2007 BMW 335i e90 FRM Module Problems

I am working with a 2007 BMW 335i e90 and I am assuming it is an earlier build because it has the FRM module, as opposed to the newer ones. The Fog lights have been replaced and I am running into the same problems many others have in the past. The bulb error is constantly coming up, and the FOG lights will turn off. I was hoping someone could help me out with the following:

1. how can I code out these FOG Light error codes in the FRM Module, when I searched for the specific codes from the spreadsheet, not all of them were there.

2. How can I code my Day Time Running Light and have just my Angle eyes on?

3. How can I code the welcome lights? (such as FOG Lights and license plate light come on with car is unlocked)

4. Why are numerous of the codes from the spreadsheet not found on the FRM module when i searched for them?

****I have attached the FRM File, please let me know if someone can help fix it to get all these issues resolved. I appreciate all your help ****

Its because you dont have the options availible because you do not have the FRM2. Sorry man. As for errors, turn off warm and cold checks along with error messages off for fog lights

LOL hey rich hows it going the VMWare file you sent me is working perfectly :P

Can you edit that file for me to code off all the warm/cold check properly? I tried, but I got kind of confused because I went through the spreadsheet and some of the codes were not in the FRM file, and some were already set to nicht-aktiv...?

Also can you edit the fog light error off as well for me please

You can buy used FRM2 and replace it, then you will have all future available for cars after 03.2007 like Welcome Lights, AE as DRL etc....

Why? Because I used the public official files that temporarily replaced yours before packaging the vm and helping a member out? Or did you just assume I broke my promise and made your sacred private files public?

Sorry if this started a fight lol, but all the information is public and Rich is an amazing guy to help others out without asking for something in return.

So the only way to get any of these DRL, welcome light features I need to upgrade the FRM Module, theres no other way? How much do they usually go for used?

Good to hear about the VM! I took of your sidemarker parking lights and the fog errors. For DRL angel eyes, you need to move your light switch to the parking light mode. Overwrite the man file with attatched and then do the sgetfswpsw then change job to sg_codieren and then execute!

You can have DRL with FRM1 but no with AE.

Used costs about $130-$150.

Hey Rich is it possible to code the FRM Module to also have the foglights and angel eyes on at the same time while having the car set to parking lights?

What I did was enable the fog lights to ALWAYS be on no matter what. Ignition on leads to the fogs being on. This way I can leave it set to automatic but have the fog lights come on instead of having the high beams when the fog button is pushed

I had the same issue, I had to get a decent HID/Ballast (canbus) unit AND solder a 10,000uF capacitor in-line. No more error, and no more lights shutting off.

Using nettodata, you can tinker around with the voltage to to have this set up correctly to not shut off or flicker.
