So I’ve enabled auto high beams (with AlfaOBD), after installing the new mirror and the function works fine, however high beams on demand (pulling the stalk towards you) no log her does anything.. so with gaining auto high beam function, I’ve lost ability to flash high beams on demand… any idea on how to fix this?

I would guess there is a "flash to pass" setting that needs to be enabled

Same place you found the "auto high beams"

You know, that general "change configuration" area of the BCM


I would do a search in there for "pass", "beams", or "brights"

My 14 has auto high beams. You are in auto or not.

If you want to flash, you flip the turn signal stalk just like you normally would by pulling it towards you.

Can’t find anything… the only two lines I see is for enabling auto high beams… nothing else related.

That’s the problem. My 14 didn’t have the auto high beams, but as I’ve replaced the mirror, it now does and auto high beams do turn on, but I’ve lost the ability to flash on demand. Nothing happens anymore when I pull on the stalk, like you usually would.

Much more than changing the mirror is needed. Quite a few items to change / check with AlfaOBD for the Auto high beam.

Did you do / check the following?

ECU Qualification: Auto Headlights Present: YES
VehConfig 1: Auto High Beams: YES
VehConfig 3: Auto Headlamp Feature Present: YES
2014 CNC Config I/O & Feat: Auto High Beam Module Location: ECC AHBM
CBC Extern.Light Calibr.: Auto Headlamp On Threshold (0‐5 V): 3.314 V
CBC Extern.Light Calibr.:Auto Headlamp Off Threshold (0‐5 V): 2.549 V
Cust.Set.Menu 1:Auto High Beam CSM Present: Yes
Cust.Prog.Features:Auto High Beam: Enabled

Compare the original configuration image you captured (hopefully) to the current configuration using a file comparison utility, looking for unintended changes.
