Interesting stuff... So angels come on with high beams and indicators are always lit!

That is some muddle!

Looking forward to see the finished result

Only problem is i have no flash, so i'm going to connect high beam wire to 8 bi xenon

last update, connected high beam from old configuration to pin 8 and flash works.

just need to tide wires up and fit headlight & bumper back on.

All done

Well done!!

Thats impressive, so no coding, just rewiring?

Does the full beam act as a proper full beam with the shutter?

Right last thing to do is code car to remove bulb out warning light on dash due to angel eyes, via NCSexpert

these are the codes needed:

CC_STANDLICHT_RECHTS nicht_aktiv Check Control (CC) - parking lights - right
CC_STANDLICHT_LINKS nicht_aktiv Check Control (CC) - parking lights - left
WARMUEBERWACHUNG_SL_LI nicht_aktiv Hot monitoring - parking lights – left
WARMUEBERWACHUNG_SL_RE nicht_aktiv Hot monitoring - parking lights – right
KALTUEBERWACHUNG_SL_LI nicht_aktiv Cold monitoring - parking lights – left
KALTUEBERWACHUNG_SL_RE nicht_aktiv Cold monitoring - parking lights – right
KALTUEBERWACHUNG_FL nicht_aktiv Cold monitoring - high beams
WARMUEBERWACHUNG_FL nicht_aktiv Hot monitoring - high beams

Well done and an excellent write up

I take my hat off to you. That's impressive.

Spotted a small problem but know the fix. Flash to pass only works when lights are on, didn't check when lights are off.

I need to take bumper off and remove lights to connect existing high beam cable to low beam as well as it is already connected to bi xenon cable, this will give power to lights and open shutter.

before i start taking bumper & lights out the quick fix is to switch on daylight running lights thus lights on all the while and therefore flash to pass should work :wink:
