Power Supply warning anyone?

zambarossa · 10-27-2021, 07:49 PM

After starting the car, I got a yellow warning in iDrive about the Power Supply and that I can continue to drive but should have it checked. Cannot find any info about it, does anyone know what is related to?
It went away and I cannot see anything in the vehicle status. Car functions seem normal.

Is it there after a re-start?

The error message told you what to do - have it checked. The dealer will be able to see the error in the logs and give you a diagnosis.

My X5 does weird shit a few times a year. I re-start the car and don't see it again and it drives correctly. Could be some weird iDrive thing too, reboot iDrive, I have to re-boot the computer every once in a while. Hold the volume button down until iDrive reboots. Worth a try. If it persists, take the car in and have it checked.

Well obviously, I have an appointment in a couple of weeks. Just trying to see if anyone here experienced this before.

If you get BimmerLink or BimmerCode on the App Store on your phone, and buy a Bluetooth OBD plug, you'd be able to look at more details from the error yourself while you wait.

I had the same power supply alert when the car started up yesterday and it went away in a second. Have not seen the message since.

mzcp · 10-28-2021, 03:54 PM

I started seeing the same message when I coded with Bimmercode. It went away after I shutdown and restarted the car.

zambarossa · 11-11-2021, 08:42 PM

they did not find anything when I took it in yesterday. Case closed I guess unless it shows up again.

just had the same thing happen. Shut it off and restart, no issues.
