Safety system not working

[4seaer]

Recently, I noticed my “Safety System” button is not lit up and does not shut on or off the safety systems and then I noticed that my volume button on the dash does not work or is lit up either but my steering wheel volume still works anybody have any ideas or had a similar situation that they fixed?

Did you scan for any errors?

No

I don’t have any check engine lights

I've seen videos of this happening to other folks, but it fixes itself after you power cycle with a door lock. If that doesnt fix it, and you didnt mess with any coding, i would dealership it

You don't need to have a CEL to scan for module errors.

There's plenty of errors that can show up via an OBD reader that won't throw a warning light. For example I had oil pressure warnings before my pump began to fail that wouldn't throw any lights.

If you don't have one / aren't willing to get one, you can drive to Autozone and use their OBD scanner for free to get a report, then Google any codes you find.

Otherwise, going to the dealer is the only real option if no codes are throwing.

Nothing on the scanner, all clear

WHat scanner did you use? Something that accesses the BMW Esys network or just a generic Autozone?
