Interior lighting problem need help please
 
So i installed led angel eyes on my e53. Followed the instructions but it wouldn't stay on. Only fade in fade out and when my door is open I connected the trigger wire to the interior lights. So my dumb ass connected a positive wire to the trigger wire. So when I turned on the car it would stay on but the interior lights stayed on. So I cut the positive wire of the trigger wire. Instead of turning the car off. And now my interior lights won't go on at all and my parking sensors aren't working properly also my self leveling suspension is saying Inactive. I need help figuring this out please and thank you.

It's been a long time since I did my AEs (I think I may have even gotten frustrated and taken it to a local stereo shop for them to do), but from what I recall: the power line needs to be connected to the power terminal on the firewall, run it through a relay to the corona rings, trigger wire can be connect in a number of ways depending on how you want to actually trigger them. I only wanted them on with parking lights and headlights, so I had it wired to the parking light terminal on the LCM. I suggest taking it to a shop, IIRC it wasn't but like $75 to have them install.

Have you checked your fuses?

Yes all fuses check out. I'm wondering if there's anything to do with the FRM and or LCM and hoping it's not the GM. I might just have bmw look at it. First b4 I do any diy stuff. But if any one has any idea why my parking sensors don't work. All my tail lights are stating its bulbs are not on. My air leveling suspension is saying In active. And my interior lights aren't working.

There was an addendum posted a while back when the AE retrofit first became popular that dealt with PDC. Let me see if I can find it.
