DIY (How to) Interior - Ambient Light - Color change.

Russmov · 08-17-2019, 05:41 PM

I made a pink/purple and green as well. I love having all these new colours to choose from.

Violator · 08-17-2019, 05:48 PM

X7 has bronze as well. It’s nice, not to over the top.

I've successfully coded older version 3070 and new 3076 without any issues.

I was helping out a friend today and his 2015 X5 5.0 3070 did not have the different color options with BimmerCode. I tried to manually key in the values and it did not work.

Has anyone experienced this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

NYC_X5 · 08-18-2019, 09:23 PM

Just coded mine with the additional colors. At first was a PiTa since I couldn’t find the 3070 or 3076 folders in BimmerCode but a quick search for ensemble, brought up all the folders.

My friends car only has 3070, no 3076

Hmm ok I will take a look tomorrow at 3070 and see if I notice anything. If so I'll snap some screen shots for you.

Hey I didn't notice anything in 3070 that stood out to change. It had a few ambient lighting things, but they seemed more to do with the dome lights I think. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
Is your friends car just missing 3076 altogether or just nothing in it to change?

I'll have to look at it again to make sure, but I didn't see 3076 with the R G B. Much appreciated, I know you struggled with yours for a while. I thought I had both figured out.

My 3076 didn't have R G B either. It had the 255_——-numbers. I had to go into them and change the values inside.
I clicked up custom values and changed them to the numbers/letters I wanted.

Do you have a list of the custom values and the changed numbers/letters?

Also you can use this site to make any colour you want. I can't remember who posted it but it works well to give you the values you need.

hufington · 08-19-2019, 01:57 PM

Do you also have lilla and red?

I have a pinkish/purple I made for when my daughter comes(cheesy I know lol) and red.

Russmov · 08-19-2019, 02:06 PM

If you want the brightest of any colour it's FF
So for instance red would be

0xFF
0x00
0x00

This is just for one Level of LED(dash,mid or floor)

hufington · 08-19-2019, 02:28 PM

Thanks. I appreciate this. I will try this evening after work. I hope I can get rid of the piss yellow that I have somehow created while playing with everything.
