Light module 2, the module that control our lighting system. Pre-lci have the LM1, LM2 is an updated version, which control the welcome lights, DRL etc... I am still learning. But google it along with E60, you will find more info.

How do you achieve the Ricky brake effect only with coding ?
i wonder if the rods are connected to rear fog lights only and if so then the following should work right?
RL_BL_2_BREMSL_FKT inactive
RL_BL_BREMSL_FKT inactive
NSL_BREMSL_FKT active

I don't think you can achieve the Ricky Brake by just coding, you has to be physically move the wires around. Unless you know something internally that I don't know of. The fog and the rods are independently connected. You have to take at the diagram that I have posted in the previous post.

well what's feeding the rods then ? Cuz the rods aren't connected to brake lights . It's not lci car so obviously rods don't have separate wire coming from lm2 to them so it has to be connected to something

There are only 6 wires in the connector from the car . Ground , inner bulb , outer bulb, reverse, fog and the led blinkers . So rods arent connected to reverse light, blinkers or any of the brake lights so that leaves only fogs .
Once I get home from work I'll try to code that only fogs light up when intake and we'll see if it's going to work. My bet is that it will
