Mercedes Sprinter Right Bi-Xenon Headlight Assembly – Hella | NCV3 | #9068202161 (2010–2018)
A cracked, moisture-damaged, or failed right bi-xenon headlight assembly on a NCV3 Sprinter leaves the right headlamp dark or compromised — reducing forward visibility at night, triggering headlight fault codes in the body control module, and creating a safety and inspection failure that requires the complete assembly to be replaced. This is the Hella right bi-xenon headlight assembly for NCV3 Sprinters equipped with the factory bi-xenon headlight option, a complete OEM-equivalent unit that restores full HID low beam and high beam function on the passenger side.
What This Part Does
The right bi-xenon headlight assembly is the complete passenger-side headlamp housing containing the bi-xenon projector module, HID xenon ballast, low beam and high beam optics, turn signal lamp, and daytime running light elements — all integrated into a single sealed unit. On a bi-xenon system, a single D-series xenon arc lamp serves both low beam and high beam functions through a solenoid-actuated shield inside the projector that moves to change the beam cutoff when high beam is selected. This allows the xenon lamp's full output to be used for both functions without the weight and cost of a separate high beam lamp. The ballast generates and regulates the high-voltage supply required to strike and sustain the xenon arc. When the headlight housing cracks, moisture enters and corrodes the reflector and projector surfaces, the ballast fails, or the projector mechanism sticks, the assembly must be replaced as a complete unit.
Common Symptoms of a Failing Bi-Xenon Headlight Assembly
- Right headlight that does not illuminate despite a confirmed good bulb and power supply — ballast failure
- Moisture or condensation inside the lens indicating a failed housing seal
- High beam that fails to activate on the right side — projector shield mechanism failure
- Headlight fault code stored in the body control module or instrument cluster warning
- Cracked, shattered, or physically damaged lens or housing from road debris or impact
- Degraded reflector visible inside the housing from moisture intrusion
When to Replace
Replace when the housing is cracked or moisture has compromised the reflector and projector, when the ballast has failed and cannot be sourced separately, or when physical damage makes the assembly non-functional. Always replace the D-series xenon bulb when installing a new headlight assembly. Replace headlights in pairs when both assemblies show similar age-related degradation for consistent light output and appearance.
NCV3 Specific — VIN Verification Required
This assembly is for NCV3 Sprinters equipped with the factory bi-xenon headlight option. It is not compatible with NCV3 Sprinters equipped with halogen headlights — the xenon and halogen assemblies use different housings and electrical connectors. Always verify your headlight type and VIN before ordering. Contact us and we'll confirm fitment before you buy.
