BMW x4 Fog Lights

ElleRoE · 02-12-2015, 10:19 PM

Has anyone had trouble with fog lights? One (right or left at any given time) will go off. Took into dealership but of course it didn't go out at that time. So they said no problem... But I ave seen this happen several in valet, or reflection in other cars.

You might be talking about when you turn and the fog lights come on the side which you are turning to then once you turn the steering wheel straight the light goes off.

Wow people....

Remember the Buicks 15 years ago... They had these features:

When you have your headlights set in AUTO and it is at night time with the headlights ON:
The left side fog light will lit up if:
- you are turning your steering wheel to the left
OR
- you are turning on the left turn signal

Same scenario for the right side fog light, if:
- you are turning your steering wheel to the right
OR
- you are signaling a right turn

If you reversing, both fog lights will be on....

You are welcome and Happy Valentines and Presidents' Day weekend!

I never seen this behavior on my fogs. I have the full LED lighting package on my X4. The fogs do turn on and off depending on direction I am turning though, but not randomly turning on and off. I hoope you figure it out.

Chillax Bruh! That's the Cornering Light Function on the Fogs (that work with the adaptives) Speaking of which, do they really illuminate the corners well?

No. It was a shortage ... They were going on and off with wheels straight. Problem solved after I recorded it and showed shop.

Glad to hear you have it resolved...

... but your original message wasn't exactly clear...

There is no way anyone here could have help you with that little information...
