Door Handle and Puddle lights on when reversing

I had this coded on my F31 335d and it was very useful when reversing in poorly lit areas at night such as when visiting my family who live in the countryside. I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere for the G20 model. Anyone able to provide me with the relevant coding that can be done via Bimmercode?

I haven't tried on g20 but on previous platforms this worked:

Module: FEM_BODY
Section: 3070
Function: OVT_BEI_RUECKFAHRLICHT
Value: aktiv
Default: nicht_aktiv
Door handle LEDs light up when engaged in Reverse

I looked just now and can't find that entry in expert mode with bimmer code.

I think it might be module FEM_01 (Front Electric Module)

It's as above in expert, but also in basic mode, about half way down the list.

I don't remember seeing an FEM module in the G chassis car. But I could be wrong. Let us know how it goes.

I remember discussions on this previously and we were told that is was not possible on the G20.

I too would have loved to have had this enabled, so if anyone ever cracks this, I would definitely be enabling.

I emailed Bimmercode and the reply states it not possible on the G20 models. Shame.

Ah well ..... I thought the answer from Bimmercode was definitive..... but if anyone knows better and can come back with the coding it would be great.......???????

Yes, the coordinates you mentioned are applied to the F body, so it becomes active, but the G body does not have the same coordinates, and I tried to change several similar coordinates, but the door catch was not activated when reversing.
