BMW X5 Lighting Issue: No Power to R/H Low Beam and L/H Angel Eyes

Hello everyone, I'm experiencing a lighting issue with my 2008 BMW X5. The right-hand low beam and left-hand angel eyes are not working at all, even after replacing the bulbs. Upon checking the wiring, I found that there is no power reaching them. I'm wondering if there is a count switch that needs to be reset due to a short circuit? I'm quite confused about this situation. Additionally, the fault codes I'm getting are 009CBB and 00E598. Any insights or suggestions on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Check the fuses related to the lighting system first, as a blown fuse could cause the power issue. If the fuses are intact, inspect the light control module (LCM) for any faults, as it might need resetting or replacement. Let me know how it goes or if you have further questions!

Hi checked all fuses but still comes up with short circuit fault codes 009CBB 00E598 How do I reset the light control module? Isn’t that the frm

Yes, the Footwell Module (FRM) controls the lighting system in your BMW. To reset it, you typically need a diagnostic tool like BMW's ISTA or a similar OBD-II scanner that supports BMW-specific functions. If you're not comfortable doing this, I recommend having a professional mechanic handle it, as incorrect handling can lead to further issues. Let me know if you need more guidance or if you have any other questions!
