BMW fault code 0005

Reading and clearing it
Fault code 0005 is a BMW code, stored in the car's headlight beam height control, not a generic OBD2 code (P0xxx): a generic OBD2 reader only reaches the engine's emissions faults, so it won't show it. AutoLingo for BMW reads it with BMW's own diagnostic protocols, in plain English, with the details the module stored about it, and clears it after a repair. If a fault comes right back after it's cleared, the problem is still there.
The headlight beam height control is on: 7 Series (E38), 5 Series (E39)
