Adaptive Headlight Problem

So I've searched this subject, but no one seems to have the answer....My driver side xenon headlight on my 2007 335xi is stuck pointing in....Brought it to the dealer twice but no luck as of yet. Went again today after they said it was ready but it still points in. They replaced the whole xenon light and programmed it, but that didn't work obviously. The passenger side headlight works fine. When I start the car, the broken headlight moves left-right-up-down but goes originally back to pointing in. Yes, the headlight position is in Automatic. I LED signals with resistors that worked previosuly with no problem. JB4 is also installed but in stealth mode. No errors are popping up either on the cluster... Someone please help b/c I don't know if my service department knows what's going on.

I'd be pointing my finger at the [Footwell Module] FRMx (x being a number, with higher numbers being a newer version) lighting control module. Perhaps it needs to be re-coded, replaced, or upgraded?

Sorry to sound dumb but where is that located? Easy way to tell? How can I get a new one and what might it cost? Thanks so much for the input .
