Hei.

Har kopiert følgende fra www.xoutpost.com Et glimrende forum for alle med X5.

Håper du får noen tips på hva som kan være galt fra den..

Just like khmer_x5, I'm having the same problem (DSC/ABS/Brake lights all lit in yellow). Although, on top of those lights going on, the PDC light also stays on and the speedometer doesn't work.

I brought it to my local dealer and after the initial check they want to do further diagnosis on the DSC module as they suspect that to be the problem. They said that it will take another 4 hours to do the further diagnostic at $140 an hour because it supposedly "involves taking the bumper off." Sounds odd and plain BS to me! They said they couldn't do it until this coming Tuesday, so I thought I'd drive the car home anyway (since the problem for now seems intermittent) and search more about the problem on here.

Anyway, after my searches on the forum, I emailed the SA at Santa Monica BMW the following. No response from them yet (and they're open today), but anybody have any other insight on the problem or solutions other than these?...

*** FYI - Since leaving the dealer yesterday (1/2) all warning lights have not lit up. Since it seems to be an intermittent problem for now, I'm now wondering when the next time the cluster lights up like a Christmas tree again...

---------------------

The issue:

***The DSC, ABS and brake light randomly come on and the speedometer and gas gauge stop working.***

Possible Quick fixes:

*** "Turn the key On. Do not start and leave on for 3 min. Then Turn it off. It will reset the lights."

*** "Start car. Turn wheel all the left. Then all the way right and all the way to the left again and they should reset. (or it may be right then left. Try both combos. One should work."

Possible Problem #1: Steering angle sensor

Solution #1:

"ABS, DSC, brake light thing is most likely a bad sensor. Probably the steering angle sensor. Again relatively inexpensive..."

Solution #2:

"I just had mine sorted. These 3 lights came on only when I drove at speed on the motorways.

It was the steering angle sensor. Got a BMW specailist to plug his computer to it and reset the configuration and it has solved the issue."

Possible Problem #2: ABS sensor

Solution:

"I had the DSC / ABS / brake light come on. It turned out to be a faulty ABS sensor.

The part is about $125 and an hour or so of labor to replace."

Possible Problem #3: DSC Module

Maybe I need to get the whole DSC unit/module replaced like Michelle--- the pricier fix of the the two other possible problems noted above.

Hmmmm???? I've just never had peace of mind or never been comfortable working with dealers directly after my warranty expired. I miss my retired independent mechanic. He was great but he unfortunately retired and closed shop.

Additional Note: As far as I know, yellow brake light + ABS light means wheel (ABS) sensor. Red brake light means change brake pads.

nuh er problemet kommet tilbake og jeg målte motstand i abs sensorer til: begge foran var 159,3 v 200k

høyre bak var 53,8 v 200k

venstre bak var 0,1 v 200k

så regner med at venstre abs sensor har gått til dundas kjøper ny i morgen nuh og nu kontakt i tillegg .. så får vi se

Kryss på finger at det ikke er ABS styreenhet.
