We went out to eat tonight and my daughter got in the back passenger seat. My wife was in the front passenger seat. My daughter asked my wife to move up for more leg room...after hearing what you said about moving the seat to look for connections and crimped wires...I went outside to my BMW 5351 2011 and simply moved the seat back...the light immediately went off...thanks for the tip that fixed!!!

I’ve had the same issues with my car. This was one out of a couple alerts that were going off in my 2007 E60. The problem I experienced was a leaky oil filter housing gasket, and that led to oil leaking into the alternator and causing everything to go haywire. I had the alternator and gasket replaced and the car hasn’t thrown that alert yet. You may wanna check the status of your alternator, takes literally 30 seconds at any autozone for free.

Great video, this has been an ongoing problem with BMW. I have a 2018 530e with the exact same problem. I'm going to check the auxiliary battery and the connections to the battery.

I thought you fucking fixed it. I watch that video for fucking nothing

[inarigains]

I got something that might help you bro. One word, moisture. If all of your plates are working fine, and it looks like it does, it's probably trapped moisture tripping up the sensors.

My light came on last night. I will definitely try the suggestions you made before scheduling appointment with BMW. Thanks

This just popped up on my 545i yesterday frustrating, thanks for the info man

Same problem with my 2006 5 series. Solution: scanner (C Reader 310 +, programmed for BMW, $55 Amazon) showed low voltage to module that supports SRS functions. Made sense to me due to lack of daily driving during pandemic (I’m retired). I took car for 1 hour drive to re-charge battery, then successfully deleted the error code. Now, if the car sits for 4-5 days, the error code may return. I have also put battery on a trickle charger to eliminate the issue. If your daughter’s 530i is driven daily, maybe check the alternator or it may be a parasitic draw thing. If it’s something else, your right - big $.

Thanks for the video . i have the same problem I disconnected the battery now I have not power in the windows . Now I have 2 problems bmw man lolz

Had same error, but with E9X series. Problem was the one of wire connectors on battety terminal (thing thats puts on top of battery, next to possitive cabble). When you screw metal bracket on top of that terminal it somehow presses the connector or move one of the wires and connection between them are lost, at the same time restraint error came out. Check if wire connectors are not broken, if so try to replace them. The only working solution to remove faulty codes are with diagnostic programm (ISTA+).

You just wasted 4 min and 21 seconds of my life.

if you have warranty, repairs should be covered, and you can actually lemon the car once they have tried to fix it at least 3 times. I work at a law offices of Isaac Kohen, a lemon law firm that serves all of CA. I do this all day. I enjoyed watching this video very much, though!

[JohnPlatenak]

GREAT VIDEO! Very clear and well paced.

[paulschena]

This was very helpful.
Thank you brother

[tonykari]

Thanks 4 the great video. Respect. I wonder if it's the same in my 750li. I'm gonna try it out right now. Thanks again Scotty Pippen

Your problem is the airbag module located upon the passenger seat I think that's what it was when you unhook

[michaelguilas]

What is the video for if your system didn’t work?

[tznutz]

Instead of counting to find which fuse is what and where, just look at the slot closely and voila, the tray is marked.

[HAGA]

What does this fault actually mean? Are airbags and safety compromised?

[Tooniceur]

Water is getting inside the car you have a moisture problem use a pace heater to dry it out also try to fix the water problem
