However, the car repeatedly displayed a lighting malfunction: &#8220;Right low beam defective&#8221; and &#8220;Right high beam defective.&#8221; The headlights were on, and the high beam also worked flawlessly. The car&#8217;s owner is the wife of a local garage owner. He had done all the inspection himself and checked everything on the right side: the bulb, connector, and wiring were good.<\/p>\n<h3>Working method<\/h3>\n<p>We first scanned the vehicle with BMW ISTA. We found error code 805B19 \u2013 FLE_R: Low-beam headlight 2: Short circuit to ground. This often indicates a software malfunction in the control system. The lighting is controlled by the BDC control unit. This is a common problem, and we were able to resolve it with the software. Fortunately, we didn&#8217;t need to install a new expensive bulb costing hundreds of euros. While we were working, we discovered that the map version was from 2017. We immediately updated the navigation maps to a recent version.<\/p>\n<h3>Result<\/h3>\n<p>After our software work, the lighting problem is gone. The right-hand low and high beams are working and are recognized correctly. The navigation system is up-to-date and navigates smoothly again. Two birds with one stone for this Mini F56 Cooper. Enjoy driving!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1771,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"project_image":"1771","project_short_desc":"","rank_math_description":""},"class_list":["post-1891","cases","type-cases","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","case-cat-case-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/crwr.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cases\/1891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/crwr.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cases"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/crwr.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cases"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crwr.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1771"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/crwr.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
