Problem with lwr after lci headlights retrofit

Hello

First of all, my car is a 02/2007 e91 euro spec, and last year I already had swapped tailgate and tail lights for lci ones.
Already had a FRM2, maybe 3 years ago.

This weekend I finally swapped my pre-lci xenon with lci xenon headlights.
Changed production year, coded frm. Everything works fine except for headlight vertical aim control.
I got two errors:
9cb6 - lwr coil
9cb7 - lwr driver

When I turn on lights, there's no movement of lights anymore as use to have.
Both of headlights aren't working at this level (aim control)
I've search on the web and there's not much info about that.
Some guy claims that was frm that was the fault, read on other site that need to code frm (frm was coded for lci year model)
I've uploaded last frm coding prior to swap but problem persist.
Someone had any advice?
Thanka

For euro xenon LCI headlight retrofit on E90 there is some pin changes.

BMW made a nice little retrofit kit / cable. But there will be pinouts on ISTA if you just want to swap them.

Thanks

For aim control pin out is the same. I've done this retrofit for some times, it's not the first one. Pin out is diferent just for 3 orange led and angel eyes on frm.
Today I've swapped 2 frm's (one frm2 and one frm3). Flashed one with winkfp. Problem is there.
Check pins 8/9 and 10/11 on both headlights wiring and there is voltage there.
Maybe there is a problem with both headlights motors.
Murphy's law working well...

Change your production year back to the original value and default code FRM to see if that fixes it.

Done all that. All the same. Tryed many frm. 2007 date, 2009, 2011. All the same.
I'm wating for motors to come. One off the headlights had inside motor disconnected. Maybe there is any problem and previous owner disconnected both. Unfortunately I only check one. Not both.
Waiting for motors, once I want to change bulbs because left bulb seems that will die soon

Did you fix this error?
9cb7 - lwr driver
I have the same error and I don't know what to change.
The headlights don't work.
