Hey guys,

I have a 335d M Sport Touring on a 61 plate. It’s just come up with an error where it states that the “sidelight/ daytime light is faulty on left hand side”. The angel eyes on the left hand side have stopped working, along with the side light. I though these were all LED so didn’t blow? Any ideas?

Thanks.

Easy enough to get to. Turn steering wheel full lock away from you to get more space and jack up the front of that side . 2 screws hold the access panel closed . Once that’s open you can see the module in front of you . Get a mini t20 driver that’s shaped like an Allan key as there is hardly any room . Module held in by 2x torx20.
Once the screws are out you have to wiggle the module out .need to be quite firm but it does come up . Installation is the reverse .2nd hand shouldn’t need programming in and 3rd party off eBay etc will say plug and play if that’s the case . Trying swapping the module from the working set of lights to confirm that is the fault
