How do you reinitialize ambient lighting with bimmercode?

I just installed a new dash console that obviously has a new ambient lighting LED strip in it. After install it doesn't come on with the rest of the ambient strips so I was wondering if there's a way to reinitialize the ambient lighting system with bimmercode so I don't have to take it to the stealership

Sadly, no... You'd need ISTA to autoaddress all the LED modules again. But perhaps someone here can do a remote session for you.

Where did you get yours from? I was hoping the ones I found on AliExpress were plug and play and required no coding. I added the sunroof and center console ambient lights, they didn’t require any coding.
