1997 528i starting problem
Hey beamer enthusiasts I could sure use some help on this one. I have a few problems with my 528i. Some items just quit working and I've been searching for a common or the cause for each. The latest. I was parked on a hill. Started my beamer and progressed up the hill. It sputtered a couple times, i gave a little more gas, small misfire, it never came out of it and stalled. Now will not restart. Codes are 08, 11, f5,f6,f1,53. I changed the MAF figuring when the misfire occured, the misfire shorted the MAF and code showed Maf fault. Will turnover still will not start. Prior to this my keyless entry quit working,my steering wheel adjustment does not function, my airbag lite stays lit after starting and passengers highbeam on all the time. They occured at about the same time about a month ago. I checked all fuse locations theres about 5-6 locations even the e-box. Coincidence or is a module going bad. Is the ECM, DME or GmIII related to any of these. I do have the tech repair manual but I'm stumped.

Got keyless entry and info on high beam control module location. The rest is still broke. No responses for troubleshooting or trouble codes. OBD codes were reset after the MAF was installed and now no trouble codes yet no start either. I'll keep plugging and try other blogs if I don't get something back. First time I use this blogging and lets give a bit more time.
