BMW No Crank No Start? Fix IBS Sensor Fault

Learn essential techniques to revive your stalled BMW and gain valuable insights into managing your BMW Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS). The BMW IBS plays a crucial role in vehicle starting, and malfunctions can lead to a no-start situation.

The IBS serves as a mechatronic component responsible for monitoring battery status, securely affixed to the battery's negative terminal. Its power supply is independently sourced, while data transmission to the DME or DDE is facilitated via the BSD.

Experiencing a BMW no-crank, no-start scenario? Discover the necessary BMW repair procedures for your Intelligent Battery Sensor to resolve the issue effectively.

▶️ Common reasons for why your BMW won't start, and there are no clicking noises:
• A starting motor that has failed
• The battery and starter motor have a faulty connection.
• Between the battery and the starter, there is a blown fuse.
• A battery that has been discharged or has failed.
• A malfunctioning system component, such as a relay or safety switch.
• Corroded electrical connections, such as corroded battery terminals, may prevent electrical current from reaching the starter motor.

OMG man, Thank you from the bottom of my heart it was the IBS Sensor in my case, my dad was stuck in the Ukrainian border when this happened you video just saved our life, i called him right after i was done watching your video, and 5 mins later he called back and said "damn it son u found the solution". so i cannot thank you enough man. Thumbs up

[YaMama]

This video is great. Very clear and detailed. Thank you.

Good morning. Thank you for your video, quite informative, and so much better than having to go to the stealership for a simple fix. One thing that it not mentioned here, or anywhere else that I could find, is that when we go into the front fuse
box in an X5-E70, and we unscrew the little green thingy to pull it down, we sometimes have to really force it down to get to those tiny upper fuses, which results in stretching the main (red) wire that comes from the battery. I had this happen yesterday and this morning, after thinking about it a bit, went and jiggled that wire, "pushed" it upwards and back into place and the beast's lights came on, all the whirring sounds came back, and it started up like a charm.Maybe a temporary fix, but it works, costs nothing, and easy to redo if needed until a more permanent fix is done.

Thanks a bunch for the information. I’m having a similar issue. I have full power to solenoid but no power going to the small copper braided cord to the starter when I push the start button? I’ve checked the starter relay is good, ground cable is solid. I’m not sure what else I should check. Thanks for the helpful information.

[hamzamasri]

Great video brotha. You covered everything well

[ahmedalkerraz]

Thank you for this video. However, what if I disconnect ONLY the "Data Wire" that goes up? Am asking because I bought a 2004 530i that a month later started having issues starting up, and now my battery keeps dying. When I checked, I found the "Data wire" disconnected only! I will check that little white box under the spare tire. Thanks.

[ridermc]

Thank you, very informative! My E70 didn't start yesterday. Never heard of the IBS sensor before. Been researching all day today. I will try it with your video.

[eliteshooters]

great videos!
I tested the starter and I had power at the starter. Do I replace the starter or is there something else in line to look at? Car doesn’t not crank but I hear fuel pump engage.

[mr.selfdestruct]

So to check the starter you put the long screw driver on the postive post of the starter and with you test light or multimeter you ground it to the chassis and then touch the screwdriver right? And I the light should illuminate or the if I use the multimeter I should get 12 volts reading . Correct?

[safaajadou]

Thank you so much, I removed the IBS cable and the car start normally again, thank a lot you just made my day!

[espperre]

Great video. Question on the last portion regarding the BST. Are you saying take a super long jumper cable and connect the positive terminal in the engine bay to the positive terminal of the (same) car’s own battery in the trunk?

Any risk/dangers with this? Because I may try this to start my car. A regular jump with another car or battery pack isn’t working. So I suspect it’s either the BST or IBS. But I want to trt this before I mess with the other two.

Cheers.

[alishahidi]

Thank you, I have built an accident and for 3 months I have been looking for the solution, now I order the positive cable and try it.
I'll let you know when I'm done.

[davidbanks]

Thank you for all of these tips!!! Very insightful!

[isaidspaghetti]

Really Nice video, thank you for taking time to get the shot of to starter, and fast forwarding stuff! very nice

[gail]

hi thanks for your videos..i have a 2008 328i sedan..do i have a fusebox like that in my 2008 328i sedan above the battery (as in your video)?? I dont see one.

[justinlawler]

Awesome video, thanks for never wasting a moment and the sound advise.

[UFallinggator]

Good video...not so great title. I was expecting to watch about 10 seconds of video, and then bail. It turned out that you had a lot of good info on a lot of different and important topics. Lots of quality little tips and tricks for this car.

[GhostofCTC]

Thanks for doing this video! This might just solve my problems.

[georgemurrieta]

I have 2001 330i does this model have an IBS it does have one on the positive battery terminal

[jraranda]

Ok so what using the jumper cable do or prove? Cause my car wasn't starting and made click noise wouldn't start. Once I tried using the cable from the battery directly to the positive terminal under the hood it started. So what does that mean?
