- In this video I show you how to diagnose and fix a "burned out" rear running light on a 2015 BMW X3. My issue was a faulty LED controller chip, located on the back side of the taillight. I purchased a new chip on Amazon which fixed the problem. Hope this helps!

You definatley walked me through it, i got the right board...2 things made this easy: 1) the existing board is hot pressed in so i zip tied the new board to it without heating out the old board. 2) The nut to remove the fixture is 8mm...2 small details to make an easy job even easier-Thanks again.
I can't push the the whole tail light out?????
0:35 Lifetime of the vehicle is 60k miles according to BMW. I asked my service advisor about the transmission fluid lifetime.
just replaced the chips on my 2012 BMW X3 F25 tail lights. Was super easy.
What chips did you order? I have this problem too 😊
Love that you found a workaround!
Great work, just changed one on the tail and one on the side. Thanks for the video.
I watched this two days ago and fixed it by myself tonight. It was easy and saved me a lot of money.
I had a big argument with my South Florida BMW service advisor as he kept saying this is for European X3 versions. Ended up doing this myself.
I have the same response from my dealer ,
My tailgate light doesn't have this chip , I have no idea how to fix it and even tho I took my car to some shops and they kept telling me it's an European style car 🤦🤦
Appreciated! Mine just went out and figured it’d be an easy fix but wanted to watch a tutorial to be sure
Great video! Have you done much more to the golf recently?
Thanks man, this was very helpful.
Thanks mate, just fixed mine with the help of this video and the parts link. Thanks heaps mate.
I like your Dave mattehews band sticker ✌️
I seen them on Amazon aswell but I’m curious to know if your hearing any buzzing through your radio with that type of chip board off Amazon ?
great video, can i use the same module/chip for BMW x1, 2016, F48?
Same on 2016 x1, any idea?
It worked for me. Thanks.
Do you need special tool for removing the screw or a phillips head screwdriver would do the job?
Hi, do you know if theirs a fuse for angel eye headlights? Thanks
so easy!! many thanks
Hello! This kit repaird can be used also on Bmw 2 series 2016 active tourer,F45?I have the same issue
You can repair the board easily or replace it. All it is LED "driver". The board just puts resistance between the 12V input and the LED light. They also add caps to prevent flickering as the voltage changes.
Cost on that chip and where to locate?
Really useful video - thank you.
I have a 2015 X3. I pulled out the taillight as you did but I do not have the wire for the controller. Is there another fix.
Just did this. Two replacement driver boards $12 from ebay. 10 minutes fix time.
I like the power tailgate
Hello, what kind of screw driver i have to buy? I am trying to remove mine too but i don't have the tools. Thank you
So besides amazon where can I get the chip bc I need it fixed ASAP
A few of my bulbs seem to broken which is weird. Do you know what kind of Amazon I would need. They want to charge me 1800 bucks. They said my break and signal work just when it’s running lights don’t work.
worked for me
I hope these will work on my 2012 bmw x 3 tail running lights don’t work .
Excelente ! si me ayudó 👍
What is the chip called?
❤
RE-SOLDER the R750 chip, thank me later. This is the fix on the OEM Valeo LED chip board.
I couldn’t push my light out that easy I’m super frustrated
Same, ever get it figured out?
You’d probably figured out 10 months ago. I had the same issue. A simple pry with the trim remover solved it. I was initially equally frustrated as well.
