Self leveling

Hello,
I am getting the "self level inact " warning on the dash. The car is fine meaning it's not leaning on one side or low to the ground. Is there a way to test the sensors? I Am thinking one or both sensors are bad but before replacing them I would like to check them. Thanks in advance

You didn't, but I would hook up to DIS/GT1 and scan the module to see what codes it is throwing.

Sorry Ricky. Someone messed with my auto spell.

I don't have a scanner and probably should buy one. I was trying to do it the old fashion way

Sorry but you definitely need a scanner to read the codes. Talking with just beginner experience I purchased a cable with INPA and a hand held scanner for quick trouble shoot. It is not advised to just erase the codes and activate the system too.

Mine was giving an error , guided me for repairing the pump and now it works like magic

I hope the same for you too

Bought this one from amazon.
I hope it is not against the rules to give direct links. Also against many user comments I am using it on win7 64 bit comp.

KCRIUS(TM) K+D CAN USB Interface OBD2 Cable Diagnostic Scanner for BMW only

I hope it helps for your case
