A little information about the problem I’m having…
I have a pre-lci e92 with halogen angel eyes, so I wanted to upgrade the look so I bought a new 40w angel eye kit from HPB. Got the kit and install it no problem. Go to test them and now all of a sudden my DS xenon light is out and I have an adaptive headlight error coming up in the dashboard.
So initially I thought it was coding problem, I have a 2007 e92 (09/2006 build), which I heard are very sensitive to lighting modifications and throwing error codes. So I coded out all hot and cold bulb checks for the front turn signals, angel eyes, adaptive headlights, and I think the headlights themselves also.
I go to test it, no change. I’m going through the errors that I have on the dashboard and now I also have an error for a rear brake light bulb. I go to check it and sure enough its out now too. Very weird loll.. so I change that and that’s all good.
So after searching the forum I find out that condensation in the headlight creates all sorts of problems. I’ve been having some condensation buildup inside the DS headlight, the same light with the xenon out, for about a week now.
I’m trying to figure out what would most likely be the problem. BTW i did swap the stock H8 halogen bulb back into the DS headlight thats having the problem and no change. Is it possible that it just so happened that the xenon bulb is blown now at the same time and maybe opening the headlight cover caused it to go? Its just odd that everything was fine until i did the swap.. Will a blown xenon light cause an adaptive headlight error? Or is that an additional problem I will have to deal with?
Also as far as coding.. how to make the angel eyes not dim when the headlights are turned on? Also I’ve read that it’s possible to increase the voltage going to the angel eyes to make them even brighter, is that true? I would think that they could handle a constant 12volts instead of the 9.5volts I’ve read is what full brightness is stock…
If I do have to get new xenon bulbs should I go with OEM? Upgrade?
How do I go about removing the headlight and re-sealing? Is there a DIY for either?
