Parking Lamp Malfunction (On & Off Problem)

rg87 · 06-04-2015, 12:11 AM

Got the "Right parking lamp malfunction". The passenger side angel eye is out, but the xenon headlight works just fine. The lamp was out for maybe 3 weeks, then it suddenly started working again, so I figured the bulb might be loose.

Now the "right parking lamp malfunction" is back on and the angel eye is out again.

Do I....
1. Just go ahead and upgrade and change bulbs to LED (planning to do this anyway)
2. Have FRM module reset (thoughts on this?)....I've seen a previous post about this, is this related much to my problem???

I'm having the same problem. Did you ever figure it out?

If it's e92 that means the plastic material that wrap the copper wires are cracked. When you run over bumps the wires touch each other which cause a short circuit. Which will shut off the angel eyes causing daytime running light malfunction. If it short circuit long enough it will permanently shut down the light until you reset it through coding.
You need to inspect the wires, if you are craxked, fix it and see if it turns out. If it doesn't, I know someone thst can reset it for you remotely.
