EXTERIOR LIGHTING
I DISCOVERED FAILURES OF MULTIPLE WIRES IN THE TAILGATE/REAR WINDOW WIRING HARNESSES. THROUGH RESEARCH ONLINE I HAVE FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE OVER SEVERAL MODEL YEARS - SEARCH FOR BMW E61 TAILGATE WIRING PROBLEMS. THE FAILURES ARE CAUSED BY A POOR DESIGN WHERE THE WIRES ENTERING THE HINGE GUIDES (4) FOR THE GLASS AND TAILGATE ARE REPEATEDLY FLEXED AT A SHARP ANGLE UNTIL THE INSULATION, THEN THE COPPER WIRE BREAKS. SAFETY ISSUES - POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL SHORT CIRCUIT LEADING TO FIRES (HIGHEST LOAD IS FOR REAR DEFROSTER); LIGHTING FAILURES (REAR HIGH BRAKE LIGHT, LICENSE PLATE LAMPS AND OTHERS); REDUCED VISIBILITY DUE TO LOSS OF WIPER/WASHER/DEFROSTER; REAR GLASS LATCH OPENING WHILE UNDERWAY, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN LOSS OF CARGO OR INGRESS OF EXHAUST FUMES. THIS IS NOT AN EASILY REPAIRED PROBLEM. IT WOULD BE BEYOND THE CAPABILITIES OF ALL BUT A SKILLED MECHANIC WITH PROPER TOOLS. I DISCOVERED IT WHEN THE REMOTE LOCK/UNLOCK USING THE KEY FOBS FAILED. AS I INVESTIGATED I FOUND THE BROKEN WIRE, ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHERS WITH BROKEN INSULATION, SOME WITH BROKEN COPPER STRANDS. *TR

AIR BAGS
WHILE DRIVING ALONE THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ABOVE THE PASSENGER SEAT WENT OFF INDICATING THE AIRBAG WAS ON, BUT NO ONE WAS RIDING WITH ME. ALSO, THE SEATBELT LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ALARM SOUNDED BUT NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT. AFTER PICKING UP A FRIEND, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHTS WERE GONE UNTIL I HAD DROVE ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND THEN THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHTS BEGAN TO ACT UP AGAIN. I CALLED BMW AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE AIRBAG RECALL AND I COULD GET THE REPAIRS DONE AND SAVE MY BMW DEALER RECEIPTS IN CASE ONE DAY IT WOULD BE COVERED. I COULDN'T AFFORD THE $1200 SO MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN FIXED YET. *TR
