Adaptive Xenon D3 conversion
I've just fitted Xenon headlights on my Discovery 3 basic 7.
They work great, Dipped & Main beam. I even sussed (with help of forum member Admirable) how to get the Cornering Lights working!
My question is... is it possible to get the Adaptive Headlights working (where the headlight beam follow the direction of the Steering).
Would it just be a case of fitting an Adaptive Control Module?
Has anyone done this?EGR pipes blocked & refitted.
Butterfly valve removed.
Dash clock.
3 flash indicators.
Xenons with Cornering lights.
De-tangoed with Side marker lights.
Tinted windows.
'See me home' lights front & rear.
Cruise & Audio controls fitted.
Remote start FBH.
New belts & Oil pump upgrade.
Full length roof bars.

Firstly, I was confused with Adaptive Headlights & Cornering lights.
Adaptive headlights are where the beams of the headlights follow the direction of the steering.
Cornering lights are situated in the Side light part of the headlight. It should be a Halogen H8 bulb.
Cornering lights only work with the ignition is on (or engine running) Headlights on (dipped beam, not tried main beam) & when when either side Indicator is turned on. (I did hear that they won't work when '3 flash indicators' are enabled. (I had them enabled, but disabled them, then re-enabled them). The Cornering lights only work briefly when you press the Indicator stalk /switch.
How to get Cornering lights working.
Firstly the Xenon headlights have to have the Cornering Lights fitted in them. (I believe you can modify & fit Cornering Lights if not present).
Look where the Side /parking light bulb is. There should also be a Halogen H8 bulb in that same part of the Headlight.
The next thing you need is a Red wore (positive +12v power supply) at terminal 4 on the plug at the back of the Headlight multiplug. (again it is possible to retro-fit one).
If you have all the above requirements, you'll now need to teach the car by using an IID BT tool.
Set the following item in the CCF file options:
Adaptive - disabled
Xenon - enabled
Cornering lights 1 - enabled
Cornering lights 2 - enabled
And that should be it!
Now with the ignition On, switch your Headlights on to dipped beam then select either right or left indicators. The appropriate Cornering light will light up whilst the indicator is Flashing.
If there's anything that you're not sure about, feel free to get in touch. I'll try & add some pics.
