Help with Xenon angel Eyes

Vehicle info: 2006 BMW e90 330i

Build Date: 10/05

Some background information I got this car as a hand me down and was in the process of fixing it. Got rid of a dent, changed the bumpers, tinted the windows, and the last thing was changing the lights.

The car came with the BMW OEM xenon lights with the angel eyes but only one side worked and both were extremely faded so I made the decision to change both lights while changing the bumper everything lined up and all connections was re-connected.

However, now neither of the angel eyes worked, but only the angel eyes every other light works (high beams, low beams, fog, DRLs, side markers, etc.) I thought it was a setting on bimmercode I needed to activate so i bought the app and an adapter but absolutely no setting mentioning angel eyes was on bimmercode.

I found numerous threads about resetting the FRM short circuit so I bought a cable and followed a guide to use Tool32 to be able to reset it. I reset it and still nothing Tool32 said the job went through but still the only lights not working. I have not tried to "add" coding lines since I couldn't find an updated guide and did not want to ruin my car more.

That is where I am at so if anyone has any idea I would appreciate it. Also, the control menu on the iDrive says "Right/left parking lamp malfunction" if that helps.
