Upgrading from Pre LCI rear brake lights to LED lights - E93

Yesterday I had one of my most satisfying mod on my car .

I upgraded to the LED brake lights for my E93.


After I installed the LED brake lights. There was flickering and my signal lights were moving very fast and there was a light error code. As i was not able to take these lights with weird action. I removed it.

So I read about it online why it was like that. It was written you need to change the footwell module. The module cost abt 500 plus and it do not have stock . So I just try my luck asking RBB if he has changed to LED lights . He said no and we discussed this issue I were having . He mentioned he did the coding for some of the guys and it's was alright after that.

That prompted me to try as I had the LED lights but not installed. I made an appt with RBB. I installed the led lights , met RBB in Sin Ming area as he was kind enough to meet me at my WS.

RBB explained in details what he will be doing step by step so I got the assurance that he knew what he was really doing. He checked my car system first . Followed with a back up of my pre codes which I really appreciate it as in case anything thing screw up . At least to reboot the system in my car , I would know my previous setting.

So he coded my car , wa la !! The LEDs works perfectly !! And with no more error codes. The led lights are beautiful . Since RBB was there, I got him to code my recirculation Aircon button. So now no more requirement to press the button when I start my car. As I am really lazy :).

Wanted to code my welcome lights to gradually light up so my lights can be beautiful when I pressed the unlock button. but I think my "smart top" device disallow it from happening , thus not able to do it.

After all coding . He erased all my errors on the cars which really has a lot ! And finally did a final check and all are well. No more errors . He also took a snap shot of my errors and will email me so I can keep track of it.

He took the pain to open my bonnet and checked my engine and explained what he has modified on the engine like the modifying thermostat so the engine will run slightly cooler. This will be my next mod :)

I wanna thank RBB for his help . Else I will still be figuring why the LEDs not working !!

Thumbs up for RBB . Thanks bro ..

How about the change to hot climate ? Ok also ?
 
Re: Upgrading from Pre LCI rear brake lights to LED lights - E93

After changing the climate to hot .

Now my aircon is cooler.

I am surprised that the climate setting is not under Asia .

Very cool ... Good to know it worked !

Your ride has the hot climate option based on the VIN - but not activated. Might as well code that in and use it.

Hmm... my Aircon is perpetually hot!




* Seems like now instead of the phrase "time to Mod..." it has become "time to Code...!!!"

Just curious if it makes a difference between different region code for air con. I thought the climate control will moderate the temperature?
