Just an update to the group - I raised these headlights up quite a bit last night, and they are now WAY BETTER than before - the factory really keeps them very very low.
Of course, the $64M question now is what is up with my headlights? Apparently the high beam is run off the FRM, at least according to Tony (need to confirm that). The White/blue and White/Green wires run the high beam. I am wondering if I can check voltage coming out of the FRM of these two wires? I'll need to check with him before I destroy any modules. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. This is so frustrating. Chris

Still sorting this out, but getting closer.
My service tech discovered new information regarding retrofit kits. The instructions I was originally working from is dated 5/2012, yet the latest revision occurred in 2014 and includes a wiring harness with 5 branches at the headlight connectors (X13420 & X13421) instead of 4. In cars without SA524 (ADAPTIVE CORNERING FOG LIGHTS/ not adaptive headlights), this revision utilizes all of them. The best news is that this revision no longer requires a FRM module replacement! I will try to acquire the latest revision and post it here once I know that mine will be finished, coded and working perfectly.

The odd things is that Tony, Jeff and others have got this working with the original harness we used, so something is amiss.... All I know is that I want my expensive headlights to work properly on my expensive car  Chris

I have the E71 X6M, so I do not have fog lights on my vehicle. Thus, the "ADAPTIVE CORNERING FOG LIGHTS" wouldn't apply in my case.

I can confirm, despite the fact that I don't have high beams right now, that the wiring in the LED retrofit for "524 - Adaptive Lights" worked for my X6 WITH fog lights, as the fogs turn on when you turn the steering wheel at slow speeds as expected.
I am waiting for Tony to return back to his shop on Wednesday, in hopes to get the LED wiring diagram so I can see if I'm getting 12V to the high beams. If I'm not, I know something is up with the FRM and I'll order a new one. Otherwise, something may be up with the lights, and then I have an expensive decision to make. Chris

OK so I took my harness out to have a quick look before installation and I seem to have the new updated harness with 5 wires on the headlight ends. Note the FRM end now has 6 wires in total.
Not checked off the colours on old instructions, but I'm eager to see the updated instructions now, hopefully Tim gets them soon!
