[@NetoGod]

[@1o11o11]

How you understand taht prob;em was in isolation and in this cable ?

[@FocaJDM]

Well my bmw was having same error but was a relay under the glove box area i took it to the dealer and charge $700 dollar for labor and finding the problem for a $30 dollar relay

[@FRANKSANTANADOM]

What is the relay...

[@FirstLast-ib1ox]

​@@FRANKSANTANADOMif you have a rex, the fuel pump relay can give drivetrain fault (may have been the relay they are referring to)

[@mnztr1]

I don't see why U need to take of both 12v battery cables. If you disco the ground and wrap the ground the batt is offline.

[@mnztr1]

So did you charge at one of those new > the 50 KWH chargers and it sent too much power and blew the cable?

[@paradisekeko555]

Hi brother, is with fault u cant also charging your battery via charging port?

[@TheCheesenChips]

I seem to have the same issue, which error codes did it flag up?

[@podlaskiebiurowywiadudetek3406]

how to unlock battery after accident ?

[@FRANKSANTANADOM]

Hi one question.. When you get the fault code the rex stilll work? Me cable arrived tomorrow.. But me rex stop working some time last

[@obhaiti7238]

Yes it will

[@pokemonaddict3d20]

so because they updated the system our cables blew and they won't even deem it a recall....crooks...this is the same thing wrong with my car

[@joelmendoza9786]

Wow my system was update now I’m having this issue.

[@FRANKSANTANADOM]

hi where do you buy ..loking same but cant find any help thanks

[@obhaiti7238]

Hi. I purchased the cable directly from the BMW dealer near me. You can probably get it delivered. Try getbmwparts.com

[@joelmendoza9786]

What issue was the car giving you? Was it the drivetrain malfunction, electric drive only?

[@obhaiti7238]

No issues other than the check engine light and the message displayed at the beginning of the video.

@@obhaiti7238 How did you figure out it was the cable though? Did your obd scanner say the cable was the cause of the error?
