f36 tail light coding

hey do i was trying make my tali light LED operate as my turning signal vs the bulb that comes stock.

Please follow these Steps very carefully:
1. PlugIn your OBD reader and connect Bimmercode
2. Go to REM (Rear Electronic Module)
3. Go to EXPERT MODE - Click Continue on the warning message
4. In Search field - type in MAPPING

You should see all the Mapping configs now. Now this is where you will do your coding. Follow the step-by-step coding from below. Change the config/values for each of these settings.

MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H2_L_OUTPUT - sl_2_l
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H2_L_FUNCTION - Value 0x06
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H2_L_PRIORITY - Priority 1

MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H2_R_OUTPUT - sl_2_r
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H2_R_FUNCTION - Value 0x07
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H2_R_PRIORITY - Priority 1
--
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H_L_OUTPUT - sl_l
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H_L_FUNCTION - Value 0x06
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H_L_PRIORITY - Priority 1

MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H_R_OUTPUT - sl-r
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H_R_FUNCTION - Value 0x07
MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_H_R_PRIORITY - Priority 1
--
MAPPING_STANDL_H1_L_PRIORITY - Priority 3
MAPPING_STANDL_H1_R_PRIORITY - Priority 3
--
MAPPING_STANDL_H2_L_PRIORITY - Priority 4
MAPPING_STANDL_H2_R_PRIORITY - Priority 4
--
If you also want to disable the orange signal light and only use rear lights for signal, complete the following. if you still want that ugly orange signal light to be in use.. Do NOT change the below values:
MAPPING_BLINKER_H_L_PWM_LEVEL_1 - 00
MAPPING_BLINKER_H_L_PWM_LEVEL_r - 00

someone with a f30 did it.

i tried to follow the steps but i noticed one difference


instead of TAGFAHRL_H2_L MINE reads TAGFAHRL_V_L.

Is mine showing a V because it’s a f36? instead of H2?

No, something doesn't match up.
F30 REM ECU files should be the same as a F36.

Search again.

There are some differences between F30 and F32 REM values, at least on the LCI models. I ran into them when trying to code rear fog lights.

They are identical in the inside, for the functions etc.
Yet a F2x values are indeed different than a F3x.

Glad you found it.

Any idea on getting reverse lights working again using ista+, coding out the errors ? Using diagnostics in ista+ I can turn them on but when setting car in reverse no reverse lights.
