F10 550i Puddle Lights

Dif-one · 08-29-2022, 03:42 AM

Soooo of the 4 doors only one of the puddle lights are working now. Is this a fuse problem? If so which fuses would control door lighting (located in glove or trunk?) Or do I need to tear into the door and see the wiring? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

Probably just burned out bulbs.

You can remove the lights from the door card without taking the door card off.

I was overthinking it. Yes new bulbs. Anyone know what kind they are by off chance?

Part database site? Went to LIGHT diagrams and looks like it’s probably #9, #4, or #2 which should be easy to verify if you:

Open door
Pull out light
Look at bulb

Whichever light bulb it is, you can simply google “BMW xx xx x xxx xxx” (where x- the actual BMW part number)…or take the bulb to a local auto parts store to find a compatible bulb.
