4 Reasons Why BMW Passenger Restraint System Malfunction. July 20, 2022 by Eric Williams. A water leak, low battery voltage, and airbag and seat sensors malfunctioning could cause the passenger safety system malfunction warning to appear on the dashboard. The airbag system is a critical system devoted to passenger safety so do not ignore the
On newer BMW models, the hood latches have a small micro switch, which can be damaged or unplugged. Use a 10mm socket to remove the two bolts holding the hood switch. Carefully pull the hood latch out and check the connector is not loose or unplugged. Ensure that the hood release cable is installed correctly, or you cannot open the hood.
Garage List. 2006 BMW 330i [0.00] Water Pump constantly running N55 F16 2015. Heya, 2015 F16, BM3, upgraded charge pipe. Did have to open up the DME for a bench unlock.

Every time when I drive over 35-40 mph I get Chassis Stabilization Malfunction, drive moderately (etc) message followed by Parking Brake Limited message and Yellow DSC, Park ( (P)), 4x4, ABS lights + RED Brake warning light.
