Ckeck if it is correct power and Voltage. May be the BMW computer is checking the load current and found out of range due to diferente rating.

Unfortunately newer cars monitor every voltage change to tell you that a bulb is out. The led light you bought draws so much less power than the oem bulb, your car computer thinks it's out. Newer led bulbs have a resistor that tell the computer the bulb is not out. Unfortunately your particular bulb does not have that resistor. Find a more up to date version maybe with another manufacturer.

I just replaced one of my existing fog lights. The lights should fit where the louver vents without a problem. The switch for the fog lights are tied into the headlight switch from the factory.Not sure how you would switch them.

You should not need anthing. I just replaced the bulb as normal on my fog lights, no problems. They are a high amp draw, so do not tap anything else onto the circuit you put them on. I had a small pair of day time running lights tapped into my fog light ccircuit and it worked fine until I went to the LED bulbs. The combination of the DRL and the fog LED was to much for the ccircuit and kept popping fuses. As soon as I moved the DRL's they problem went away. Haven't popped a single fuse since. No flickering, no issues at all. I really like these bulbs.

the fog lights that I bought fit but I didn't have the control switch in the blinker arm on the steering wheel...The dealer wanted $400 to install it...So they look good but they don't function...

No it is definitely an installer error: I've had 2 of these on 2 different cars and have never had this issue.

Check your connections again. It may be an issue with your car or a bad ballast from the factory.

I had the same concern and had my Infiniti dealer program it and it worked just fine. I asked the infiinti Service Rep look at it before programming for some assurance that it would work - he flt it would but there was no gaurantee. The dealer made it clear they would charge me for programming whether it worked or not. I have a 2010 G37 XS.

The kit includes a new turn signal / headlight switch (stalk) which has the fog light switch on it. You just take the old one off and replace it so the result looks the same as if it came with fogs from the factory.

No, the flash patterns are too fast and the load current too high. Look for an alternating flasher pot much like a single flasher on your turn signals. Or you could also replace your fog light bulbs with led versions and this flasher would work.

Hello, I am looking at mine right now and there is a label for BMW, however I can't scroll to it as this unit only worked one time.

Try and get high wattage bulb. JDMASTAR bulbs I bought read no error. (2004 g35x sedan awd) or buy a programmer that can clear error codes ;)

As far as your fog lamp is HB4/9006 it will work fine. At the end of te day it is up to you whether use it as fog light or primary lowbeam

They should be standard fog lights. You will have to go to the dealer to have them turned on.

send it back and get a new 1I did not experience any red lights on mines only blue or green and that means its working properly

It's a cheap led bulb, it won't last. Mines overheated and the board separated from the led lens. Not sure if it will fit you BMW.

verify obd2 transmitter pins setup. compare them to peake pdf manual setup. my 328i 2007 was incompatible. peake is in th R&D; process with the 2007 + new OBD2 .
