No EM light

[daveking]

Hi
I have just noticed my Engine management light does not
come on when i turn on ignition.

I remeber way back when my son's E46 had the same problem.
Found out some bm's in the uk did not have them wired in.

Mine is a 2003 e53.
if i shine a torch at it you can see its there.
I have read its a on board led.

Also all the bulbs in the bottom of the clocks were missing.

I am thinking did someone tape over the led to sell the 53 and remove
the bulbs so i could not see errors.
I am hoping someone reply's their's is the same.

Thank you all.

I bet it is disabled in some way to hide a problem or two. One guy who was on the board a long time ago found the LED removed when he pulled the cluster. He replaced it and then the fun really began.
