abs sensor In snow - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

TheTal0n · 01-11-2013, 11:44 AM

So we are having a huge storm in utah. I was stuck in snow and put it in reverse. Then my abs and passenger restraint light came on. Said it was a malfunction with a yellow light. Wheb I turned it odd my steering wheel lock symbol came ob. But started fine. I'm wonder if the sensor is blocked by snow? I have so much snow in my wheel well and inside the rim too. What wheel is the sensor on? Maybe I can poor warm water on it. :/ thanks guys

If drives fine with those warnings on, there's a chance that it's the snow causing it. Same thing happened to me, got the trifecta (ABS, Brake, DTC). Left it in the garage overnight to let the snow melt, drove it the next day and all lamps went away.
