Headlight issue

Suffering from a bit of an issue with my headlights and no idea what the problem/solution is, hoping someone can help?

I added the US style running lights using Carly so that the orange lights on the front are illuminated at all times on my car. However recently one of them seems to have gone out - but it does still work when I indicate or turn hazards one, so the bulb is fine.

I’ve tried undoing it via Carly, resetting it to factory and disconnecting the battery for a few minutes in the hope that might reset it. Even if I can switch them off, the passenger side outer light remains illuminated?

Some images below of how they look when I have lights off and when lights are on, appears one of my angel eyes is out too but assume this is a bulb issue. If anyone knows the bulb I need that would be helpful.

Had the same problem, outside bulb was out. You can get part number from the usual sources. Easiest one to reach.
 
The indicator does that “to let you know” you’ve got a bulb failure. So assuming that it’s the angel eye you were taking about on the other side.

Kind of strange that it’s not on the same light. Have you checked your rear bulbs too? That might be the cause of the indicator playing up. Logic to me, says your N/S front and back should be linked. And your O/S front and back should be linked.

So in my opinion youve got a rear bulb failure plus the angel eye. Can’t help with angel eye bulb tho.

So first port of call, is to double check all lights including fogs and reverse.
 
Thanks both for your help - that actually makes sense now I think about it, been scratching my brains and getting concerned that Carly had permanently altered something!

Will get the bulbs all checked out and report back.
