It is called ALC_SG_VERBAUT - Adaptive Headlights (AHL) Control Unit Installed.
just tick nicht_aktiv.

You then should not see a AHL unit in ISTA. LM2 controls that after 03/2005.

I turned off ALC_SG_Verbaut. The 9CC6 error is not there. But I have 9CBC and 9CBF now.

Seems like you have not followed all the instructions properly. There is one cable from each side that need to be disconnected, or removed. Just unplug them at the LM. And unpin them, tape them up. There is one cable each, from both lights that need to be grounded. Please read through the above and do as it states, make sure you are unplugging and plugging in the correct cables.

The AHL Fault should not be there. As you should code it out.
