I'm not sure if it will work out... This time now it works fine.. But next week? Who knows. All i did was hit it with a hammer and now it starts every time.

It probably won't start at the most important time when i need it >.<

Did you swap urs? If yes, new one or used one?

This is just something i came over for EWS error.. Maybe it could be worth to try.

1. Select the engine
2. Choose the model of the engine.
3`` activate ``
4`` select `` ews
5`` select `` reset in progress click ok
6. return to the main menu, ie, back, back, back, close the INPA Turn the ignition off remove the obd connector, turn the Ignition and the car should start ) (IMPORTANT! To do it in exactly in this order and i did not disable the ignition or not obd earlier than I described because EWS does not reset)

And for the "614A motor position angle not initialised" will be reset automaticly when you fire up ur car. It's active steering angle that's get fked up when batterie is out. I had this error a 1000times during my tries to get my own car going.

As soon as ur car fires up, you will still have the error present. All u need to do is restart the car so active steering can re-initialize the angle. The same goes for "CE99".

Yes I had mine replaced. It was dead. It was refurb from the local BMW dealer.

If transmission error came up by the time the battery was disconnected i do not think there is an actual problem with it. As explained.. The car throws a number of error codes when disconnection the battery, same thing with an old battery. That's why active steering also comes up.

When i disconnected my battery, i recieved active steering, ABS, airbag. I have the manual gearbox so that's why i didn't got the transmission error like you did. All i did was a restart of the car. And all the errors gone.

You need to restart the car. Did you try to hit the starter motor easily with a hammer? Someone should try to start the car during the hammering.
