Hello guys, 2 weeks ago I have change my AC condenser and today I was to refill the system with freon. Everything was ok until I start the car an the Service lamp on my dashboard. I came back and I put the tester on and I revive an error from my dipped left light 💡 which said: error code - B1138 15

I have checked both lights and everything is working fine. I don’t know what to do. I was searching many hours on internet but I can’t find anything about this strange problem. I deleted the error but still come back. Anyone can help me please. Thank you 🙏

If you have directional lights check if they do their automatic setup when you start the vehicle with the light switch set on Auto and it’s a dark enough place for them to come on. Might be a broken wire in the headlamp itself.

Thanks for the answer but I don’t have directional light.
It’s unbelievable why I have this error when everything it’s working fine. I can delete the error but after I start the engine again shows up and the Service icon on dashboard

Hello again, I found the problem. I change the bulbs 💡 and everything it’s fine now. The old bulbs 💡 working fine but I have that error only on the left side. I switched them and it’s the same error on the right side. I just changed with new one and everything is fine now. Thanks
