Control lamps, signalling devices and indicators

Self-diagnostics of systems of the car


All important electric and electronic systems in the car are exposed to regular automatic testing. Thus you should not include or regulate anything.

So, at ignition inclusion, all control lamps are checked. If one of them is faulty, the information on it registers in memory of system of diagnostics of malfunctions, whence it is possible to consider it subsequently.

During a trip constant measurements of a current in the relay of servomotors (screen wipers, Glass lifts, seats, the hatch in a roof etc.) allow to supervise their working capacity.

Also electric resistance запальных generators NPB and all other elements of this system is constantly measured. Any malfunction is registered thanks to fluctuations of pressure accompanying it, and the corresponding signal about malfunction will be submitted by control lamp НПБ on a control panel.

Even after engine deenergizing the complete control of working capacity of your car is made. For example, all заслонки heating and ventilation systems move to the nearest final position. Thereby it is possible to provide preservation of function of defrosting even if in the car within night there was any defect in heating or ventilation system in any case.

After each deenergizing of the engine checking process during which time all servomotors move заслонки systems of heating and ventilation to both extreme positions is made. Final positions and a course заслонок are thus supervised that provides subsequently correct adjustment according to position of regulators.

Noise testifies to process of self-diagnostics of system of heating / ventilation from work заслонок which is audible after ignition deenergizing. All other functions of self-testing by noise are not accompanied and are not appreciable.

The information on all defects revealed during self-testing is brought in memory and can be считана by means of special devices that allows to define and eliminate quickly them (address to Section Diagnostics of malfunctions). On HUNDRED this work it is made in a planned order, at carrying out of the next maintenance service.

The control and alarm lamps marked with a sign "about", light up for some time for the purpose of check of working capacity at the moment of ignition key turn, and die away through different time after engine start.

If in one of systems defect the corresponding lamp after engine start does not die away is found out or lights up again during a trip. Actions which are necessary for undertaking in that case, are described more low.

Red lamps: immediately stop

The accumulator category about

Lamp fire serves as a signal about absence of gymnastics of the accumulator. Defect клинового a belt in a drive of the generator or chain infringement зарядного a generator current can be the reason. Address on the nearest HUNDRED BMW.
To continue movement it is impossible, as there is a danger of damage of the engine as a result of its overheat. At defect клинового a belt the effort which is necessary for putting to a steering wheel at driving increases.


Pressure of oil in the engine about

It is necessary to stop, muffle at once the engine, to check up level of oil and if necessary to finish it to norm. If level appears in norm address to Section Diagnostics of malfunctions.
To continue movement it is impossible, as there is a danger of damage of the engine as a result of insufficient greasing.


The control of pressure of air in tyres (RDC) *

In addition the acoustic signal sounds: there was a defect of the tyre. Immediately stop, avoiding sharp braking or maneuvers. More in detail in Section the Monitoring system of pressure of air in tyres (RDC).


Hydraulic drive of brake system about

If the lamp lights up at the released lay brake it means that it is necessary to check up level of a brake liquid. Before to continue movement, necessarily will follow the instructions resulted in Section Brake system.


Red and yellow lamps: it is possible to continue movement with observance of safety measures

The monitoring system behind braking on turns (СВС) about

If the lamp lights up together with yellow control lamps of systems ABS and ASC+T|DSC * it testifies to failure of all complex of adjusting systems ABS, СВС and ASC+T|DSC. It is possible to continue movement with observance of necessary safety measures. Address to Section Diagnostics of malfunctions.


Red lamps: as the important reminder

Lay brake

The lamp lights up at the tightened lay brake - at трогании from a place the acoustic signal in addition sounds. More in detail in Section the Lay brake.


Please, пристегнитесь* about

Depending on a car complete set at lamp fire simultaneous giving sound сигнала* is possible. Depending on a complete set of the car the lamp burns or some seconds, or up to пристегивания. For details about seat belts address to Section of System of safety.


Inflatable pillows of safety about

Address to Section Diagnostics of malfunctions. More in detail in Section of System of safety.


Orange lamp: it is necessary to move to the nearest HUNDRED BMW

Automatic трансмиссия*

Because of malfunction АТ of a gear change are carried out only under the emergency program. Address to Section Diagnostics of malfunctions. More in detail in Section Automatic transmission (АТ).

Yellow lamps: address on HUNDRED for check

System of antiblocking of brakes (ABS) about

Lamp fire testifies to switching-off ABS because of malfunction. Thus brakes function without restrictions. Address to Section Diagnostics of malfunctions. More in detail in Section Antiblocking system of brakes (ABS).


Oil level in the engine

At lamp fire check up oil level.


Brake Pads about

Check up a condition brake колодок. More in detail in Section Brake system.


The monitoring system of pressure of air in tyres (RDC) * about

Check up pressure of air in tyres. More in detail in Section
