Foot well module controls the lights. If you had bare wires touching inside the housing there's a good chance the module is bad

08 Mini S low beam
Sort of came to solution. Took to Mini Service to have diagnostics performed and they confirmed...need new Foot Module. They also found faults in Integrated Heating, Junction Box Electronics, Instrument Cluster, Dynamic Stability Control, DME/DDE, and Electronic Steering. Except for the low beam problem, I have not had any trouble with any of those functions. Does that mean programming of a new module will wipe out those faults or will they show up again and require service for each of the faults.
While researching the modules, I've read that a used (matching) module can be programmed to my 08 Mini and key...that I do not need a new module? I have also read that a new module is required. Which is correct. -
Welcome! Though I can not offer any insights to your specific issue.

I would not recommend a used module. If you want to try it just dont be supposed if it doesn't code to your vehicle. The faults in the other modules will disappear when the car is programmed. They may or may not come back over time depending on what they are.
