I was referring to drawing too much current via the Light Module. The guys who designed the Lights module aren't expecting the output to driving three bulbs connected in parallel, instead all its designed to do is run one footwell light. Now I know that BMW overspecify everything so you may be OK but I just thought i'd warn people before people start connecting all sorts of other head and tail lights to this.
even with regular AE's it will b fine, which of course i tested

I have the umnitza harness to v3's. It looks good , the problem is I get the check bulb left and right. I purchased the diode from the shack, I put one on the white wire and the other on the brown wire, I did the same for the other angle eye. Still a malfunction light! God what did I do wrong , maybe is there a special way to install diodes? I really hacked my wires . I was wondering I'd the relay is doing it or do I need a diode in the footwell light?any help would be helpfull. 2007 530i!when I'm done with the car I'll post up pictures with my wheels and kit!
