remote key and headlights question
i a new e92 owner and loving every single day. I cant figure out what Im doing to cause my headlights to not turn on when I open the door with my remote key. I played with the auto headlight functions, and somehow the headlights turn on when I open the door with the remote. Now its back to not turning on. Does anybody know what is going on? Thanks!

Dude, totally ran into the same thing when I was installing some mods on my car. Long/short, the car was stuck in the garage for 2 weeks due to the terrible snow storms we had so couldn't drive it, couldn't get a full charge on the batt, did a lot of starting, running for a couple min and then shutdown. It was just the battery getting low, and the car is "smart" enough to conserve energy for starting. Once I got a full charge on the batt the AEs come on everytime. If the switch is in the right position (auto or on) then maybe have the battery checked - usually places like Discount Auto parts will check your batt for free. Hope this helps.

i got the "smart," adaptive battery explanation from SA. after resting, it needs to get used to working again. when the battery light comes on, it's like it's 3:30pm on Tuesday after a long MLK weekend where you also took a personal day on Friday. the car is angry over being made to work, but it'll adjust, and its spirit will again be broken in time.
