xenon bulb twice, checked the relays, fuses and still NO Xenon LIGHT.....on my IS250 RIGHT SIDE headlamp.

[Advancedlites]

@DXTBOW Yes the ballast does have a humming noise while operating. If there is a flicker of light (for a second) when you first turn on the headlight, than the bulb is bad, but if there is no flicker, or any light than it is the ballast. Sometimes it can be a short in the wires. Wiggle the wire on the bottom of the headlight, and if still no light comes in, than it is surely your ballast is bad.
