Thank god it worked!!! I kept on hitting roadblocks and boom someone figured out exactly how to code for a US G30 bc I too didn’t have all of the LIC coding as previous mentioned but luckily my 2018 G30 had the diodes and wiring so all I did was buy a Euro switch and coded with BimmerCode and wha-la we’ve got rear fogs!! Many thanks to all of the pioneers helping everyone else out with coding their cars with ease, I salute you! |

I honestly just stuck a plastic trim puller between the top of the switch and bottom of the top part of the dash and pulled it straight out. Unplugged the old switch, plugged in the new one, and popped the new one in. Takes about 5 minutes.

Question, is the coding with Bimmercode in simple mode?

Also I thought all the coding in this thread was with esys, I'll have to look back a bit closer for the Bimmercode instructions.

My tracking says "Item sent abroad" on 10/25 from Latvia with an airplane icon next to it. I would have to assume it is in the states by now, but no updates to this entry.

Plugged in my switch I got from Europe and this worked without an programming so far. Pictures are no where near how bright this is in person.
Now to get the other one working with it!

He has both wires in pin location 1 inner. Needs to be coded still. This is how it works when coded for Euro tails but not coded for the switch. My car is going in for an oil change today. The same shop that installed my tails is going to check if I have the fog wire. Fingers crossed. I ordered the switch from Latvia and who knows when it will arrive. If I do have the wires, I will pop it in and have Vic code it. If I don't, I will have a switch for sale that is for a G30 without front fogs (M550) and without night vision. It's not worth running two new wires from the BDC, but you never know, the shop today might give me a reasonable quote. The irony here is, I know how to do ALL this stuff myself, but it is easier and more time efficient to have my shop do it. They charged me only $300 to install the tails and run new 5th wires from the BDC.

Yep, what Joe said. I just have to get it coded now. I was going to get it coded last night but my kiddo is sick, so that took the front seat. I might try my hand at Bimmercode depending on Vic's schedule

My lucky day. I've got the rear fog wires! All six pins full. Pin 1 is the fogs. Black yellow, Black white.
