Light Error - Scan tool required

Hi Guys, please can you advise if anyone has a scan tool available for an E90 Lci. I have an error being a "yellow globe" on the dash but cannot figure out which light is throwing the error. I have physically inspected all lights ie: Tail, park, numberplate, brakes, rear & front fogs, angels, xenons, indicators, high level brake light and they are all working.
Some history - I have fitted a set of angel eyes and fogs from Mo in Feb'15. No issues with these lights and they still working fine. The issue is that it is a shlep to have them removed before sending the car to BMW or to test. If I have a ID Code, I would know exactly which globe it is and could replace accordingly.

Things I've tried -
I have put off all lights, including daytime driving lights and started the car but it still throws an error with no lights on. I did have my foot on the brake to start though.

I am in the Fourways or Midrand area

Thanks in advance

Hi, did you try to hold down the obc button on the error, it usually gives the code :coolShake:

Also check your brake-lights, the e90 has 2 bulbs per side, so it might seem as if the light is on if its only one bulb that is fused

Thanks Rayzor, you the man. Error was 136, left brake, checked the bulb and 1 of the 2 is shot. Will need to get a replacement globe and then check if the error goes away.
