Please Help! Coding Issue!! LED Strip Gone

After coding using the cheat sheet r33 provided, I was able to get all the features listed in the sheet working. However, my interior LED lights are gone!!!! And both driver side and passenger side' interior FOOT LIGHTING are also gone! See pictures. I didn't touch any other module other than the modules listed in the sheet.

Now I'm desperate....could someone help me please....

for now, let the car sleep. then test tomorrow and go into lighting settings from the iDrive menu. what was the last thing you coded? that might help some coders here diagnose what you messed up or accidentally saved.

I used r33's cheat sheet link in the following:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...9s4/edit#gid=0

I coded almost everything except the HUD Turn Signal and the Seat Heating & Ventilating feature. I knew exactly how the procedure works:
1. Read the FA
2. read the ECU
3. Read Code for the SVT
4. Code the desire module by editing the FDL
5: Save the editing
6. Coding FDL

The last thing I coded was the last one, listed "DON'T KNOW". After that, I realized my interior LED Strips were all gone!! Then I decoded everything one at a time but the Led strips were still not coming up. Please help me...

Ambient lighting disappears whenever you code BDC. Allow the car to sleep. The module reinitializes the LED lamps on the car's bus during this process.

Again, thanks for the tips! Without this thread and your help, I can never get this coding done.
Love you guys! Especially for r33...for compilling everything using his own time to share this.
