Have you checked to see if the bulbs are burnt out?
Question for the forum: The e53s with the pano roof...their rear lights are located on the side above the windows near the coat hanger/hooks...are the regular & no sunroof models rear lights located in the center of the headliner?

Any idea what the different wires going into this connector are? I believe this is from the light control module (thanks to Qsilver7) but I am unsure what each wire carries in terms of a signal. Trying to figure out how to install an Alpine PKG-RSE2 and looking for the wire that represents the door so that when I open it it will turn on the built-in LED's of the Alpine overhead DVD player.

this is the problem with aftermarket devices and BMWs - the BMW does not use dry contact to monitor door status, it is using Hall Effect sensor to report to door module, that sends an iBus telegram to GM module that commands the LCM module to react in certain way.
you need to intercept that signal, let the relay take over the door contact wire and take it from there... |
