Hi everybody. i have a issue with My model3 2019. My left headlight died and i order a new one and change it my self. The new light will not come one even after reinstalling software. After investigation i realize that the new light is a projecter head light and the order one is the regular. TWO QUESTIONS about this.
1. Does the new projecter light compatible with my mode3 2019.
2.Do i need a pair of same headlight for the car communicated with both
3.could I make the procedure wrong.
Thanks for your answers

You probably need to install a pair that's the same, and reinstall the software via the Service menu.

It's also possible someone sold you a bad headlight, or if the procedure for install involved moving the ballast from the old headlight to the new one, it could have been a bad ballast all along. You could get around that by doing the opposite of what it says, and moving the replacement ballast to the old headlight.
