I have a 2007 550I that was driving fine. I took her out, gassed up and came home. The next morning she wouldn't start. When start button is pushed the power comes on but nothing from the engine. When start button is pushed it seems every malfunction message such as, transmission malfunction, dynamic drive, passenger restraint system, steering wheel lock and I'm sure there are others that I can't remember. Also I connected a scanner to ODB2 and it won't connect to the car. Please help.

Try unplugging the little blue connector in your trunk. It should be a wire coming off the negative terminal on the battery.
if it starts after that is unplugged then your IBS is bad.
Its worth a shot.

Yes I was going to say check that too but only after he verifies the battery voltage under load.

Do you have a charger? Charge the battery fully and then disconnect the IBS like the other member suggested. You'll see the long covered wire coming off of the IBS on the negative terminal.
