How to get your lights working again on a BMW X5 E53 by replacing the Light Control Module (LCM).
AKA: Light Check Module.
No coding needed, but... your red tamper dot will be on in the dashboard, and if the previous car did not have Xenon headlights but yours does, then it may not display the proper lights for daytime running lights or high beams. That was the case with mine but I eventually got all the software and cables to code away the tamper dot and fix my high beams.
If you want to get rid of the red tamper dot, watch the RU-vid video:
“Coding New Light Module | BMW E46 LED Retrofit PART 2”
Here is the link:
• Coding New Light Modul...
If you need to code your LCM so it knows your car has Xenon lights, or to keep your fog lights on with high beams, etc. watch this RU-vid video for where to get the software and cable and how to install it:
“The EASIEST Setup Guide INPA and NCS EXPERT”
Here is the link:

To learn how to use NCS EXPERT to code your car, I recommend the following video. It is long and unedited but is a newbie following an experts step-by-step instructions and I found it very helpful. It’s called:

I did change lcm on my 2006 3.0d ( I bought lcm with the same part no.) . And it worked as well. The only think is that small dot appered next to speedometer as you say. Similar symptoms... Saved me lots of cash. Thank you buddy

Hi Corey, wondering if you have time to check something for me on your LCM connector X10117 (that's the wide black one in the middle). I've swapped an LCM 4 w/auto LWR into my E39 and am running the wires for the LWR stepper motors to retrofit the factory Xenon headlights but I can't find the proper wiring diagram anywhere to tell me exactly which wires go to which pins in the LCM. At 4:07 in your video I can see the wires running into the plug so if you've got some time to open the connector and check you'd be able to let me know the proper pinout.

Not 100%, but most likely it is an issue with your LCM.

When replacing the LCM to one bought from ebay do you have to reprogram it to the your 2002 e53 specs or you can just put it put in the car?
@AK907dude
@AK907dude 2 года назад
You don’t have to but you’ll probably want to. More details in the description of the video. I highly recommend you read that.

@scotpurdy8132 3 года назад

@AK907dude

The vehicle’s mileage is stored in the instrument cluster, the DME and the LCM. If the mileage does not match between all three modules, then the tamper light will appear.

No I didn’t. But warning, my high beams and daylight running lights do not work as before. There are some vids on buying software for your laptop to reprogram the LCM to work for your optional headlights installed.

if you buy a used one like u did off ebay, do i need to get it coded, or just drive it?
@AK907dude
@AK907dude 3 года назад
You can just drive it like I am, BUT... my used one must have come from an X5 without XENON headlights, because now it uses my XENONs as daytime running lights and when I switch to hi beams it tries to use my low wattage daytime running lights. There are videos out there how to get the software and do your own coding but I have not tried that yet.

Great Video! I have a question for you about my X5 E53. My tailgate brake lights don't work (clear and red), but my release button and license plate lights do work. I'm inspecting the connectors (male and female) and I notice the harness only has two electric pins, but the tail lights have 3 pins. I looked at the same harness (2002 x5 e53) on ebay, and it only has two pins as well... Then I looked at the taillights, and all those have 3 pins too! So it seems like everything should be that way, but I just don't get why the female connector uses 3 pins and the male connector uses 2 pins. I was going to see if you could possibly check and see if your x5 tailgate lights are using a 2 pin connector that goes into a 3 pin as well. Thanks again for the videos! A+++++ Cheers!

@@AK907dude and thats the ones on the tailgate? Both my side taillights have 4 pin connectors. But my tailgate light assembly (the one with the reverse light on top) only has 3 pin connectors, and the harness has room for 3 pins, but only uses 2. Thanks for the fast reply!! I couldn't believe it when I got a notification from youtube lol. Cheers!
