My Ride: 2003 E60 525i se
Default Angel eyes exploding!!

Hi guys new to this.

I have a black bmw e60 525i manual 2003. The car is awesome I love it but I have a problem.

I brought replacement canbus bulbs for the Angel eyes and they all worked. Then a short while later the two outer ones stop.

I replaced them and they went again. So I left them for a little while. But today when I went to replace them again they had exploded and only left the small part that sits in the cup.

now today with 4 new ones only one works....... thats driver side inner.

I get the error messages but I'm unsure if it's the bulbs themselves or something more sinister. So tomorrow I'll use the working one in all of them and get back to this thread but has anyone had a similar problem or experience?

please share what you know. Thanks from a noob!.

Hi,
You might want to pull the upgrade bulbs out to test to see if they are illuminating. The upgrades "exploding" may have melted or done some damage to the inner plastic tubing.If you have any questions about lighting give us a call at Umnitza.
