Anyone have a simple way to test the LED units before installation? Just to verify all the ballasts and led units are working?

Does anyone know if the T6 Caravelle with halogen lights still has a DLR module ballast or is it only fitted with LED lights?

Hello mate, Yes I followed the bumper removal guide () Swapped the DLR ballast from headlight unit (There are two, one is for headlight and the other is DLR) with the Drivers side DLR ballast to confirm bad passenger side DLR ballast first. This was the part I needed to replace the faulty...

The ballasts are attached to each headlight unit (hence bumper has to come off to remove headlight unit and access to DLR ballast).

My van isn't thaaat heavy :p

H4 and H7 headlamp bulbs are fed directly from the BCM. Ballast is a reference to a "power supply module" on a High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lights, aka Xenon lights.

Wow @mrharrod . Thank you so much for your prompt, informative replies to an old post. Very much appreciated by an old member! Andy

Emergency ballast release, we’ve all been there. I imagine the bird recovered altitude pretty quickly.

I still had to put ballast resistors in as well to stop random errors on the combi meter

Anyone have a suggestion of where to source the correct screw to secure in the ballasts before I wind in some dreadfully wrong self tapper?

Ballast at the back then? :)

Might just have to do that :thumbsup: another job added to the list!

Have a read of some of these threads. You may need ballast resistors. https://www.t6forum.com/search/1389976/?q=ballast&o=relevance

Messes with mine too. If you're that bothered you can fit some sort of ballast resistor to fool the HU into thinking speakers are connected instead of an amp.

I did mate just to hide the ballasts and make sure all the wiring was neat. Removing the bumper is so easy.

So your not using the 6.1 ballasts ect your using t6 ones

...ago I carried a mere 70kg above the rear axle and the ride was massively improved. Without spending any money, I wondered if carrying 35kg ballast on each side of the rear axle was a good idea. The U-shaped bed has a compartment in the right place where I could hide / secure the load. I’ve...

It could be the common fault of the DRL connector burnt out. Caravelle has H7 units and the bulb holder was upgraded following many failures. Easy way to identify is check if there are wires attached to the bulb holder. The original does not and picks up the feed from the headlight housing...

Possibly the Ballast for the headlight is starting to show signs of failing or a loose earth connection either in the plug or iirc under the scuttle panel

I have one of these. great trailer. Had a tonne scoop of ballast and gravel on numerous occasion. Got greedy boards also. Good size easy to manhandle and where I live they are small enough not to require a pass for the local tip. Can’t tow it in with van though lol
