E90 angel eye intermittently working

luan330i · 03-16-2013, 11:05 PM

Hi everyone.

I got a 2006 e90 330i. On Friday in the dash came up a warning light and the iDrive shows me my front left angel eye doesn't work. I had this same problem around 3 month ago when I first got this car. But it works fine after few days and now I got this same problem again. So what should I check with? Do you think it is the bulb's problem? Or somewhere else's problem?

Thank you much!

Bulb is easy to check so start there. Low batteries can also cause bulb errors.

When the error is on does your angel eye work?

No when the error shows on the left one really stopped working. But it happened 3 month ago and after few days it just works again till this Friday...

35 watt H8 bulb and is a PITA for guys like me with hands that are large. Get your wife/ gf to help replace the bulb...

Replace the bulb will fix the problem. My car has the same problem before.
