Hi so I have a 2006 E60 525xi. It's got a few thing wrong and I'm trying to figure it out. I got it and both power seats and steering adjustments don't work. heated steering works. I've checked the fuses and replaced some even though they weren't bad. I've also checked the module to control the seat and replaced it with a working one still not luck. It's weird that it's both seat but I'm stumped any ideas? Thanks.

Ok so I went in the trunk and was going to disconnect the battery and do a reset and noticed that a fuse was missing. It was the seat occupancy sensor was missing. put a new one in and everything works. Didn't think the fuses in the rear were missing. thanks for your help Bartvzessen. Hopefully this helps someone else in the forum.

Unfortunately, it has the airbag error before i even found the fuse. no codes show up but I think I'm going to get the bts bypass from ebay to see if that fixes it.

Nothing shows for airbag or seat. I wasn't sure if the reader just needs to be BMW specific. I was thinking of getting a carly, INPA or another one for BMW only.
