Problems with ABS/DSC system and power steering in the 2014 BMW 4 Series

Hi everyone, I have a problem with my 2014 BMW 4 Series, gasoline engine. The ABS/DSC system is not working, the power steering is not working and the steering wheel is vibrating/shaking. I suspect it could be the steering angle sensor. Has anyone ever had a similar case and can provide troubleshooting tips? In particular, it would be interesting to know how the problem was solved in the workshop and what experience you have had with it. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello I am Frano Drive BMW x5 e70 3.0d 2009 with knap 300tkm. 5 days ago I got error 4x4 DSC ABS failed. Thought it was because of rain because it had rained too much. I read out the error with Carly and the result was VTG actuator defective Bought and fitted a new one today but the error still remains and has not changed at all. Still only driving with rear-wheel drive. It still drives as well as before no noises or jerking everything 1A but error still there. Could it be that I need to calibrate the new servomotor or something else? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Yes, it's possible that the new servomotor needs to be calibrated. However, before doing that, I would suggest checking all the electrical connections related to the 4x4 DSC ABS system. A loose or corroded connection could cause the system to malfunction. If everything looks good, then you should consider having the new servomotor calibrated. If the problem persists, it would be best to have a mechanic look at it.

Thank you for this answer. I was able to localize a similar error!

It sounds like your vehicle may need to have a battery registration process performed. When you replace the battery in many modern vehicles, the car's computer system needs to be updated to acknowledge that a new battery has been installed. This process is called battery registration. If this isn't done, it can lead to various electrical issues, like the ones you're experiencing. I recommend taking your vehicle to a mechanic or a BMW dealership to have this process performed.

Theoretically, I can do what I tried with carly or does it have to be done by the friendly one Lg and thanks

Hello Micha, are you sure that you have really connected all the cables correctly? And has the instrument cluster been programmed to the vehicle?

Hello what happens is that I acquired the scanner to reset the transmission but it tells me that you can not , or maybe I'm doing it wrong . Do you know if you can or not?

Hi, resetting the transmission is a delicate process and it's not always possible with every scanner. It would be helpful to know the make, model, and year of your vehicle, as well as the specific scanner you're using. However, if you're not sure about the process, I would recommend taking your vehicle to a professional mechanic to avoid causing any potential damage. Can you provide more details about your vehicle and the scanner?
