Haha I wish! Well where to start... The body shop royally screwed up ordering and installing parts on this thing. They installed parts for 2006 model, not a 2008.
Have now replaced all AFL control modules on both lamps (ballast control x2, AFL control x2 and the other AFL control module on LH upper radiator support in front of battery. Was still having problems getting the AFL to calibrate. Would ping just fine on BUS but would lockup during calibration. Not able to manually adjust L&R or up and down at all with Tech 2. Flash to pass and high beams inop but indicated okay on MIU. After another 3 hours of searching and scratching head, checked the PN on the front wiring harness they installed, WRONG. They installed front harness for "Xeon" but in EPC there is a listing for the harness which has "AFL". Will give the benefit that it does not list "Xeon AFL" just AFL.
Anyway I am now waiting on the replacement front wiring harness to install, have it VOR order but is back ordered of course. I also have a second new ACM here in the box but decided to NOT install it until I have all this AFL stuff figured out. Perhaps the AFL fault is messing with the ACM programming to the vehicle not sure.
It is quite odd, I cannot clear DTCs from the old ACM at all, it just locks up and says the 20 DTCs cannot be cleared. With the new ACM, it appears on BUS and pings properly but does not show being read when scanning vehicle for DTC info. Currently the MIU has the airbag lamp on, but no DTC info coming up for ACM. Strange.
Want to address every other DTC in vehicle before plugging the new x2 ACM in for the first time....and here we wait for parts...
If your installing a used ACM it should work as long as it is not loaded with the self programming firmware the new modules have now. Heck, would be worth a shot for diag on yours.
