My LED Canbus adapters still bring up an error code? Can I use them and use bimmercode to code out the cornering light so the LEDs work with no error code

You should be able to. But when you code it out you'll code out the high beam bulb, even though there's no high beam bulb.

I've coded mine through Carly, but I assume it's similar. It's in the FRM and you'd just turn off the voltage check monitoring.

Yes. There is no high beam bulb on our cars because of the bi-xenon setup, assuming you have bi-xenons and not halogens. The cornering light takes place in the housing for the high beam. If there is an option to disable cornering light voltage I'd do it too

It's an M5.
I just coded out the high and low beam voltage and no error.
Thanks mate. Also changed my D1S to 6000k
Appreciate the assistance mate!
I don't mind the error code not being there I'll know if the bulb is dud I'll see it won't be as bright!

Bimmercode can also make the required coding changes. I need to do this mod as well.

Yeah noticed a difference.
The led I used were GT ultra 5700k LED
The D1S I used osram cool blue intense 6000k
I just hope the demons get slightly brighter with use!
I also used bimmercode to make my halos 100% brightness

For anyone that wants to use E-Sys to turn off the error message from LED cornering lights:

Make the following updates in the "FRM" ECU

For LEFT Front cornering light

AUSG_09_FL_WARM_WEBERW_AKTIVE
Aktiv -> Nicht_aktiv

AUSG_09_FL_L_KALT_WEBERW_AKTIVE
Aktiv -> Nicht_aktiv

AUSG_09_FL_L_IS_LED
Nicht_aktiv -> Aktiv

For RIGHT Front cornering light

AUSG_10_FL_R_WARM_WEBERW_AKTIVE
Aktiv -> Nicht_aktiv

AUSG_10_FL_R_KALT_WEBERW_AKTIVE
Aktiv -> Nicht_aktiv

AUSG_10_FL_R_IS_LED
Nicht_aktiv -> Aktiv

I swapped halogen to LED without using any additional cables. Updated FRM ecu and coded to vehicle. No more errors on dash from cornering LED's.

This was a fun read. For those who are actually still interested in this and not pointless internet trolling...

1) I found the easier way to get the locking bulb harness in place is to slip one hand in with your palm facing you, then slip the other hand directly in front of it with the back of your second hand against the palm of your first. Use your index finger to apply pressure against one of the locking tabs and the other index finger against the other tab.

2) there’s no way to code out the flicker. You need to buy a resistor 6ohms or an adapter like this one
HIKARI Pair LED Conversion Kit Headlight Canbus Error Free Anti Flickering Resistor Decoder - H7 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07688V7V9..._xkDzEbS69WJKS

3) you may have to code out the malfunction light depending on the led you installed. This shouldn’t be a problem because the warm and cold monitoring is for halogen lights. Code the cold and warm monitoring for high beams to inactive. The high beams on the f10 represent the cornering lights because of the light wells location being standard high beams on older models. Yes the actual high beams are in the same outer well as the xenons.
