Air conditioning and electronics problems in a BMW X3

I have a 2005 BMW X3 with a diesel engine and 425,000 km on the odometer. The air conditioning system doesn't turn on, and an airbag warning light is constantly illuminated. Because of this, the air conditioning, turn signals, radio, and the route planner's flip-down screen aren't working. Does anyone know what the cause of this might be?

A 2005 BMW X3 is experiencing multiple electronic issues, including a non-functional air conditioning system, an illuminated airbag warning light, and inoperative turn signals, radio, and display screen. The potential causes could be blown fuses or inadequate power supply from the battery or alternator. Suggested solutions include checking and replacing any blown fuses and ensuring the battery and alternator are functioning properly.

Check the fuses related to the air conditioning, turn signals, radio, and display screen first, as a blown fuse could cause these issues. If the fuses are intact, inspect the battery and alternator to ensure they are providing adequate power. Let me know if you need further assistance or if the issue persists.

I checked all the fuses and they are fine. The battery and alternator are also okay. The BMW appears to be eligible for the steering airbag recall. A new one will be installed next Monday. Could that be the problem?

It's possible that the airbag system issue is affecting other electrical components. Once the airbag recall work is completed, see if the other issues resolve. If not, there might be a problem with the vehicle's electrical system or a control module. Keep me updated on the progress after the recall service, and let me know if you have any further questions.
