Repinning was just :

5wires = 6 pins

= pin 6 - negative
= Pin 5 = empty
= pin 4,3,2,1 = blinker, position, fog, revers.

Coding is just not to light up the error code for LED ... nothing more.

Everything is working , just COMING HOME AND LEAVING HOME is not ok. Ist not working like before.

Exclamation

stop tail light doesn't turn on when the daytime running lights are on and the switch is in the zero position. There was no such problem with the old tail lights. Can anyone fix this problem?

In Germany it is available at almost any dealer at the spare parts section. I placed the order normally and it came a week later.

Not in the US. It's not available anywhere else at the moment. Most of us Americans prefer not to purchase from international sellers because it ends up costing much more than the listed price after adding the customs charges, the exchange rate difference and of course the shipping.

It's interesting to see all of the posts about part availability. But, I have still not seen anyone respond to the posts about the error messages that appear after these parts are installed. Has anyone solved that? If so, can you post the solution?

Be wary of those who post that they have solved something w/o verification. I have seen this pattern before from some posters. These forums should be used to offer solutions not and not make blanket statements that 'I have solved it' without providing guidance to the rest of us. Reminds me of the Russian covid vaccine.

Hi have retrofited too, definetly need a new firmware, My car is 2017build and was 11-2019 firmware, but it didnt solved the retrofit, so I have updated to 11-2020, now its perfect, also added HELC and coded LIC_FEATURE_11 to enable, also I have checked LIC_FEATURE_3 allready enabled.

But at the moment bimmercode cannot read BDC_BODY2, because of the firmware its too new, but no problem I am using esysx, its still works

If you need to learn how to update firmware, first you need full version of psdzdata, and Esys 3.34 is Ok, also check google there is a guide for f10, its almost same with g30, only you need to check squence of ecu for prerequest. Definetly first update to BDC_GWS then SAS then FLM, .......USS, NBT, ATM, finally BDC_BODY. Note: NBT its take nearly a hour.
