programming replacement light?

My friend has a 2011 X5 35i and replaced a headlight with what I assume is the adaptive controller included. Now he has an error light, says “adaptive error failure”

The lights work but the one he replaced that has the new controller doesn’t turn like the driver side does when he turns the steering wheel. He has ISTA+ but we haven’t found how to access lighting in that program. We’ve checked under “chassis” and “body” but don’t see it. Any ideas?

Thanks! It ended up being that the replacement headlight didn’t include a new control unit, just a cover for it. He put the control unit from the old headlight on and now all is good!
