If we have exactly the same everything, my only explanation would be that when wiring harnesses are made in the factory, when a spool of wire with one color of jacket runs out on the reel, a different jacket color is used until the reel is replaced by a fresh spool of wire with the original jacket color. This goes for all wiring EXCEPT for ground wires in the harness, which are always brown. The Germans prefer production efficiency I guess.

Crazy huh?

But, if that were the case, you should have had +12VDC with running lights on, on the same pin as me, regardless of wire jacket color. Since you don't, I think that we have an inter-year difference going on with the LCM. Do you have the same exact LCM? I wish I could help further but my limited knowledge ends there. What were the results of the voltage test on the your LCM's pin with the brown/white wire ?

Yes, exactly. By using this switch in this position:

Yes, IMHO running just the LED's looks very aggressive on an overcast day and near dawn/dusk.
