Lighting problems after car wash on BMW 5

Hello everyone, I own a BMW 5, model year 2010, with a diesel engine and 230,000 km mileage. After a car wash, I noticed problems with the lighting: The turn signals are not working on both the right and left sides, and the headlight leveling and parking lights are no longer functioning. Has anyone had similar experiences or any tips on how I can fix this problem? Thank you very much in advance!

Check the fuses related to the lighting system first, as water from the car wash might have caused a short circuit. If the fuses are fine, inspect the wiring and connectors for any signs of water intrusion or corrosion. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!
