Hay I have installed some EE front drl headlights replacing halogen headlights but only randomly it seems they will flicker once every now and again,
I have coded -

FRA_V_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG nicht_aktiv
FRA_V_L_WARMUEBERWACHUNG nicht_aktiv
FRA_V_L_IS_LED aktiv
FRA_V_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG nicht_aktiv
FRA_V_R_WARMUEBERWACHUNG nicht_aktiv
FRA_V_R_IS_LED aktiv

my thoughts are did I need to code -
FRA_V_L_IS_LED aktiv
FRA_V_R_IS_LED aktiv
could this be causing the problem?

or I have not coded any or the rear checks as the rear are total standard or do I need to code out all rear checks as-well?

Any help with this would be massively appreciated.
THANKS

The original codings for the LED-Headlights are 118 lines.
That's why i recommend to VO code this retrofit.
Then all important codings will be changed automatically.
The equipment code for LCI Headlight AHL is K552.
The equipment code for LCI Headlight non AHL is K5A2.
But if you want i also can write the complete coding lines in here.

Is this the same for the eagle eye led halogen replacements that they advertise as plug and play, it's only the inner projector that's led drl and the outer projector is still the halogen h7 for high and low beam, Thanks for your help.

[atzebmw]

I'm sorry, but i don't know the specifications or differences for this replacements.
I only have a program which shows me many codings for many equipment codes.

[jakk]

thx do you know if there is any particular coding that related to just led for the front lights all bulbs except h7's

[atzebmw]

I'm not sure if i understand what you mean.
But when you retrofit the LED Headlights there are no more H7 because it's all LED.
Which LED Headlights did you retrofit, the adaptive LED Headlights or the normal LED Headlights?

[jakk]

its the same as these

[atzebmw]

Oooh, they are not original.
So it's more complicated.
But if i see right the LEDs are only for daytime running light.
And the High Beam and Low Beam lights are normal Halogen.
Is it right?
And flickering at your Headlights does only the LED daytime running lights?

[jakk]

yes that right, thx

[atzebmw]

Ah OK.
Then i would try these codings for the daytime running lights:

FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_L_CCM = off [Default]
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_L_IS_LED = aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_L_UE_SPG_SCHUTZ = nicht_aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_L_WARMUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_R_CCM = off [Default]
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_R_IS_LED = aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_R_UE_SPG_SCHUTZ = nicht_aktiv
FEM_01 > LceLciOutputChannels 3061 > TFL_R_WARMUEBERWACHUNG = nicht_aktiv

and this

FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_L_OUTPUT = off
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_L_PWM_LEVEL_1 = 11.5V [Default]
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_R_OUTPUT = off
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_R_PWM_LEVEL_1 = 11.5V [Default]

I don't know if your Esys has english descriptions or like mine in german.
Maybe you will not find the word "TAGFAHRL".

[atzebmw]

And the codings from the beginning of this threat

FRA_V_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG nicht_aktiv
and so on

i would better set to default because this is for the turn signal lights.

[jakk]

thanks I sometimes get this error (Headlight Vertical Aim Control failure) but only ever if I try to repeatedly try and alter the headlight height up and down inside the car could this be part of the flicker problem do you think ?

[atzebmw]

No, i don't think that this problem has a connection with the flickering.
The flickering comes from the test current which the car is sending regularly to the lamps.
So the car is testing if the lamps are ok ot not.

[jakk]

i was wondering if before the halogens could have been adaptive headlights? and now this feature is not supported by these lights causig an issue ?
il try the coding tomorrow thx

[atzebmw]

I just found these codings

FEM_01 > LceConfiguration 3064 > LWR_ABST_POS = wert_01 [Default]
FEM_01 > LceConfiguration 3064 > LWR_ENABLE = nicht_aktiv
FEM_01 > LceConfiguration 3064 > LWR_FAILSAFE_POS = wert_01 [Default]

They seam to be for the Headlight Vertical Aim Control.
In german Leuchtweitenregulierung = LWR.
You can test it, but watch the changes, because it's possible that the Headlight Vertical Aim Control doesn't work anymore and your headlights dazzle.

[jakk]

thanks i will try and let you know

[jakk]

Another thought halogen dont have day time running lights so how do these work? Should I enable day time running lights or do these just piggy back off of somthing else, Thanks for all your help so far

[jakk]

Thanks I did this and I think its fixed il be able to check when it goes dark,
but I was not sure what the below do?
TFL_L_UE_SPG_SCHUTZ
TFL_L_CCM
I did not code these as I was unsure what they do can you explain please.
thanks

[atzebmw]

TFL_L_UE_SPG_SCHUTZ

is for (in german) Überspannungsschutz für das Tagfahrlicht TFL.
In english Overvoltage protection for daytime running light.

TFL_L_CCM
This _CCM i saw at many coding values, but never understood what it means.
I think it's ok when you didn't code this values.
Only if the flickering is still there you can try these.

[jakk]

do you think I should still code this,
TFL_L_UE_SPG_SCHUTZ

thanks

[atzebmw]

thanks

In my opinion it is a little bit dangerous to deactivate a overvoltage protection.
Otherwise this coding value can be found in the values for Original LED Headlight retrofitting.
But i would better not code this value.
So it should stay on active.
If the flickering is still there then you can try to code this value.

[jakk]

I think my last question lol,
could you translate / explain what these do -
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_L_OUTPUT = off
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_L_PWM_LEVEL_1 = 11.5V [Default]
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_R_OUTPUT = off
FEM_01 > LceLampMapping1 3062 > MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_V_R_PWM_LEVEL_1 = 11.5V [Default]

its interesting to know what Im changing thanks
