I am hoping this is a individual Fuse! My Driver's Side Window Switch Eluminating Light for the Switch that operates the Driver's Side Window (F-B) are not Eluminating-Lit-up)

Now the Passenger Window Switch on the Driver-side lights find just like the Passenger side Switch for the passenger window.

Thought I would shoot this to the group!

While I am on the Light-Fuse subject. My Trunk lid light does not come-on anymore when the Trunk is Fully open. Now it will come-on when the Trunk Lid is almost Close. Go figure!

Thanks,

Does the switch itself work? If so, it sounds like the bulb.

Sounds like a possible broken wire in the left side body-to-trunk lid wiring loom as it passes thru the flexible plastic tubing. Pull back and splice the broken wires. Chances are you will find more than one either broken or cracked.

Ahmed303,

The Window Switch works find! The Eluminating Light just does not work!

Cool! I will check that!

Once again Thanks,

Right side body-to-trunk!

Also on First Issue (Window Switch - Not Eluminating)

Ahmed303 or Someone,

Switch works find, so it's a bulb! Will Auto Zone/O Reilly's/Pep Boys carry this type and how to remove without the Switch being damaged!

Thanks

Oops! Sorry. I was visualizing standing in front of the car.

So did it solve the trunk light issue?

The bulb replacement is a little tricky. You can get the 12V grain of wheat bulbs from a local hobby shop or Radio shack. They are 1.5V instead of BMW 1.2V. So they will look a little brighter. The tricky part is to unsolder the old bulb and resolder the new. If you are good with a solder iron it will cost you about $1.00 and good idea of repairs by disassembling. BMW does not sell this but they will sell you a new switch for about $40.00.

Yep! There were two wires broken! I fix both issues (Trunk Light & Driver's side - Driver's Window Switch) by splices the wires & reconnecting.

Ahmed303, most appreciated! When you are in Dallas, I owe you Dinner!

Now on to other issues!

No bulb replacement needed!
