Search on Ignition Switch did not yield expected outcome, 901 threads with no relevance. Do you think you could point me to the thread?

My service adviser is not returning the call since Fri. Well he got me the loaner car. 328 stock car, but I want to find out what happened.

Would either Ignition Switch or Voltage Regulator failure should send error code? The guys says no code...

Troubleshooting past codes probably starts with checking connections and grounds. Unfortunately some are going to be very difficult to locate.

update "BUS" issues?
 

I just got off the phone with a service advisor. They haven't figured out how to fix it yet. He was taking about potential BUS issues. I have no idea what he was talking about. He said he opened up cases with BMW USA fro troubleshooting.
Well they have changed Alternator which didn't fix the problem.
Any idea what that might be?

Thanks got for the BMW dealer for getting me a loaner rental car, 328i, that took care of my daily drive for the last 6 days, but I could use the cold weather package for the weather like this, and I could totally go to the local mountain for snowboarding if I had 4 wheel drive now. Weather has been really odd recently.

Can't see how you can make that statement when the X5 is built in America.

:rofl:

LMAO

I got my x5 back after 8 days. They couldn't figure out what that was even after changing alternator. They unplugged everything and put it back and that fixed the problem.

2 days later I started the car and did the same thing, the airbag and seat belt lights on, blinking headlights and indoor lights as I started the car. But it stopped after while. Do you think I should take the car back to the stealer and try to claim lemon law?

I have complained about shutting for the last 6 month before the original warranty expired. They said it is simply alignment was off and need new tires. When I got them CPOed they put the new tires and supposedly taken care of the problem. Now they say I had warped front rotors that is not covered because it is a wear and tear. I was gonna do the job but they lower the price from $900 to $650 so I had them do it. (They say the job has 2 year and unlimited mile warranty.) Was the price pretty bad?
I am more upset that they didn't really do the job when I had the problem.
They claim that there's no written record of my complain...

I hope I won't have this this blinking problem again. But I am pretty nervous now. I am seeking advice. Thanks.
