1997 BMW 840ci fog lights stay on

razimm · 11-24-2023, 09:40 AM

The fog lights on my 1997, E31, 840ci are always on, (even the dash indicator light) even with the ignition turned off. I also pulled the fuse and they stayed on. They are on eventhough the headlights are off. I finally disconnected the bulbs so as not to drain the battery. I think the problem may be with the Light Control Module (LKM) part number 61351383412. I can not find another module. Does anyone know of a source or some place that can diagnois and repair my module. Thanks for your help.
