Theres a counter associated with the ELV (electronic steering lock). If the steering lock fails to unlock the steering column a number of times and exceeds a maximum limit, you will get that warning light on the dash. This can happen when you have a low battery condition
This can be fixed with Tool32 (Part of BMW Standard Tools) which resets the counter. They are these two jobs:
steuern_elvcounter_cas_loeschen
steuern_elvcounter_elv_loeschen
I am not 100% sure if it will fix it in your case, because from what I read, the steering lock should still attempt to unlock even when it shows the error on the dash?
