I am swapped the front clip on my E61 535xi (LCI) to E60 M5 fenders and bumper. Along with the body panels I swapped out the lights as well. However after everything was buttoned back up only the angel eye rings and parking lights turn on. On the iDrive system errors for both adaptive headlights show up.

The new headlights (from EBAY) did not have modules so I migrated the old modules to the new lights. Do I need to code these using NCS Expert?

I'm out of ideas on where to troubleshoot.

I would look at the errors given in INPA before anything.

I opened the headlamps and checked the HID bulb. To my surprise the bulbs were missing. I migrated the HID bulbs from my old headlights and the lights now work.

However the "Adaptive headlights" error messages remain. I tried to remove them using CARLY but they return immediately.


I suppose I have to code out my fog lights to get rid of the error messages ?

Generally excellent to know, much appreciated! Despite the fact that, it may be the case that I will attempt to graft into pins 48 and 49 by the CECM all things considered (since the wiring is as of now took care of into the lodge). The explanation I delayed is that there is constrained space for soldiering and war the contracting and I'm not a major devotee of conventional wire taps (for reasons portrayed here), however today I figured out how to locate the main spot in the nation that sells Posi-Tap and in spite of the fact that the standard is as yet a similar it appears to be a greatly improved other option. Comes enthusiastically suggested by some legitimate auto shops.
