What exactly was coded out?
On many vehicles, the front parking lamp is a low wattage lamp fitted off-centre in the main headlight reflector.
As I mentioned above, I don't think the LCI E53 X5 actually has "parking lamps" in the headlight units - just low beam, high beam, signal and halo (AEs)...
Also, on later Euro-spec cars at least, if a halo (AE) lamp fails the LKM will power up the same-side signal lamp as a temporary replacement until the halo (AE) lamp is replaced.
Perhaps this is a case of "lost in translation"? In this part of the world, parking lights are the first position on the light switch, between off and normal headlights. Parking lighting is normal tail lights and a low wattage front light on each front corner, in the case of a LCI E53 X5, that's the AEs.
Perhaps your definition of "parking lights" is different?
