jmcaiado, do you know what pins on the MASK sends linelevel output.
Another Q is can I enable MP3-playback since I have an LCI car.

Regards

Ok, here's my problem, i justed installed new M5 rotors and calipers with new sensors,( m5 sensors) i know the stock senors fit the new calipers but i used the new sensors and bleed the brakes. So i'm driving fine, and then when i reset the brake service interval on the I Drive, the I drive now comes up with an error saying that my brakes are due for service and now the brake light is on. Any idea what it can be, my car is not a M5 it's a 545 and i replaced everything from factory, should i bleed the brakes one more time? Or maybe i should use the old senors? Thanks.

Ding...ding...ding! We have a winner!!

This thread really needs to die -- everyone that has a tech question should just do a search to see if it's been asked before and if it hasn't, start a thread that has a subject line that helps identify the question. This way, we can all help answer things and, in addition, the answer can be found much easier in the future by performing searches...

See if you blew a fuse... Its should be number 89 in the trunk...

Same fuse which controls the HomeLink

ok so i checked the fuse from the trunk and also so i took the splice connector and the fuse in the direct wire cord to radio shack and the said everything looked fine......what else could be wrong.....i checked the number 89 fuse in the trunk and it looked ok....i mean there wasn't any burn marks or any indication that it burned out.....can it be any other fuse???

I need help finding a switched 12v in the front of my european 545i. I cant use the cigarete lighter as it has no power going through it even though the fuse is not blown. Is there another switches 12v source?

Also, is there a wire to use for radio muting for a Nokia bluetooth carkit?

Cheers

Maybe a thread lock admins?....then again, it might be good fun to see who actually reads the forums, and who simply hail-Mary's questions without doing homework first...
