Hoping someone can help me with trying to get my Driver side Angel Eye back to working. From everything i can read the FRM has probably stopped allowing it to work due to the counter being 50, I do have LED bulbs in and they have been working fine for the last year then it started getting dim then stopped working. Thought maybe bulb so i replaced and no fix


So i do have Bimmer tools app and it does have a FRM reset and cleared the codes which nothing has changed. where im geting stuck is on INPA and Tool32. I can get connected and pull up the FRM_70 but i cannot find anything in tool32 about the counter or for the reset, every post ive found all show the same thing but for whatever reason mine does not show what everyone says to look for
IE-
"Connect cable to your car, launch Toolset32 and load FRM70.prg (for FRM2).
- In the window called Select job: FRM_70, select the job status_lampen_kurzschluss_counter. In the list Results select job_status and the lamp output which is shut off due to short circuit protection.
- Send the job to the car using the F5 key. You should get an answer in the Results window and the COUNTER value should be > 0. If COUNTER is = 0 then you didn't select the right lamp output. Try finding the one(s) which have COUNTER > 0. You will look at this value later to see if the short circuit reset-job actually worked.
- Now, switch job to steuern_reset_kurzschlussabschaltung. Notice that this job requires one (1) argument: lamp_nr. Lamp_nr is a number 0-255. Enter the lamp_nr to clear in the Arguments list and select job_status under Results.
- Send the job using F5. Make sure you get an answer OKAY in the Results window."


the stuff in bold does not show up in my FRM_70 on tool32. Not 100% what i may be doing wrong as ive followed all instructions i can find to the T. Also i notice after using tool32 i cannot get back into INPA unless i pretty much reboot my computer or re install the ST212 file from the bimmergeeks standard tools download. Im by no means good with this software but ive used it a few times and havent had issues, this is my first time using tool32 though

please complete your car profile, model, built year, 335d is not enough. E90, E91, E92, E93 ?

Does anything show up in your tool32? also you can't run inpa and tool32 at the same time. You must close out of one.

You should be running tool32 as administrator. You should not need to reinstall to get stuff to work. INPA/Tool32 and all are very simple programs in terms of that.


It would help to give details what cable you are using and what windows version, etc.

The car should be an E90.

Yes it does give me quite a few options in FRm_70 just nothing about a counter/reset . every post i can find with pics or direct info say those things should be there. Yes i know you cant run them at same time i close each program before opening the other

windows 10, was installed as windows 7 like directions said, always open as administrator
not sure what exact cable i have but its USB not bluetooth. same cable i used for coding

My car is a 2011, 335D are all E90 as they were only made from 2009-2011

I see what's going. If u install led your Lights will work like normal but if u don't code them to the FRM correctly they will die quicker because frm constantly sends a voltage pulse to check for errors and if u don't deactivate that your bulbs will begin to dim due to the little chip in led Loosing life. It's better to get it coded and your set. If u want help with coding and your in LA let me know.
