Help Needed with multiple check control messages

Alrock31 · 06-27-2022, 04:49 PM

So I’m getting a few messages after starting the car but then it goes away after driving it for 20 minutes (turning it off then back on). Any help would be appreciated! It’s a 2014 M5 stock. Anyone had experience with this?

Scanned it. Anyone have an idea?

Have you done any work around the cable harnesses, had the DME's or ground wires off recently?

In March I took the car into the dealer for hpfp warranty

Yeah, I could see the DME(s) getting unplugged for something like that. There is a ground wire on each side that is absolutely vital that it be secured properly. But if any of the DME harnesses comes out or is loose things will go batshit crazy as well. That said I feel like something is getting shorted/pinched and being sent to ground when it shouldn't be.

I’ll double check everything in the morning. I wonder if it’s my battery too. I just seen the date on it and it’s a 2015 stamp. I appreciate your response!

Happy to lend my thoughts. These machines are very sensitive when it comes to power, much more than any other car I have owned.

Not sure how familiar you are with the area so I have attached a image I had in a pdf and marked it up.
