pole, Are you share your car is going to sleep? Is the orange light next to the gear selector going out within 1 hour of your closing the car up? The light going out is your confirmation the car has gone to sleep.

Here are several BMW after sales training documents on the e60 Voltage Supply and Bus System, 5Series Bus System Overview and e60 General Vehicle Electrical System.

Here: https://www.newtis.info is EVERYTHING for your BMW, every wiring diagram, every repair manual. I do know for sure the procedure is there also, because I checked it a few weeks ago (and found it easily) but I'm lost today.

Look for your car of course.
