BMW e63/e64 6 Series Automatic Headlight System Malfunction

Having an issue with the automatic headlights in your e63 or e64 6 series BMW? We can help! Our BMW mechanics in Jacksonville specialize in repairs at affordable prices.

Since they were first introduced, daytime headlights are a life-saving safety feature for vehicles of all makes and models. When BMW integrated automatic headlights into many of their vehicles, they took this a step further. Distributed from 2004-2011 in the USA, the BMW e63/364 six-series was equipped with automatic headlights that react to changes in sunlight, like driving through a parking garage or a tunnel. Owners have reported some problems with the automatic headlights, in which they don’t go off when they exit a tunnel or parking garage.

Automatic headlights assist drivers in a lot of ways. The most obvious is that it helps illuminate the road ahead, but automatic headlights also remove a distraction for the driver, as he or she doesn’t have to feel around for the switch when they enter a tunnel or when it starts raining. Secondly, it helps on-coming drivers see the vehicle when the sun is at your back. Many crashes are caused at dusk when drivers are blinded by the setting sun. A couple bright headlights can help break through that beautiful, but dangerous silhouette.

The BMW six-series is known for battery issues, which also causes other problems throughout the vehicle. Issues with the automatic headlights are one such issue. Additionally, this problem can be caused by a miscommunication between the rain sensor and the headlight module.
