Foxwell NT 520 not working right on e53?

Hello all, new Foxwell NT 520 owner and 6 month owner of 2006 e53 with 3.0i.

I’m chasing a few minor things down and, overall, loving the 520. Today I remembered that my headlight washer has never worked and my rear window washer has never worked, despite putting a new relay and pump in.

I thought “Maybe I can test all of that with my new scanner” tonight. So I hooked it up, started navigating and sure enough, I found the ability to activate all washers and wipers! I had my internal spot light on my on the drivers side (it’s dark outside), and when I activated the front screen washer, it didn’t come on (that one works), but my spot light went out. Dome lights come on but now no spot lights. Okay, whatever.

Activate rear pump. Rear driver window rolls down.

Activate wiper motor on speed 1. Rear passenger window rolls down.

Huh? Either the scanner isn’t mapped correctly or my car is in way more trouble than I thought.

Can someone with a 510 or 520 try those features?

I automatically scanned my VIN..

Went into the Controls, Body, #41 ZKE Central body electronics, #1 Windscreen wash/wipe System.

I’m guessing I blew a fuse trying something, which is why my interior spot light went out. If I go into Electric Windows and pick #5 Open rear window, driver’s side, it doesn’t do anything for the window.

Any ideas? Kind of hard to check components if they aren’t mapped correctly, or maybe I’m in the wrong place and shouldn’t be using that selection.
