Had the same issue with my wife's F30.. both housings and ground wires inside the connectors were burned (charred) beyond recognition... bought brand new housings and connectors from ECS and replaced them, I also swapped the Halogens bulbs with LEDs to see if that helps minimize the amount of current flowing thru the ground wire thus preventing another meltdown.

Blows my mind that this is not a recall, this is a serious fire hazard. Oh well.. guess BMW just waits until somebody dies or gets seriously hurt before they do anything about it.
