Parking/side lights not working…

Hi guys,

I’ve recent bought a f56 and am trying to fix the issues I have found. One of them is that the parking/side lights on the passenger side won’t turn on…
I’ve checked the bulb and it works fine.
the connector has continuity to battery ground and has continuity to the comb connector behind the headlight.
it just gets no voltage… so I am very stuck as to why this is…

If you have any advice I would be extremely grateful!

I am trying to replace the fog light bulb for a 2014 Mini Cooper. But I can’t get the bulb out. There is a plastic piece in the way preventing me from turning the bulb counterclockwise.

Yea, took it to a dealership and they said it was just a connector issue.

I'm curious, did the infotainment system alert you about the bulb/light malfunction?
