Undocumented Firmware / UI Anomaly
BMW Wallbox LED ring or status lights are flashing in an unusual pattern with no documented error code

Possible Causes
Firmware glitch after update, Partial configuration change, LED driver fault on control board, Power quality disturbances
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No high-voltage work is required for this step.
- Consult manual and app: Compare the LED pattern with the latest BMW Wallbox manual and check the app for any logged errors.
- Power-cycle: Turn the breaker OFF for 2–5 minutes, then ON, and observe if the pattern returns to normal.
- Firmware check: Ensure the Wallbox firmware is up to date via the BMW app or portal.
If the unusual LED behavior persists but charging works normally, it may be a minor UI issue. If charging is affected or LEDs are completely non-functional, the LED driver or control board may need replacement by a BMW service partner.
