🤯 ahhh man this guy literally saved me a trip to the service shop. I legit thought my fog light as out until he explained about it illuminates as you turn the wheel. Thxs my guy
Just purchased my 5 series 2 days ago and this literally helped me out so much. I was sitting in my driveway for like 20 minutes trying to figure out how to turn my headlights off
You're kidding right? Nobody can be that incapable to drive.
Stop being an ass
I drive a Tesla and when I have to take my husbands x5 I do the same thing lol sitting there trying to relearn 🤦🏻♀️😆
First time BMW driver here and this video has explained what BMW support couldn’t. Spent the first 10 days with my car convinced my low-beams were faulty because indicator on the instrument panel was never highlighted.
Blows my mind that someone decided that the best indicator for low-beams being active was the icon for the sidelights!?!
Also, Could anyone explain why my low-beams are active regardless of the switch being in the OFF, ON or Automatic position?
Fantastic video, glad I stumbled upon it.
the relief and clarification concerning the turning fog light tip saved me a trip to the dealer THANK YOU
This may help people if troubleshooting lights some day. I needed to see what the Rear View Mirror Light Sensor Was doing with the high beams. If bright daylight out and you want to see high beams when signal stalk is pushed forward High Beams wont click in. Throw a sweat shirt (when parked) over windshield blocking light from back of rear view mirror area fooling it to think it is dark out. High Beams should come on. Remove sweat shirt they will go out thinking it is bright out. I did not test DRL and Low beams but they should work similarly with mirror sensor as well.
Super helpful! Thanks so much!!
Excellent demo
Great video. thank you for this. I have a question. My BMW e46 n46b20, the light won't turn on when I switched to Auto but it's on when I turned to low beam logo. Do you know the problem? Thanks
thanks. Helpful.
Thank you for the informative video.
Thanks for your help
Cheers! Most helpful indeed!
Thanks, it was helpful
thanks for the demonstration. is there a way to turn off lights completely ? I'm conscious of battery life
Great video
Thank you so much this really helped I was wondering why the lights for the doors wasn’t on but it was bc they where to low💯
Nice informative video. Thanks

This car got passed down to me, so thank you for explaining it, I had no clue.
I need to no if you can help me on the light control which position do you need to be in for the light on the instrument to come on I no it dissent come on in daytime running lights
Thank you
Do the instrument panel lights come on at night automatically or at all if the light switch is on 0 daytime running lights?
Can i leave the automatic headlight setting on at all times and if i turn off the car eill my battery be affected?
Why don't euro cars put the light switches on the steering wheel stalk? Regulatory requirement?
Is ok when the light on the gearbox stay on after locking the car? Can it damage the battery?
I have 2016 135i (f20) does it only have the one button for front and back fog lights? I had a 130i (e81) that had one for front and one for back lights
How to adjust fog lights pls
i just have replace one headlight from a crash and I dont know why the auto function is not working for that left headlight, do you know how to fix it? it's a bmw 118i 2015
Do 2017 bmw 320i have automatic highbeam when in dark mode
So is the all the way to the left setting for when you just turn your lights off?
So that green light at 2:40 is just a low beam indicator? Thats normal to be turned on when driving i guess? It said parking lights, so i was confused why its on...
Can I run my parking lights during the day while driving without draining the battery? I like those setting because I want my taillights to be on during the day.
code it
BMW f30: night time and dark outside, how do I turn all lights off with the engine on?
So there is no auto dim headlights on the 2018 X4?
question: I havve a 5 series 2012, and I have low beam and high beam in the outer two headlights, and only "angel eyes" on the inner headlights.
On my previous 3 series, and other bmws i've seen, the inner headlights are highbeams.
I'm confused, is something wrong with my 5 series?
That is normal operation for that year/model. Small details like these vary within the brand but many have different interpretations of how the 4 headlights/halos design cue is applied
@@TeamBimmer Mine is the same way. How do you turn on the inner headlight beams? I can't get them on no matter how I have the switch.
How to change the low beam level ? I mean the line of sight is too low for my BMW 5 GT
That would require service department. There aren't any interior adjustments for that type of setting. There may be certain headlight regulations based on your area
Do I have to physically turn the fog lights on each time or will they come on automatically
Yes, fog lights are manually enabled except the ‘cornering lights’ feature is automatic
Why when I.put my lights automatically after the car won't start?? I don't know whats the problem I buy new battery and all what she nedd to be changed i did still the car won't start once they lights are in auto? 🙄
dumb question but what are standing lights? is that the daytime running lights?
I think it’s more of a common European market feature that just carried over to the US. If you leave the turn signal stock in the upward/downward position a corresponding set of lights illuminate on the side of the vehicle. Usually used to assist in making the vehicle more easily visible in a narrow, poorly lit city street
Can I just always leave it in “A” even when I park for the night or will that drain the battery? Thanks
It turns off when you turn the car off. You can leave it like that
Hi there, can you help? Bmw x5 lights switch from auto to on by itself once the engine is switched off. We leave on auto but come back to Car to find they have changed to on. Any thoughts?
Do you have the adjustment knob like in the video? What year is the X5?
Lock the doors are shutting off car, and exiting vehicle with the button.
This might help?
hello, i just got a 2013 bmw x1 and I pushed the dial in and now it’s stuck is this normal? it still turns to the right or left
So is there no way of turning of the headlights during the day ?
I have a 2005 bmw 745il and i wanna know how to leave the high beams on so i just have to put the lights in automatic?
Push forward, that's how it works on my E90

Yes, I would leave it in auto
Yeah its best to leave it on ‘auto’

Ive noticed that about mines too.
tim kormendy which year is your bmw
How do I totally turn lights off when I park like other cars?
Should be the position that looks like a “0”
I went to get my car registered at the dmv and they told me my headlights were not on when I had them on automatic though they could see the “angel eyes” clearly on, which are the automatic headlights according to the manufacturer. Is there something I’m missing or is there a possibility he was just screwing with me?
DMV is likely checking that your headlamps are fully operational. The 'angel eyes' are daytime running lights that turn on when the light sensor recognizes that is bright enough outside to not require the headlights on. To override this in the daytime you'll want to manually turn on the headlights, switching them out of automatic
watching this for my mini
How to off the headlights during the day? I just cant figure how to turn it off???

Hi
I’ve been driving with the parking lights bc people kept flashing me😭
I concur. 😩 so agg
Same here
My husband just got upset at me because I set the lights to auto 🤦🏻♀️😆 he said they came on when he turned the car (he was in the garage which is why they came on in auto). He won’t admit I’m right to leave them on auto. Exhausting
What is the smaller light next to the inside of the headlight
Ok, never mind. Cornering lights. Just got my car, still figuring everything out lol thanks for the tutorials though. Have to play and learn
My lights come on, on auto even in the day. Smh
Do you have your DRLs activated and confusing those with headlights?
It could be your DRL’s
