You did not have to remove the headlight to replace that module. Just jack car up remove tire and wheel well cover and you will have access.

[@KvH-ru1ol]

very tight space there, depending on the tools you have, you might be able to loosen the T20 from wheel well cover. my T20 doesn't fit :(

[@bitterNDsweet]

On some F-s you can do it from wheel arc and on some you cannot. Depends on the level of extras installed.

[@eliassandberg8690]

@@KvH-ru1ol No it dosent, took me legit 5 minutes jack the car up, off with the wheel, open the hatch, 2 t20 screws and boom tilt it and it goes out, in with the new one, back with the stuff and youre done

Agreed! I just did mine but I think it needs programming as I'm getting several more errors.

On my 535 I was getting errors. Condensation forming inside one headlight. . I noticed a small crack on the front of the lens. Just to experiment, I pulled the top headlight circle cover off, and also the back circle cover near the front of front tire in wheel well and put a hair dryer in those holes, moved it around a bit, let it run for a good long time. I then covered the crack with some clear tape. My warnings went away, I am seeing if it lasts or not. Some might try this before spending any money. Anyway, thank you for the very detailed video!

[@devynberry6992]

I took those two caps off and it dried out on its own within 10 minutes

easier to remove wheel. modules are right in front of wheel, easy access. a 40 min job Vs. 2hrs.

I had a problem with the headlights getting water in them early last winter a year ago. When I say water I mean about half a cup or more just in one headlight, but both were getting water in them. No way I could afford just one from BMW, much less two. It took about three days to dry them out after removal. I considered just replacing the lenses but instead went to the local auto parts store and bought a couple tubes of FLOWABLE WINDSHIELD SEALANT. The stuff almost flows like water into cracks and crevices. I carefully applied it all the way around the headlight lenses both and reinstalled them. It flowed well enough that it can't be seen. I also installed both new modules and new headlight bulbs because one burned out from being wet. Just a bit back I began getting the same messages about the adaptive headlight malfunction again. I also notice I am getting another message about the headlight vertical leveling being inoperative. As I recall, I only gave about $50 or so each for the modules so they could have been inferior parts. I am getting the messages more often now so I guess I will get more modules. Poor design from BMW.

2011 to 2013 you can use a Chinese TMS with same part number and can easily be fully coded to your headlight with everything working perfectly but anything later 2014 F10's and up and the ECU of the F10 will reject the any non-original TMS module and will NOT be able to code it and will ONLY accept original BMW OE TME control modules to be coded successfully!

@@mile4809 If your headlight is getting condensation than you must resealed with silicone or similar sealant the whole headlight where it seals completely to avoid future disaster! I used UltraClear roof sealant which is super clear, so flexible to apply with a small brush, drys clean and fast, can be applied on wet surfaces, it's very tuff and once it's dried it's very hard to notice it's there but does an amazing job in resealing headlights! a brand new BMW OE TMS control module from the dealer will cost an arm and a leg, $700 at FCPeuro, I got it for $200 on ebay original BMW TMS module new, i was fortunate to find it at the right time! So yeah you really want to avoid destroying the module first by resealing both of the headlights and save bigtime on money!

For anyone seeing this video in the future... My issue is drivers side halos are out. It suffered for awhile with the condensation issue. After troubleshooting with ISTA-D I found out about the module. The module controls the angel eyes and every other function (cornering lights, auto leveling, etc.) of the lights. My headlight works fine and its the only thing that does on that side. I brlieve BMW made it that way so the msin light would always work regardless of the module. I bought the module (dont remember the part no. Part no. will be different depending on the light package you have installed (bi xenon S524A or LED S552A)). My connector inside my headlight was so corroded that the module difnt work. Even after coding. So i have to buy a new headlight. I will report back here after its replaced to let you guys know if it worked. Sorry so long. 2014 535D.

[@ThicGarage]

Thanks for sharing your experience. Did you try spraying and let soak the connector with a chlorinated electronic cleanser?

[@trammell.bonner]

@@ThicGarage I didnt. While i had the headlight out on the bench, i shined my flashlight down in there and the connector was badly damaged. The condensation caused some arcing and burned the angel eye pins on the connector and module. Gotta get replaced now.

@@trammell.bonner I had the same issue with my f10 with condensation. It seems to be a common problem, especially on the driver side. I ordered the module on Ebay for about $80 and replaced it by going thru the tire well. Took maybe 30 minutes. I use silica packs to keep out the moisture as my hack.

[@trammell.bonner]

@@jddavisnyc I've heard the problem could be the seals on the csps and/or a drain vent that could be clogged. Some ppl have done what you said and used silica packs and some have went so far as to buy an extra top cap and drill a couple of holes to let these vapors escape. There is also a kit available to replace all of the cap seals

BMW S are the worst car you can buy .They ride nice and good performance .But they break down like no other and why anybody in the world would own is beyond me.

Evans C300, haven’t done many videos on it because he plans on upgrading to a C63 AMG
