Hello All! Not sure if this should go here or in the Mods thread, so feel free to move if needed...

I recently purchased an '09 MCS (build date 03/2009). It has a few issues but I'm focusing on the headlights at this point. When I purchased it, it had strobing headlights. After getting cables and programs, I reset the FRM to the VO(FA) and my headlights no longer strobe! I don't, however, have high beam function (or hazard lamp), both were present prior to recoding to stock. I have combed through the FRM code in NCS Dummy and everything *looks* like it should for my car. Headlights are the 35w Bi-Xenon headlamps, apparently stock based on function with factory rewrite of FRM. Datens v60.1. FRM update performed with WinFPK.

Diagnostics performed so far: Check switch function with INPA under E90 chassis - no signal indication, both on high beam or flash-to-pass. All other functions on stick work (intermittent and turn signals, auto through manual running/headlight switch, and computer selector button). Activation of shield with Schwaben - shield activates.

Potential underlying problem
1) Switch short - unlikely with the function prior to rewrite, but possible.
2) Coding issue - I may have some options wrong on my coding.
3) Datens too new for appropriate function.

So here I am, asking if anyone has experienced this issue before. I have used my GoogleFu, but the only similar issues I have seen are with the retro kits. Appreciate your help!!!

 

SOLVED!!!

Issue was loose/dirty connections on the input connectors at the FRM.
