Is It the Ballast or the Globe?
Before replacing the ballast, swap the working globe from the opposite headlight into the non-working side.
If the light still fails with a known-good globe, the ballast is the fault.
If your dash shows a headlight warning message, this is typically a ballast communication error — a globe swap alone will not resolve it. The ballast must be replaced.

What globe type does the 5DV 008 290-00 use?
D2S and D2R HID xenon globes only — 85V, 35W. It is not compatible with D1S, D1R, D3S, or D4S globes. Always check the globe type stamped on your original ballast label before ordering.
How do I know if my ballast has failed?
One headlight flickering or not turning on, a headlight that cuts out after a few minutes, or a headlight warning message on the dash. Swap the globes side-to-side first — if the fault follows the globe, replace the globe. If it stays on the same side, the ballast is the fault.

This is an OEM-specification replacement — manufactured to match the original Hella 5DV 008 290-00 exactly in connector type, output voltage (85V), and wattage (35W). It is not a generic universal ballast. Plug-and-play installation with no modifications required.
