F30 Depo Angel Eyes turn off when I turn on low beams.

I have a seriously frustrating issue with my newly installed Depo headlights. As per the title, the angel eyes turn off when I switch to low beam.

They replaced the LCI Halogens which have LED DRLs. Those too turned off the DRLs when switched to low beam.

I've ordered a Vgate OBD2 adapter so hopefully there are some coding options that can rectify this.

However in the mean time, surely there is someone here who has encountered this problem and may have found a way to keep DRLs turned on with low beams?

Did you manage to get your Depo's working?

Hi Simmo, just wondering if you managed to get the DRL's to stay on with low beam? Noticed you're in Scotland so wondered if you took it to a specialist to rewire?

That means it's not the lights, it's the car. Download the trial version of Bimmercode, running in demo mode you can see the coding options available. Mine says the default angel eyes brightness with the low beams on is at 12%, which can be increased.
