The light module controls and monitors the vehicle lights. Information is received and sent via the data bus K-CAN SYSTEM.
Emergency operation properties of the light module: The light module is supplied with terminal 30 twice.
If a terminal 30 fails, the following are activated:
* Front lighting: low beam and parking light (each on one side).
* Rear lighting: On one side, the outer sidelights/brake lights are activated. On the other side, the inner taillights are activated. The vehicle thus still has lights on both sides. Confusion with a one-track vehicle (motorcycle) is excluded.
* Brake light: One side of the brake lights is activated with normal power (ECE coding). This leads to "one-track" braking, as if for example one brake light had failed.
In the case of a failure of the processor, emergency operating mode is activated. Emergency operating mode involves hardware that is completely independent of the light module. Emergency operation properties with failure of the processor:
* Vehicle lighting: At terminal 15 On, the following are switched on: Front low beam and outer rear sidelight/ brake lights left and right. The outer sidelights / brake lights left and right are not, as would be normal, dimmed to 10% of their brightness, but operated with full power. This ensures the function of the vehicle lighting irrespective of the position of the light switch.
* Brake light: With terminal 15 On, the left and right brake lights are switched on when the brake-light switch is operated (via a hard-wired, direct line from the brake-light switch to the lamp drivers).
Function defects with failure of the processor:
* No turn indicators and hazard warning lights, no high beam, no headlight flasher, no fog lights, no rear fog light, no third brake light
* No communication across the K-CAN SYSTEM.
* No communication with the trailer module
Can a bad light control module cause the inner blinker closet to my grill on my 05 745li not to work? I switch bulbs and clean socket and still doesn't work[emoji34]
ok so if only my brake lights are staying on its a good chance it aint the lcm?im talkn to a tech on just anwser who says mite be dsc controller because my dsc lights are on, in idrive says dsc is not working,i took it to dealer they diagnosed it as dsc controller im sent that in to module masters they said nothing is wrong with it,now im takin it back monday to see why lights are stuck on,and i dont have a warranty ugh
i got problems wyth my lights as well but they stay on all the time need to disconect the batery every time, when i start the car and the swich is set on 0 the the xenon lights go on and cant turn them off plz help
I have a particular problem when I switch on just the Parking Lights, they come on with the Angel Eyes as is should be, But then I switch on the Headlights the AEs stay on But the Parking/Running Lights go off. The Parking/Turn Signal bulb socket only has two wires, I guess the facelift kind, Is This Normal or is the LCM supposed to turn off the Parking Lights? If I had all three wires would they work right, do I have the wrong LCM or is it Faulty, And could it need reprogramming or the other R Word....Replacing ? I guess I'll need to have a look at it to make sure it's the original one first, Do They pull you over for not having Parking Lights, Is there a rule that states that you Must Have Properly Functioning Parking Lights while driving at night Or are They mainly concerned with the use of Turn Signals ? Thank You if you can Help to shed a little light (Amber Light That Is) on this problem
