G82 Rear Diff error after steering wheel swap
I recently swapped my steering wheel on my G 82. It’s a 2023 model so only has 1600 miles on it. I had an issue where I broke one of the connectors that goes into the controls on the steering wheel so they’re non-functional right now. I have it disconnected. But now I started getting an error for the rear differential lock which says it’s limited. Does anybody know if there’s a fuse for this? If not, I think I’ll have to take it in for service just to have them look at it for this issue. By the way, I ordered the new part for the steering wheel but it’s gonna take 4 to 6 weeks to get here . I have looked at the few schematics, and cannot tell if there’s an actual fuse for the rear diff. If anybody has any insight as to where a fuse could potentially be located for the rear differential it would be greatly appreciated and very helpful, so I do not have to take it into the shop.

I had a similar error when I broke that connector. I soldered the wires together. That button also affected the M1 and M2 buttons and a bunch of other stuff. Take a look at that connector and make sure it's okay.

Maybe I should just unplug that connector. How did you get it resolved?

Leaving it unplugged will throw errors. The connector has two pins. I broke both pins and the housing. I soldered the pins back in place and did my best to put the broken housing back together. I got it to work, but I did order a set of new connectors to replace it with. Unfortunately my car got totalled over a week ago. So if you need that connector, let me know I have a set which I haven't used yet.

For me when that plug was broken, my M1 and M2 buttons stopped working and some of the safety features were disabled. If you have none of those symptoms then it's probably a different connection for you.

I definitely have some of the safety features disabled in my M1 and M2 buttons are not working either so maybe I have both connectors as the issue.

How much do you want for the plug you have? What area of the country are you located in?

I hydroplaned during the rain and hit a barrier. Luckily no one was harmed or injured from the accident. Good thing is I just placed an order on a new M3 just yesterday. Can't wait! |
