E90 headlights

Wife's LCI E90. When turning the headlight switch all the way clockwise, only the angel eyes light up. But when selecting automatic, everything is on like usual.

Simple as replacing the switch following youtube vids?

Replying to this old post.
Did you end up replacing or fixing the head light switch? Mine just started doing the same. Doesn't really bother me since it can be switched it to the left into adaptive mode.

Is this a switch problem or an issue with the foot well module?

I have an extra circuit board for the headlight switch if either of you are interested. It's really easy to swap out. I bought a spare used switch because my knob kept getting pushed in easily (wouldn't lock in the normal extended position). The only reason I transferred the knob over to my existing switch assembly instead of just using the replacement is because I already had modified it to enable the rear fog light button.
