1997 740iL (~140K miles) All of a sudden the airbag light turned. Is this a common problem? What makes it turn on? I didn't change/fix anything in the car before this turned on.
I took the car to a shop, and they discovered a bigger problem. The computer doesn't communicate with their scanner. There are two places where they can plug in the scanner. One inside the car which works fine, but it is limited and doesn't show all the problems. The other that is under the hood doesn't respond to the scanner. Any idea why???
I would love to hear your suggestions/answers/comments.
BTW, sorry for posting questions regarding a 7-series bimmer in the 5-series section. I am just used to this area and can't wait to fix this car, sell it and get back to a 5er...
