How to install F1 Rain light || BMW M140i F20 || DIY Tutorial || Ali express
Quick DIY Tutorial on how to wire up and install a F1 Rainlight onto the diffuser of a BMW M140i / f20 / 1 series etc.
I purchased this from Ali express - tbh they're all the same so just search up for an F1 light on there. Just make sure you waterproof seal the edges.
Note: I ran out of solder. so only connected by twisting the wires and taped it up temporarily - off camera I went back and soldered the connections. You can either do the same, or use some T connector clips.

If we want to connect the yellow one, which wire does that connect to?
I'm in the process of doing it now, where do I connect the yellow wire as I want it to flash when I brake?

That’s what I wanna know myself
I've done exactly the same as you but I want the light to flash when breaking if that's possible?
Where would you connect the yellow if you wanted the light to pulsate?

hi, fitted mine today, a cartek static one to my f21, unsure if wired the live to brake light wire though, tried to black wire with grey stripe as advised first, didnt light up at all, so wired to grey wire with black stripe now it is lit up all the time when running, i want it to just come on when pressing brake pedal, can you advise on this please?

Mine is same ? Have you managed to fix it?
I’m the middle of fitting one where does yellow go
Where do you connect the yellow if you want it to flash
What did you use to create the gap in the coating of the wire
Bro are those 2 strips led build in to the tail lights or is it 1 or the bulb in the socket
Mine is always on? Any reason why?
does it work for 118i ?
does the flash keep flashing or does it stop after X amount of flashes?
Ouch, drilling your diffuser with a masonry drill bit? +1 for having the balls!

brake light is easy and convenient to install without refitting the circuit. Wiring: connect the yellow line to the brake strobe (+), the red line to the taillight or ACC(+), and the black line to the negative-).

Yes, you just have to connect the wires to your break light connectors

Hi! Top video thank you I installed the same light on my car, when I turn on the ignition without turning on the engine, it works Niquel, on the other hand as soon as I turn on the engine, it works during braking and then nothing... you don't know how I could fix this?

Corners as he said
U didn’t connect the wire very well.
This is nearly as tragic as 4D number plates!
Good video , can u help me do mine I’ll pay 🤣
You didn't show much of the finish product! I was expecting foot on and off the brake pedal numerous times and a night video shot! Disappointed!

If you watched the video, you'll know it wasn't connected to the brakes, so brake pedal on or off wouldn't have made a difference. But TY for the feedback 🙌🏼
