How do I get the foglights to come on automatically with the headlights?
Does anyone know how to automatically get the foglights to come on with the headlights on a 2017 Bmw X1? I have to manually click the foglight button for them to turn on. I want them to come on with my normal headlamps.

Can't be done.
Not sure if a coding option exists but last time I was in BimmerCode non expert mode I didn't see it. It's illegal in most European countries including Germany to have them auto on or on when no fog exists so that could explain why.

I don't have them come on automatically with headlights, but I did code them to remain on with high beams and to turn them on without turning on the headlights. I also installed LED bulbs that match the LED headlights perfectly

For instance, if you going around a tight left-hand bend the left-hand one only illuminates. Once the car is straightened up, the fog light that has functioned turns off automatically. This only happens when the main lights are switched on.

This was the plan. Get LED bulbs to match the headlights. Gives extra light. But want it to come on at the same time as the headlights.

I coded this when I got my car (2020 LCI X1 M Sport) and recoded it again a few months ago after an ECU/iDrive update reset all of my codes BimmerCode Expert Mode for F48 X1 FEM_BODY 3063 MAPPING _ NEBELSCHEW _ L _ function value 3 FEM_BODY 3063 MAPPING _ NEBELSCHEW _ R _ function value 3 The default for both options is 8 I believe. After coding this, whenever your headlights are on (not DRL), your fogs will be on. I lifted this from an F30 forum long ago. I totally love the look! PM me if you have trouble!

On my e36 and e90 I wired both to only have angel eyes plus fog lights. That's my fave look. |
