headlights not running test at startup

Hi All, I recently noticed that my xenon headlights are not moving up and down at startup as they used to. They should run through this test at start up.
Has anyone solved this problem or ideas how to fix it?
Thank you.

Read codes. You need BMW scanner such as foxwell.

What did you use to check codes?
What codes did show? (No matter for what)

I am using Autophix 7910 it scanned 16 modules and found errors on the following
- 4F Activation, oxygen sensor heater behind catalytic, bank 1
I have to inspect wires and or change O2 sensor
- VTG Transfer Case, oil wear
changed the transfer case oil, but unable to reset this one
- LEW Steering-angle Sensor
14020109 The fault code is not found in the database
- PDC Park Distance Control
3002011B The fault code is not found in the database
- ZKE Central Body Electronics (the following 5 codes)
59 Central-locking drive, driver's door, interrupted
55 Relay for central-locking drives, rear, double locking, does not pick up
A5 The fault code is not found in the database
A6 Fuse, low-beam headlights 30b (I don't know what this means as all lights light up low beam, high beam, fog, driving lights)
A7 The fault code is not found in the database

What scanner do you have? I can run the lights though their paces with the scanner.

Does your light have auto mode?

If you have an error regarding low beam headlights that's the first thing to check. Maybe the motors for the headlight aim is a separate fuse which makes a lot of sense

hopefully that is faulty and will fix my other two problems mentioned above with the heated oxygen sensor and the transfer case oil quality sensor


BUT nothing about low beam fuse, BUT a few fuses for Light Module that I will inspect
