89 525i New Struts followed by Electrical Malfunction
I had the rear struts replaced (left side actually broke loose and was making a heck of a racket). Driving home (3 miles) the engine ran very rough. Next day I also found at least the following not working:
Power windows Wipers Radio Computer Shift indicator Sunroof Looking at a wiring diagram suggests to me the electronics under the rear seat. All fuses seem OK (continuous), but what about those modules? I suspect the struts, the engine, and the electrical are all related. Possible? Is there something in the vicinity of the struts I should have the mech look at (this is a neighborhood garage - nothing fancy) to see if they broke or dislodged some wiring? I can't easily get under there myself. Any other ideas? Thanks. |
Wipers, computer, sunroof, windows, interior lights. All of that is controlled by the body control module under the rear seat (if memory serves, its the one in the middle). I have no idea though how replacing the struts would have cause it to fail/cease functioning. I'd check all the fuses first, if nothing then that's your most likely culprit.
