Hi everyone - my first thread here as I find myself the owner of a 7-series that has developed a case of the electrical flu!
I wonder if anyone can assist - before I am forced to visit the stealership for help.
1. iDrive not always working... normally after the car is 'warmed up' and ignition is turned off for a while... when I return the to car the central screen is black and there is no stereo or any warning tones from the backup sensors. The digital dash is still working fine though. Sometimes, after driving for a short distance the iDrive 'wakes up' and starts working fine.
2. Reverse camera doesn't work! There is a grey box on the centre display however the proximity sensors work and show the colours fine... sound is also coming as objects come closer
3. "Boot Open' warning is on dash... even though the boot seems closed. In addition, pressing the boot open button only opens it a little and you have to press it again. Also from the keyfob you have to mash the key a bunch of times for the boot to lift. Pressing the button to close it seems to work fine... however, it might not sit 100% flush. The car has soft close doors all around so I don't know is this is part of the problem with the boot?
Do you think it's just a fuse? When I looked in the boot fuse panel they all seemed fine (I was suprised how many fuses were there though)
I have not looked at the other fuse panel behind the glove box
any help would be most appreciated!
THANK YOU!
