Yeah, I noticed that. Strange that Left is getting error and Right is not. I will try to change these values in an hour.

have to set to nicht_aktiv.

In general, you can say that all values with KALTUEBERWACHUNG or WARMUEBERWACHUNG have to set to nicht_aktiv.
Ok, So I changed these values but with no success. Same error on rear left blinker.

What is the error message?
The taillights are new?
And how old is the software of your car?
Maybe you can try to VO code with "HELC"?

If your inner blinkers don't work after coding, you need to upgrade the I-step of your REM.

Done it a few times now.

After updating, just add HELC in HO-WORT and CODE the REM ECU.

Coding with "HELC" helped. I needed to code REM and FEM-BODY ECUs.
Thanks, my retro-fit is done!

hi just a quick question i only have these issues when i tried fdl some values are different than mine

REM_01 > LceOutputChannels 3061 > SL_2_L_CCM = Fxx_ccm_sl_2_l (f20 or f30_ccm)
REM_01 > LceOutputChannels 3061 > SL_2_R_CCM = Fxx_ccm_sl_2_r (f20 or f30_ccm)

REM_01 > LceLampMapping2 3063 > MAPPING_UNIVERSAL_8_OUTPUT = bfd_l (output channel only)
REM_01 > LceLampMapping2 3063 > MAPPING_UNIVERSAL_9_OUTPUT = bfd_r (output channel only)

REM_01 > LceOutputChannels 3061 > BFD_L_CCM = ccm_blinker_l (ccm_bfd_l is my only option)
REM_01 > LceOutputChannels 3061 > BFD_R_CCM = ccm_blinker_r (ccm_bfd_r is my only option)

the one in parenthesis is the only option that i have)

I think you have to update your REM or maybe only update the CAFD for the REM.

Update of the CAFD is very easy.
Only mark the REM in E-Sys and then "detect caf for swe" on the right side.
Then choose a newer one CAFD with the highest numbers.
Then you can try again to find these values.

Wanted to confirm whether or not error messages would come up on a 2014 F30? I don't mind the flickering on start up but I've seen comments that mention no error codes but I've also seen those that do mention errors. Can someone confirm?
Thanks

While taillights will be functional, you will have rapid blinkers and bulb check warnings until coding is applied.

Can the coding be done using a coder like protool?

No idea on other harnesses. Might be best to ask in a different thread.

[IMG]https://c1.staticflickr.com/1/637/21...4ff9848b_b.jpg[/IMG]

The release of the 2016 LCI (Life Cycle Impulse) introduced some minor improvements to the vehicle. On the exterior side, most noticeably with the taillights. This DIY will give a quick overview for those to update their lighting to update the rear of their 2012 3-Series (and 2015 M3) Sedan to appear like the 2016 models.

An LCI Upgrade from EAS consists of Inner/Outer taillamps, trunk lamps (4 total) and Plug and Play (PnP) harnesses.



"History"

EAS has been performing R&D on taillight retrofits for a number of years, leading back to the E46 M3 models. We were at the forefront of the E92 taillight swap back in early 2010, with open Q&A sessions to fully explain the steps and show a bit behind the scenes on R&D:

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=372215

Let's begin:
Question! So everything is installed on the F30 and is coded & everything is working flawlessly with no issues. Only thing is that when the lights turn on at night, I get radio static. But when the lights are off , the radio works fine. Any reason why this is?

Thanks!
