Hey guys, does anybody know the solution to my problem?
I've screwing around with my new 2001 X5 today and I ended up draining the battery, so I recharged maybe for 10 minutes. I started it up with the charger still hooked up. Once the X5 started I went and unplugged the charger and disconected the -/+. I noticed that the orange "BRAKE" light, "ABS" light and the DSC light was all on. I let my X5 run for about 5 minutes before I shut it off. I let it sit for about 10 seconds than I turned it back on, and let it run for another 30 seconds or so, continuing that process about 5 times. I remember on my 97 528i this process cleared the codes for something. I do have an OBD II, but 0 codes came up. So anyway, they haven't gone away yet, what should I do? Is it a software problem like some say? Did I fry something when recharging the battery? WTF is it?
UPDATE****
Thank you, I did have to drive around the block and they did go off. I killed my battery again after this and again, I did have to charge it up and the same lights came on. They did go off again after driving it around the block... I guess this is a "normal" thing... Oh well, Im just glad everything is working. Thank you guys for the replys!!!
