'98 E39 dash copmuter problems and Throttle actuator
recently purchased my 3rd 5 series and here are the issues... the temp gage reads -40 so in research I found the outside temp sensor but the unit is missing.. It had the front bumper replaced so I assume its gone.. the problem i need help with is
Trip computer doesnt work
gas mileage tracker doesnt work
time doesnt work
And i found a broken throttle actuator cable..
Can I drive the car with out this unit working.. i Think this is making my traction control light come on as well.. also my check engine light came on..
