Weird Headlight Issue
Trying to make sense of a very strange headlight issue I’m having. I have a 2010 135 with the adaptive xenon lights. I have no codes and both lights visually appear to be on visually. Both lights have brand new bulbs. One projector looks normal and the other seems to be throwing no actual light while still turning on. The attached picture should show what I mean. If you look at the car straight on you will see both lights are on but the passenger side has no beam at all. With no errors I’m not even sure where to start with this. Anyone seen this before?

Double check you installed it correctly. Also you may need to level up the passenger side. There is a level screw you can use to level the headlights.

It is definitely installed and illuminated but no beam coming out.
The leveling screws are set to level there is still light coming out but not a strong beam. There is still a cutoff line and that is pretty level with each other. I'm very stumped. |

I have no idea what to do about this.
Does anyone sell LED Headlight conversions or full likes like the newer bmws have? Not looking for LED angel eyes, actual led lights. |

There are very many BMWCCA clubs, and many BMW indy garages in your area. The clubs and garages are more than willing to help you out. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullit. [sp] |

Did you try swapping the bulbs and see if the problem follows?
