Adaptive Headlight Issue, No Error!

GunMetalGrey74 · 10-10-2017, 02:01 PM

Hey guys, I have an 08 328 sedan with the adaptive xenon package, and I have confirmed this by looking at the low beam and seeing "BMW Dynamic". I do not have any headlight turning with the wheel. I have owned vehicles before that it works on, and I can confirm it doesn't work on this car.

There are no error codes in the car at all, and I have never had any codes for anything.

When I start the car the headlights sweep up and down before leveling out, but that is the only movement I get.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!

The headlight switch has to be on Auto (far left position) for the headlights to turn with the wheel.

If that's not the problem then I'm sorry but I can't be of any help

Have you scanned for any codes that may be present but didn't throw any dashboard lights?

Make sure your switch is positioned all the way to the left.

Switch is positioned to the left and the light on the switch is not flashing.
