I got them from a friend that came from his e46 330i. Where can I get the cancel cables and will those cables fix the problem with the fog and the errors on idrive?

And i forgot to add that the only bulb that stays on is the right bulb....the drivers side is the one that flashes and turns off.

This usally happens with mine to. I just turn the fogs on and off like 5 times, then it works fine.
