Hi all, I am getting the error on dash saying indicator fault (although still currently working), and dipped beam fault, light does not work, have checked the bulb and this is ok.
I have read about the headlight ballast control unit, could this be the issue?

Thanks

Are there any fuses or relays that control the lights?

Generally it’s SAM units that control everything in modern Mercedes

If I had a diagnostic done, would that show what error code is the causing the light issue?

Depends a bit on the system used, need an MB specific

I’d check the battery then inside the SAM for water damage first as both. “Free”
