I picked up a E36 328 Coupe on Friday, drove the 30 Miles back with no issues, Give it a clean over the weekend (as it hadn't had one for the last six months)
Just started it up now and the brake pad warning light, ABS & ACS warning lights are all staying on....
I've quickly checked the pads, brake fluid and fuse and all are fine...
Any other idea's?

I had a e38 which forever said my pads were low, and my brakelights were out, oil was low,
All were fine. May be just the computer going a bid senile

Have a look for water in the passenger foot well/maybe driver foot well - under the carpets.
Think there maybe an ECU under there, could have got damp.

E36s love lighting up all their warning lights. A mate of mine had one, and most of his warning lights were on all the time.

ABS brain is in one of the footwells, and ECU is in the scuttle usually (well was on mine) so I would check for flooding from when you cleaned it... Thick old sound deadening in these and can hold a heck of a lot of water if your door shuts leak! May be able to get your CEL to throw out fault codes if yours is an older model to check if there is a real fault or not? |

Try here www.endtuning.com/bmwcodes.htmlThink I saw some advice on his site about re-setting the codes. Sorry in advance if I'm wrong, it may have been elsewhere! |
