For the BMW 7 series (E38) 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001 model year. Fuse box in engine compartment. fuse box location. Open the hood.
see if there is an inline fuse on the power wire to the radio. It appears to be a known issue. Check out the link
Page 104 of the user manual articulates the climate controls functions of the vehicle. Defrosters are identified as buttons 16 (front) and 15 (rear). Temperature control with buttons (6) down and 8 (up).
the first thing to do is check for low coolant level,the next thing to look at would be the blend door actuators, you may have a bad actuator, this is what controls the temp, by opening and closing the hot/cold door, if this is not working you will not be able to control the setting,this car has a few ,daul zone control also has a few, these are located under the dash on the heaterbox, but test them first, to make sure control is sending current when command to do so.
problem here can arise through the car always being locked / unlocked with remote, the actual barrel in the lock can sieze up, worst scenario is to replace the lock barrel, your local bmw dealer should be able to order you one which will fit your key (if it is original one ) you may need to show your v5 and take photograhpic id proof with you!
pretty quick. but be sure it the alternator. You can test it by starting the car then unplugging the battery. If it cuts off when you unplug it it's the alternator if it keeps running it's not the problem
You will need to verify you are getting power to the solenoid when the trouble is present. If not, the next place to look is the starter relay, then the ignition switch.
When the car is stationary. Push down on the back (Boot or TRunk) as hard as you can a few times & listen for the squeek. It's more common in the rear suspension from my experience. It sounds like the bushings are gone or worn at the top of the suspension struts.
That's if it does squeek. You might not need your suspension replaced just the bushings as they are normally plastic.
Try doing the same by pushing down at the front of the car also as it maybe happening there too.
