can I change just One LED Headlight if the other still works?

[photophil33]

I have a 2021 F3 Limited that I had LED headlights put in in February 2021. I usually run them on bright & the right one quit working. The regular or dim still work. Can I just replace the right, should I replace the set, or is there a way to fix the right one? Just hate taking all of that apart again.

They can be changed individually. Just make sure it is the same mfg'er or the lumens/color most likely will be different... Unless you have the ability to source/solder LED chips, no way of fixing it, just replace it. FWIW, I have a set of LM units in my 2015 that have worked for the last 7 years! ;-) Maybe get a refund on BOTH of yours and go with Lamont's stuff?

LEDs

... My Tip: Replace them both at the same time. Why, because the brightness will not be the same from the old to the new LED. Usually, they seem to fail within 2 or 3 months after replacing the first one. Been there and done that, so NOW I Know.

I always tell people to bite the Bullet and save the headache for something else.
Stay Healthy. ....:thumbup:

Lamont has a video on what panels must come off. Here is another video that I found particularly helpful. Having recently done both of mine, believe me there is no shortcut. Watch the videos and take the panels off in the order described. It's not as bad as it sound/looks as most of the panels snap off.

:agree: .... and I have never seen LED's sold singly ..... plus un-less the one that's out, somehow was caused by damage the other one is likely to fail in the not to distant future ...... Mike :thumbup:
