Hello Everyone!

I am the owner of BMW 430i Xdrive 2017 F36 LCI from USA and recently I bought VLAND lamps to replace with my original ones, due to missing rear fog lights(I am living in EU). As per my knowledge, VLAND lamps have fog lights implemented.

I have some issue with coding the new lamps, as I have done all necessary steps to activate rear fog light button and coding for the lights, but looks like no reaction for activated lights(on dashboard everything working).

Code implemented as below :

ECU Module Option Default New Value
FEM_BODY 3060 NSL_Verbaut nicht_verbaut Verbaut
REM 3063 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_L_output off nsl_l
REM 3063 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_R_output off nsl_r

nsl_l - 0x1C
nsl_r - 0x1D

Before, my original lights were coded for trunk blinkers, but it was still not proper lighting for EU. Previous lamps didn't have original rear fog lights so maybe there is necessary to do some wiring for the fog lights.
Actually, I've already browsed the forum, but I only found solutions with coding the external turn signals and internal blinkers(As I had with previous lamps) as fog lights. Coding external and internal blinkers is not proper solution for EU.

Did anybody met such problem and have any idea how to solve that issue?
Thanks for your advice and have a nice day.

US cars have the rear fogs. In order to use them you need to remove a tang on the light switch to allow the rear fog switch (it's below the regular fog switch) to operate, then you code the rear fogs to active.

Looks like in my original lights, anyhow it was not working.
Regarding light switch, it's done since long time ago. As I said, there is fully functional switch for the rear fog lights and also it's already coded.
