Adaptive headlight oddity

samneedssleep · 10-05-2022, 12:07 AM

Recently I’ve had issues with the adaptive headlights on my 07 e92, it appears that they “think” that the steering wheel is constantly turned to the right, they are always pointing right and at low speed the halogen turning bulb comes on, when I turn the wheel left to full lock it recognizes that it is turning left, and will point straight when making a gradual left turn, I’ve tried to reset the steering wheel adaptions (full left lock, then full right lock, then back to center on startup) I have no warning lights or hidden codes (regarding this anyway

). To be quite honest I’m not even sure where to start on this one, any help is appreciated

I think for something like this you need INPA. Somewhere in menus you can test adaptive headlights.
