[IsaacVky]

Good evening dai ko dai jie, abang kakak :top:My E39 angel eyes kaput one side, the other side is ok. When I switch on the light one turn (Xenon off), one side eyes is on but the other side signal came on pula. What is the problem? Thanks :top:

buy a new one bro...now cheap already..

 

[affan66]

if yours come as the ori angel eyes, I don't think it can be fixed. Quite pricey as you need to change the whole piece. This info is based on my observation 1-2 years back on owners of E39 sending their cars to M-Speed with this problem. I am not sure if there is a repair kit for this or a cheaper alternative too.

Faulty Light Control Module

Hi Isaac,

There is likelyhood that the LCM has kaput. Mine has. Bavarian Auto quoted me RM1.k but they have no stock at this moment. A workshop in PJ has offered to get a used one - most likely a re-con. Most electronic circuit boards can be repaired. The ABS module in my T5 is abt RM2.5k to replace, a repaired one is only RM400. If you replace the faulty module, don't throw it away, some guys in Pasar Road may be able to repair it to be used as a spare later.

Here is an article to repair LCM (file too big to upload, will paste a link later)

Happy ride

U r welcomed, Jerman

Other than the engine & gearbox, most stuff can be DIY with the right tools. Most ABS module failure (no speedometer reading, etc) are due to heat in the engine compact causing the soldering (at the connector) to melt off. The ABS module is sealed in a plastic casing. The cure is cut open the plastic casing at the joint line, re-solder the circuit and re-pack with silicon.

If you guys have any faulty ABS and other electronic modules to dispose off, I shall gladly take them off you.
