before doing the module, check the speed sensors - they "report" to the ABS module plug, and the pinout is somewhere on this forum... there are four sensors, one at each corners, each one is responsible for a certain function but all come to that plug... you will need a multimeter with the ability to test diodes, as those sensors are "hall effect" diodes... worst case scenario, you can use an OhmMeter - do you know how to test a diode with an OhmMeter? best case scenario, if you have an O-scope, and can turn a wheel - then you can see the square wave from the sensor...

If a wheel speed sensor was possible, it should have set a wheel speed sensor fault code.
I would try the hard reset at the battery. It is worth a try. |

I had the same fault ..5foc. Read the ecm with INPA and it was a yaw sensor that was at fault thats located under the rear cupholders. Try to use INPa and see what you get..i almost bought the abs module as well until i decided to reread the code w/ another scanner.

Twins, is that the only error you get on the dash? Does it clear on startup, and then come back?
According to this, if it was a speed sensor, you would get the specific error. http://www.xoutpost.com/bmw-sav-foru...ht-lit-up.html The code really means DSC internal. I don't think you can get any more accurate than that. But JCM3 might be on to something. Same year X, so maybe.

Xoutpost is so valuable. I did think about those rotation/acceleration sensors maybe were going bad and maybe that's related to the SLS inacive message too. One of the EHC messages is "Can bus message incorrect". So, maybe the EHC knows there's a problem with DSC via that sensor. At the same time, I saw that sensor under the console in the BMW docs and was hoping NOT to hear what you're saying because I heard the console is a bitch to remove. LOL! |

Yeah, I'll look do some more research and try to find out more about those sensors JCM3 is talking about. When I looked more into getting the DSC/ABS module rebuilt, the messages were more ABS related. They would get the ABS light or a related ABS fault - I have none of those. So .... |

First thing I though when I saw this was the shitty plastic gear in the Transfer Case actuator. But I got way more lights, and the self level error. Flipped the gear, been fine since.

For now, rotational sensor and/or DSC/ABS module are front runners. |
