I have an OBD scanner I picked up from ECS, Schwaben brand (ECS in-house? Dunno)
If I could find my DMM I'd use that... Drove to work this morning, no issues |

Dash lit up like "Christmas Tree"
I have had the instrument panel light up multiple icons intermittently on two of my BMWs in the past. Both times, replacing the alternator solved the problem.

I just replaced the voltage regulator. It looks like it sold a number of my issues however I have the red battery light on. Has anyone encountered the same situation? I will be double checking all the connections. The car only has 42k miles so I hope it's not the alternator

Sorry to revive this old thread, but I've also been having the flickering ABS/DSC/BRAKE lights. For me they only start acting up 30-40 miles into a drive once I've been running the engine at higher rpm. Sometimes, the audio system cuts off along with the lights for half a second but very rarely. Anyway, my indy mechanic has replaced the alternator, and then the control unit for the ABS/DSC system. Both times, the same lights came back and now I'm running out of ideas and money... yikes! Any other reasons this could be happening? My Z4MR has only 16k miles on it.

My 2010 BMW 335i is showing yellow for every code possible, DTC, Brake lights ABS wheel stability and also states to have vehicle serviced soon. I only have 49,532 miles on the car and had a tire replaced in the middle of November due to uneven wearing. I have not driven the car but a couple of times since that time due to an illness. What is possibly wrong with my baby?

I also see a correlation with ambient temperature- the last two times I drove to work (1 hr / 70 mi) on a <70 deg morning, it hasn’t happened (except once as I was pulling into the parking lot at the end). But on the two drives home in 80s-low 90 deg weather, it started happening after about 30 min, right after I got off the highway and was at a series of stoplights. It happened with increasing frequency, even once I was back on the open road, until it was near-constant flashing as I got home. I’ve checked the battery voltage with engine off (12.5V) and on (14.5V), so I’m pretty sure it’s not the battery, and the alternator seems to behave well in a nice cool garage. I’ve ordered a voltage regulator made by Valeo (French) from here: https://www.iwingoods.top/new-valeo-...1n-p-14377.htm But it looks like it’s coming from China... if it hasn’t arrived in the next 10 days, I’ll just suck it up and have the whole alternator replaced to take care of the problem. Experience or input from others is welcome as I deal with this... |

Anybody have a source for the voltage regulator now?
My car just started doing this, and gives me an over voltage code on the dsc module. Thanks in advance.
