And idea what line in the TRC file? Was it PWM_?

You were right.

PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL is altered by 0B, 05 in line 21.
PWM_SL_1_FKT_PARKL is altered by 06, 21 in line 21.

B 00340600,0010,04,7C,06,21,0B,05,06,21,1F,FF,1F,FF,1F,FF,0B,8E

I changed 0B, 05 to D7, 0A (12.2 volts) and no change in brightness. Should the 06, 21 be changed to the same value? The only reason I didn't is because according to the PDF which explains how to convert the voltage to the hex, 06, 21 = 1.xx volts (doesn't sound right), whereas 0B, 05 refers to 5.xx volts.

Sorry for being annoying I am just trying to understand how it works.

In my car (2009 E90) the AE brightness when headlights on was PWM_RL_BL_1_FKT_SL

No idea where about this value is in FRM3, shouldn't be too hard to find it.

Can you please tell us which value it is for the welcome light length and welcome light AE brightness?
I got it. It's WL_DAUER and brightness equals the settings of parking light brightness.

Any idea what FKT or TFL means?

I don't know exactly what the difference between 1 and 2 is but sincle I am from germany I can help you translate the cryptic letters.

BL = Braking Lights ("Bremslicht") (these often are AE undimmed - so the abbreviation in fact is misleading
SL = most likely parking light ("Standlicht") (AE dimmed)
FKT = most likely refers to the FUNKTION DE or FUNCTION ENG as which the light is being used. E.g.: NSL_FKT_SL is the fog lights when being used as parking light.
TFL = daytime running light (AE bright)

In germany we differ between Parklicht (PARKL) and Standlicht (SL). Both is to be used when the vehicle is stationary in germany. The Parklicht in fact is the Standlicht when only activated either on the left or the right side of the vehicle. Technically, as you know, it looks the same except that one side is dark

I write the german translations in just to complete this.
AL = low beams (Abblendlicht)
FL = high beams (Fernlicht)
WL = welcome lights (Welcome Light, no german here)
SL = parking lights (Difference between 1 and 2 is front and back) Standlicht in GER
NSW = fog lights (Nebelscheinwerfer)
POL = corner led (pretty sure)
KZL = license plate LED Kennzeichenleuchte
FRA = ambient light? could be "Fußraumausleuchtung" - ambient light in the inside on the ground where your feet are
TFL = daytime running lights Tagfahrlicht
NSL = rear fog lights Nebelschlussleuchte

Is this the brightness settings for the AE when using as DRL (PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL) and when using parking light (PWM_SL_1_FKT_PARKL)?

Normally it's 'Bremslicht' oder 'Bremsleuchten', this is the only case where it differs (das war zumindest immer meine Meinung...)

Bremsleuchten = breaking lights

I found out how to change brightness on my 2011 E91, with a NFRM / FRM3_E89.C32

i coded:

PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL
 => changed from 0A,D7 to 0C,2C
PWM_SL_1_FKT_SL_TFL
 => changed from 06,38 to 0C,2C

sometimes you have to switch the bytes in order to get it working porperly. Just watch at the layout of the bytes first.

Hint: It's much easier to change the values with NCSDummy instead of coding/reading/recoding them to the car.

Thanks to onebadmofo, I googled around to solve this problem for me and found this topic. Usually I am on ********* forum.

ciao,

Andreas

[Hanzoligen]

Yep, I think you are right.
When coding HEX values to change voltage I am pretty sure it should be xx,1x for percentage of maximum (relative) and xx,0x for voltage values (absolute) in the NETTODAT file. I never heard of anything different.

In NETTODAT it reads for example 8D,0C
The first character of the second byte (=0) indicates this value is written in voltage rather than in percentage.
To decode the voltage simply put the second character of the second byte (=C) in front of the first byte and calculate

Ueff * 4095 digits / 18V = [C8D in dez]

I think you can calculate the rest for your own.

[nitehawk]

So I guess LED dimming does not apply with LUX angel eyes? I noticed that they don't dim at all from DRL to low beams on?

[makkan00]

Sorry to dig out this old thread.

I am going to to put what I understand and later ask 1 question.

On FRM3, these values should be changes to have 13.7V

PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL
=> changed from 0A,D7 to 0C,2C
PWM_SL_1_FKT_SL_TFL
=> changed from 06,38 to 0C,2C

On FRM2

PWM_ANSTEUERUNG_RL_BL_1
changes to OC, 2C

Now I am referring to FRM2. Since it is for BL (Braking light = undimmed AL), how do I change for SL (Parking light = dimmed)?

What string should I look for in FRM2 to change voltage of SL (Parking light = dimmed)?


Or is there any other way of coding Angle eyes to max brightness when they are on as parking lights?

Thanks.

[Hanzoligen]

Values with ANSTEUERUNG should be FRM3 if I am correctly.
I dont have the exact value on hand for parking light angel eye brightness in FRM2, but search for PWM_...._FKT_PARKL

I believe it was PWM_RL_BL_1_FKT_PARKL

You have to differ between the two parking lights (_SL and _PARKL)

In germany we differ between Parklicht (PARKL) and Standlicht (SL). Both is to be used when the vehicle is stationary in germany. The Parklicht in fact is the Standlicht when only activated either on the left or the right side of the vehicle. Technically, as you know, it looks the same except that one side is dark

The SL value sets the brightness for the angel eyes when low beams are on, too. This can't be edited seperately becuase parking lights always turn on when low beams are activated. No way to seperate this.

i Have got FRM3, and I have been trying for sometime now, i get the TRC file, add new values using NCS dummy OC,2C for both:
PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL & PWM_SL_1_FKT_SL_TFL

but when i try to code the car using nettodat.MAN file it doesnt work out.
1. i use revtor expert mode in NCS expert as a profile
2. i go through CAS module, then NFRM afterwards

is that right? can you review through this thread and let me know if you got any ideas

[d1saster]

I know I am resurrecting an old thread but it appears nobody answered the OP's question. He has an E92 LCI which has OEM LED AEs. The responses below his question all relate to halogen AE, which are governed by voltage. LEDs are not affected by changing the voltage with PWM. I tried all suggested functions to all possible values, even 0% and 0 volts without any effect.

PWM_SL_1_FKT_SL_TFL
PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL

The functions above are set to 100% since that's what LEDs need. Although changing to 0% doesn't change anything.

So I would like to ask again the OP's question:

Hi, yes you can change the brightness, on earlier models, mine is an 09 LCI they originally had Halogen for the Halos, these did dim when you switched the main headlamps on. I changed to LED and they did still dim. I followed the coding in this thread and they improved to about 98% brightness with headlamps on. No settings I found give you the 100% that I could find.

Cheers

Hi Guys

I need help to increase my 2009 335i NFRM Angel eye LED to 13.7V brightness. So I changed the PWM_RL_BL_1_FKT_SL to "wert01" value and then I compared the nettodat before and after. Please see my attachment.

The value changed on the memory address: 00341500, and the byte that changed was line 36, 8th byte down, "2F" to "0F". Yes, the angel eyes did get brighter when the headlight is on now, but I manually measured the voltage coming out of the H8. With engine off, it's 10.18V, when engine on it's 10.8V.

This is still not 13.7V. So then I changed this to:

B 00341500,0010,28,27,28,2F,28,2F,2C,0C,28,2F,28,27,00,00,00,00

but that didn't change the voltage. Should it be 0C, 2C ? swapped around?

[Ladooo]

Hi guys, resurrecting this thread to try increase angel eyes brightness WHEN Headlights/Xenon are ON.
Using Bimmercode I have set angel eyes to max in DRL mode fine. But no affect on the Standing or Parking light when change those corresponding settings.

Attached is a screenshot of all the options available under this category, from experience & using Carly + Bimmercode I am pretty sure a group of settings need changing together to make any noticeable overall change.

Any help/advice much appreciated.

Attachment 2270120

[Ladooo]

Update, for the FRM3_E89 So far I have figured out how to adjust front & rear DRL brightness, but if someone could help with the highlighted ?? ?? please

DRL FRONT(Angel Eyes):
PWM_SL_1_FKT_BL_TFL = 0D 1A(Very High)

PARKING LIGHT FRONT:
PWM_SL_1_FKT_SL_TFL= ?? ??

STANDING LIGHT FRONT:
PWM_SL_1_FKT_PARKL = ?? ??

?? ??
PWM_BL_FKT_SL = ?? ??

Doing some research from various other posts I have tried a wide range of values in different combinations & did manage to get the Angel Eyes Bright With Headlights/Xenons ON! BUT...there was a error as they were on Permenantly with ignition & so had to code back to default. So seems there is a way to do it but just need to figure out the correct settings.

[PhatKat]

Okay Guys.... Resurrecting this thread because I've tried all the applicable coding options for my FRM3 but NOTHING has worked thus far.

Here's what I have:
2011 E93 LCI (manufacture date 01/2011)
Bi-Xenon Headlights
LED Angel Eyes
FRM3 (FRM3_E89.C33)

There's a lot of talk about RL (ringlight) being the item to look for in NCS Dummy to change the NETTODAT data, but I've learned this is specifically for the FRM2 modules.

There's scant information about SL (standing light) as it relates to the Angel Eyes but I've changed every PWM value related to SL and I still get dimmed Angel Eyes when I turn the headlights on.

Please, if anyone can help me find the correct values to change, I beg you to help me!

Thanks!
