E53 Electrical Gremlins

[Juut]

Morning all,


E53 3.0D - Looking for some suggestions/confirmation on the below.


Issues:


1. Both front main headlight unit indicators keep burning out on the bulbs contacts. At a glance I'm suspecting worn bulb holders not holding them tight enough causing a arc. They are fairly brittle, Thoughts?


2. My central locking has gone dead entirely. Keys got power etc tried all the reset and nothing. Suggestions on the web seem to be the GM Module. Correct or other places I should look? )I should also not I mean dead at the key, works via door lock / internal button )


All fuses are fine - None have blown and all tested ok. I have a spare GM module but aware this requires coding?

Cheers!
