Passenger Parking Light out, What to do?

I have a 2009 Z4, and recently the passenger side parking light/Angel eyes burnt out. After replacing it with a new bulb it still didn't work. I decided WTH, I'll just get a new headlight assembly, but after getting it installed today, the passenger side angel eyes still doesn't work and I am still getting the error message on the dash saying passenger parking light malfunction.

Does the angel eyes or headlight control module need to be coded again?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

After testing with a multimeter, we found that there was no power going to the Angel eyes, and the wiring went straight to the connector, so it couldn't have been the Adaptive headlight control module.

The conclusion was the FRM module. I was told after a certain amount of startups, the car shuts the circuit off if it keeps detecting a fault. It will need to be reset by a scan tool.

In the end, easy fix, hope this helps anyone else in the future with this issue.
