Normal Bi-xenon to Adaptive Bi-xenon

Hello everyone!!!

i have the freelander 2 hse with normal bi-xenon.

I would like to replace them with adaptive bi-xenon original.

I make connections? changes to the adaptive functioning?

someone can help me with diagrams or sites where work has already been done? with pictures of the connector of one who has already adaptive headlights.


thanks Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Excuse my English

I don't think it would be a straight swap, you will have to have the cars ECU updated to tell it has them so the lights turn a little.

I have Adaptive Xenons, and yes the do turn, but i wouldn't go to the expense of swapping standard to adaptive one. Confused Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

thanks very much for response.

I ask a favor?

can do a picture of the attack of the lighthouse? so to compare if there is any extra wire. so we can understand if you have to do the electrical system or just a simple coding unit.

Mine look to have less green plugs, so i presume there must be another wiring harness or something

many many thanks NPINKS!!

the picture you see that you have many more wires.

then I should do the installation.

But I do not know where to find the wiring diagrams.

Online there is no land rover program not it?

You will need AFS ECU (which fits behind the glove box) and necessary wiring and also software update so that other ECUs (mainly Central Junction Box) can get it to work, not sure if its possible specially as the AFS circuit wires are missing. Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto

A FL2 with standard xenon has a auto levelling ECU fitted on the left side of the dash closer to A pillar(this is for UK models, on your car this should be right side A pillar). On a FL2 fitted with AFS this is replaced by the AFS ECU which handles both functions of levelling and adaptive lighting, so your car only has levelling module right now, so you need a AFS ECU.
Also note that standard xenon light units only have the levelling stepper motor in it. Headlight units with AFS has extra stepper motor which controls the lens. You will need new head light units and only those headlights have the extra pins in the socket for the extra wires that we can see in npinks picture which controls the AFS stepper motor. Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto

It seems to be a lot of work for very little benefit when you already have standard xenons

Maybe its because I haven't driven it down dark country lanes to really reap the benefits of them, but I really wouldn't pay £900 for these if i was ordering a new FL2. Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

I have to agree with npinks, I think its almost impossible because of the different wiring harness involved and also you will need to get the dealer to agree to update the software on the car. If you somehow do it and then have a problem elsewhere it will be very easy for the dealear to say its due to what you have done with AFS. Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto
