I have a 04 545i and have Orion v4's installed. I also had it hardwire so it's my day running lights. I had them for about half a year now and never had issues with them until today. After locking my car today I noticed the Angel Eyes didn't turn off. So I waited...and waited and they still didn't turn off like they usually would. So I turned the light knob from automatic to off but this still didn't do the trick.

When I usually lock my car, the angel eyes would dim and fade away all in less than a second or so. I notice when I lock my car now, this still happens, but instead of turning off, they just stay dim.

They have been on for over 3 hours now and still won't turn off

Check to see if any of your interior lights are turned on.

LKwok

did that and that wasn't it

as a last resort pull the headlight fuse or the fuse for whatever line you hardwired into!

maybe after a year n half the insulation of the wires came off somewhere and is now contacting something else?

LKwok

darn i'm not sure, but the cigarette lighter is also on when I turn my car off which before was not possible.

sounds like you might have a big issue!

Have you had any rain recently, by any chance? It's a long shot, but you could have water at the very base of your trunk which messes with a few electrical modules...

I actually have had rain, but not sure how it would get into the trunk. One thing I did notice was water getting into my headlight assembly before this happened...I wonder if this had to do with anything.

sanjsanj

do you have a sunroof? they are prone to letting water in, because the drains get blocked... check your spare wheel well asap!

How did water get in to headlight assembly?
