Ricky Bobby will become famous soon enough
I don't recognize that, did you run DIS scan to see what the errors read?

That was in BMW scanner 1.4. I did it before I left for L.A. and just got here. I just have my MACBOOK AIR so can't scan until I get home Monday.

I have no codes on the display. I scanned looking for the cause of a tailight error I got Thursday & Friday when leaving work but all were working and the warning was gone when I got home.

Thanks

rusty contacts... check for rust, oxidation on the brake, tail and turn signal lights on the rear quarters light assemblies... if not there, then we move further down the troubleshooting path...

ok..here is the question.
Are your xenons pointing down?I never knew mine were until I started replacing the level sensors and found out,that the front sensor's harness had 2 wires cut.After fixing that,my xenons started shooting higher and farther,also LCM faults never reappeared.

Lights are good. Rear air is good.

I had the "check brake lights" warning and a couple of times the Fast blinker...removed the bulbs sockets cleaned the contacts and never had any of those again.
