Technical Information

Compatibility
Fits Citroën C8 and Peugeot 807 models (common production years 2002–2014). Always compare the part numbers above with your original part to ensure correct fitment.
Installation Procedure
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting work to avoid electrical damage and airbag/vehicle electronics faults.
- Open the bonnet and, if necessary, remove the bumper or trim pieces to access the headlamp mounting points (depending on vehicle variant).
- Unscrew the headlamp retaining bolts and carefully pull the assembly forward to access electrical connectors.
- Disconnect the main wiring harness, the xenon ballast connector and any headlight leveling or washer connections.
- If transferring auxiliary parts (leveling motors, washers, or brackets), remove them from the original unit and install on the replacement unit.
- Fit the replacement unit, reconnect all connectors, and secure all fasteners to the manufacturer’s torque where specified.
- Reconnect the battery, verify operation (ignition, headlight self-checks) and adjust headlight aim according to local regulations.
Installation Recommendation
- Wear gloves and avoid touching the xenon bulb glass surface. Finger oils shorten bulb life and can cause failure.
- Handle the ballast/control unit and its connectors with care; moisture and impact damage are common failure causes.
- After fitment, check for dashboard warning lights and clear any stored errors with diagnostic equipment if present. Proper aiming and leveling is essential for road safety and legal compliance.
- If the vehicle is equipped with adaptive lighting or automatic leveling, confirm correct operation after replacement.
Why This Part Fails Most Often
- Ballast/Control Unit Failure: The most frequent cause of xenon lighting problems—symptoms include flickering, failure to ignite, or intermittent operation.
- Bulb End-Of-Life: Xenon bulbs degrade and will eventually fail to light or produce reduced output.
- Moisture Ingress And Condensation: Leaks or cracked seals allow water into the housing, causing corrosion of connectors and electronics.
- Mechanical Damage To Mounts: Broken brackets or impact damage misalign the unit or prevent secure mounting (note: this unit is missing the lower bracket at the control unit).
- Electrical Connector Corrosion Or Wiring Damage: Poor contacts can produce intermittent faults or complete loss of function.
Notes For Professionals And DIYers
This is a used, fully functional complete Xenon headlamp assembly. The lower bracket near the control unit is missing and may require repair or bracket transfer during installation. Verify mounting points and connectors visually before installation. If you are uncertain about handling high-voltage Xenon systems or headlight leveling/adaptive functions, consult a professional technician.
