Hi
This car came to me wit not working reversing lights.
The car had a short circuit on the system, that was resolved, but still no reversing lights.
So, what happened was, that the ignition was cycled more that 50 times with the short circuit present, so the FRM module (the module that controls all the lights in the car), disabled the circuit, in order to prevent any further damage.
Theoretically that means the module needs replacing, although using BMW tools, we can reset the short circuit count, enabling the module to turn on the circuit again.
That is what I am going to show you in this video.
In order to perform this, you need BMW tools installed, including Toolset32.
Hope you enjoy the video.
Any questions put them below.
Like always, thank you for watching!
Wonderful step-by-step how-to video! I was able to clear my E90 FRM_87 parking light counter successfully by following this. Thank you for posting it!

OMG you help me finally after 4 years my reverse light works :D

Hvala vam puno na ovakav dobar i detaljno opisan video..meni je pomoglo , imao sam problem sa zadnjim rückwertz svetlom , kupio kabel i pratio sta radite..i problem sam resio..THX
To je sjajno!
Hvala vam što ste gledali i komentarisali!
Absolutely awesome video! Precisely explained and showed every single thing that is needed to reset the short circuit succesfully. Huge thanks, I fixed my e91 headlight problem with the help of this video.
That's great!
Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Thanks! I fixed my Front left Angel Eyes with your excellent video. I had an error count of 60. The extreme heat this summer killed the aftermarket led I had installed and I thought I had to replace the LCM until I found your video.
That's great!

Your video was super helpful! I spent probably 6 hours over 3 days searching the web for help fixing my BMW tail light. Thank you so much! It wasn't immediately clear to me that you use Toolset 32 for this (which is what I was looking for). I think more people will find this if you mention that in the title. Thanks a million!

E90 323i 2011 MY (Asia Model)
Carly fault codes :
00A8C3 : Break-force display, left...2.Bremslicht left defective, E84: Defective bottom left
Idrive messages : Brake light failure, bottom left
Dashboard errors : "Light Bulb" error indicator (same as per your youtube)
Problem/Incident :
20/10/2019 "Light Bulb" error indicator came "ON" while driving, STOP check seems to be all brake lights working fine.
Check with Carly show above error, however brake light working OK. Try reset with Carly, no success to clear 00A8C3.
Continue driving as normal daily, maybe 1000km + with idrive showing brake light left error all along.
Fixes : 25/12/2019
Purchase/Replaced all with 4 new brake light bulbs OSRAM 7506 12VP/21W. After replacement, able to reset, no ore 00A8C3 errors, drive around for the day, no more errors, consider 100% fixed. (No FTM issues, although has been driving for > 1 month with the brake light error).
Analysis : 25/12/2019
Old 4ea x OSRAM 7506 12VP/21W
3 ea (all OK)
1 ea (physically filament look OK, but No conductivity on terminal)
Just like to share my 2010 E90 experience, which has now clocked approx 160,000km. Keep sharing.

Yes... some bulbs just don't have the resistance the module is expecting... causing the fault...

Hi, im new to bmw E90. Reverse light warning shows up and none of the reverse lights was working. Download all the software and followed your tutorials step by step/word by word and now I feel epic!! Error free and reverse lights are shining bright! Thank you.
That's great!

@@LMAutoRepairs Hi buddy.. I'm back again. This time my whole left/right reverse, rear fog lights not working. Do you think it the FRM playing or need to inspect further.
@@azb786
I would inspect further... scan the car and try to actuate the lights...
Great video! My reverse lights finally works again.

Wow! You helped me out BIG time. I reset the counter thanks to you. Very good video. I did a E90 lci xenon headlight swap to a non lci E90. Connected the interior lights to the angel eyes to get the welcome home lights on my FRM1. The canbus leds were using too much power which triggered the shortcircuit counter. Now I removed the resistors from the leds. Thank you very much from Netherlands!

Hi
Thank you for the feedback and for watching!
Obby V K waar heb je die kabel kunnen kopen om de bmw te connecten aan een laptop?
Top man. Taking the smoke and mirrors out of why this stuff happens. I'm in.👍
If you have short on the wiring, the module detects it... and after 50 cycles if the short has not been repaired, the FRM disables that circuit... that's it...
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
Thanks so much! Followed this video to get my reversing lights working and it did just that. Would have been almost impossible to do without this how to do. Really appreciate you taking the time to upload it.

@@LMAutoRepairs I reset 3 different light counters (fog lights, reverse lights etc) however the rear left fog light (Europe only) now works correctly but the error still remains on the dash, even after trying to clear codes with inpa and cycling the key. I only have JBBF module error A6E3... This is correct since the hatch release or trunk button no longer works. Don't know how to fix that
@@fredanderson8295
If the light is actually working, check bulb and connections... bulb contact points... poor contact might allow the light to work, but will not allow the module to test correctly... alternatively, you can disable the bulb check...😉

+lmsvvavr I spied the power probe wire tracer in the boot, is it worth it? or is a simple tone generator good enough?
+MrAsadEp
It is a recent purchase, haven't used it that many times...
But, it is good depending on the problem you are trying to find...
I haven't used yet to find shorts or open circuits... but have used to trace a wire.... that was very handy, as helped me finding where was going without taking any panels inside the car... handy when you don't have wiring diagrams...
Bottom of line, I wouldn't pay the full selling price, I think is a bit expensive.
I got second hand, and for half of the price of a new one...
I might do a video for it if the opportunity arises...
Hope that helps...
Nice videos.
can you do a video on programming used bmw cas module?
Thank you so much for posting this in great step by step detail. I had exactly the same problem and I hadn't used Toolset32 or INPA before. So I bought a cable and followed your instructions step by step and it has resolved my issue too.
The only thing I couldn't get Tool32 to show was the "Tabellen-Info" window, but as I had the same problem I just copied everything else.
Thanks so much again for going to all the trouble to detail it out!

First of all thank you for the upload, very helpful and educational video, i had a similar problem with dipped beam short circular, had done every thing accordingly, all lights are working fine now but still dipped beam sign appearing on the dash, whats gone wrong, what do i need to do??
orhun20
Hi
Thank you for watching and for your comment!
So, you have reset the short circuit, and the dipped beams are now working again...however on the dash you are getting the warning for faulty dipped beams... it is that correct?
If so, check that the lights cold or hot check has not been disabled...
If enabled, check that the bulb contacts are clean...
Hope that helps....
Great video! I can understand that the module will shut down it's output to protect itself. But why would the engineers decide to go through all of this to enable it again. Why not just have it to clear the code to enable it again? Just amazing how engineers can complicate a procedure...
Thanks!

Can you help me how to do electronic turbo actuator test on BMW 330D by tool32?
So the short circuit count is up to 50 would this happen if you had just a bulb out and never replaced it for example up to 50 turns of the key
Whats the best prevention from this happening
Great vid by the way cheers
Hi
No... a buld out would be an open circuit... not a short...
This is for when there is a short on the circuit... no prevention really, just repair when you have a short circuit...
This happens to protect the module from further damage...

What if there is not code for short circuit fault? It could still need counter reset? Autel scanner can't do counter reset? What other (cheapest) tool can do? The german really scares me.
What if u do a coding (programming / flashing) with autel, does it also do the counter reset (for all light bulb counters)?
Not sure Autel, but I think it can... never had to use it for this procedure...

What about when using INPA or C310 reading module to read and clear errors? I'm scared to bricked the FRM module as this has happen before.
I have a 2006 330xi sedan and the issue I am having is as follows
1. no lights at all work on the back of car turn, brake, running lisense plate. oH THE UPPER BRAKE LIGHT IN WINDOW WORKS.
2. all the headlights, fog lights, side lights and turn signals work in the front of car.
3. all the fuses are good
4. all the lights come on in the back when i check the individually with a jump wire.
what can I do next, kind of stumped
rdshlywood
If the lights on the rear body are not working, then might be something else... the most common problem is the wires that run from the car to the boot lid, tend to brake, as per the video...
but if you have nothing working...
Measure the wires from the rear of the car to the light module... and go from there...
Have you scanned the ECU? Any codes?
hey there great instructions. Would like to ask a question. I have a e92 330i 2008 with auto transmission. My reverse lights are off and PDC comes on almost flickering on the idrive and goes away. Ive read that manual trans have that switch which feeds in FRM but have read conflicting review on how the auto trans transmits the R signal. All FRM related items work and all trans related items work so im guessing theres a loose wire of loose ground? Any advice?
Hi
I might be wrong... so don't quote me on this... as i haven't checked... but I would say on an Auto, that information is transmitted via CAN network from the transmission control unit.
Check live data, and see exactly what is going on...
That would be my first step...

BTW, battery drain issue began after car was in with main dealer BMW for recall work. Thanks Luis.

I would say to the sensors and can... but without checking diagrams is difficult to say...
Disconnect the sensors and see if the drain starts again... and go from there...

Hi, I have a problem with BMW X3 E83 2.5i 2004 drivers side low beam not working and I'm kindly asking for your help.
I changed my original headlights to Angle lights and only the driver's side Low beam has stopped working. I tried changing the bulbs but still, it didn't work I have also swapped the headlight units from left to right and realised the problem lies on the right-hand side as both lights only work on the passenger's side.
I bought the K+DCAN with a switch and have installed BMW INPA software on Win 10 but I'm stuck on which FRM _ counter short circuit modules that need resetting as mine it's an E83 2004 model.
How can I know my FRM_ if its FRM_70 or _90 or LSZ_prg before diving into Tool32.
Any help I would greatly appreciate...
Thanks
Scan the car with inpa, all the details of the module should come up...
Thank you for watching!
@@LMAutoRepairs Hello, I have managed to scan with INPA and mine comes under LSZ_2.prg but now referring to your video on 18:04 when you selected LAMPNRTEXTE[3][33] from the drop-down menu I don't seem to have that option I have scrolled to the bottom. Look here:

Hi @LMAutoRepairs and thanks for this video. I'm unsure on what I'm about to ask and I noticed that some of the comments already addressed this, but I felt it was not the answer I was looking for. So here it goes: Does the Locked FRM behaviour also makes the buzz alarm trigger every 20 seconds? (in my personal case it was the window elevator cable that got stuck and not the anti-trap sign won't go off, beeping every 20 seconds and driving me crazy. I have read in a lot of places that once the FRM (before 2009) reaches the 60 "hits" limit, it blocks and it is not possible to do anything with it, unless you can somehow "hardcode" it again, like you install the "firmware" from scratch. I had to buy one for my 120d due to xenon lights, and then I have already paid once to have the FRM on mt 2006 320d "hardcoded" as mentioned before. Now I'm checking out your video and wanted your help clarifying this before spending un-necessary money on both buying the cable or having it re-coded. Thanks in advance mate, you rock!
Hi
I never had the beep you mention... it can be that is dependent of which circuit is or the software version...
But....

Myself or a fellow member, will be more than happy to help!
Thank you for watching!
@@LMAutoRepairs és português? :) Image the beep that goes on (Chime) when a warning light goes up on the dashboard (i.e a lamp, the gas, a busted tailight) but repeated every 20 seconds while driving. I had a plate light going on and off for quite a while which I would assume was the cause of the FRM buffer to get high, but the warning is about the window anti-trapping system. So... does tool32 have that as well, and.. once the module "locks" is it able to unlock it... note: none of the funcionalities ever stoped working... just repeats the error every 20 sec.
cheers
th-cam.com/video/nvewHlz0rCY/w-d-xo.html this!!!! Just recorded it
So on my 07 328i. I had put aftermarket hid kit, I got the code for the left and right dip beam error. Swapped to original bulbs but error won’t go away. Also ran a scanner on there and it kept showing an shortage, causing also my thermostat to not be working properly. I’m so frustrated on this. Can’t find the solution
Not to mention that my headlights are working perfect, and also having trouble with driver locking door. I dont know if it has to do something with jt
Manuel Barron
Most likely that those issues will not be related... but hey, you never know...
You need to tackle one issue at the time...
For the headlights, it is weird that the lights are working and showing a short circuit...
I presume you have tried to clear those codes and they just don't go away, correct?
Thank you for watching!
LM Auto Repairs correct! I tried clearing them and they are there. One of my headlights housing it’s kinda damaged but all lights work perfect. I want to find out what program I need to scan the car more deeply to see if I can find an answer
Manuel Barron
Any scanner will scan in pretty much the same way... what you can get though, is tools capable of work in other areas of the module... like what I do here...
Get the bmw tools and D-CAN cable, and check that your count for short circuit is not too high or something... if exceeded usually disables the circuit, but if yours still work that is not the case...
Hi. Can you please advise just what I have to buy to carry out this repair (I am not sure about C Cables though)? Many thanks.
D-Can cable... is what is called...
You can buy a cable supplied with all the software... just google it...😉
👍👍👍
@@LMAutoRepairs Hi. Which software am I looking for? Please advise which one. Also do I need Toolset32? Thanks, Steven.
Have you watched the video?
I have explained everything in there...
If you need Toolset32, the answer is in the title...
I have a similar problem but on the face I did not light up a bmw f31 you think you can help
Hi
F chassis are done using a different interface and software...
Never done it on a F series, but presume it is possible... providing this is the problem you have...
Thank you for watching!

Where did you get the English print out of the lamp id?
Can't remember now....

Thank you for watching and for your comment!
I found it good price/quality.
Is not the best scanner, but is definitely not the worst.
I have videos showing what the scanner can do on different cars... might worth to have a look if you are thinking about getting one...
Hope that helps
Hi Luis, a friend has a mini 2012 1.6 turbo someone stole the FRM module from it, he bought a used frm but obviously it didnt work is it possible to code a used FRM so it can work? some guys told him he needs the whole FRM key and DME combo wich is crazy expensive
Yes... should be able to program/code an used FRM...
Thank you for watching!
