  • Hidden menu in BMW 5-Series E39 (1995-2004) gives access to diagnostic tests and readouts from various sensors in your car. Check battery voltage, fuel level, sound chime, displays and indicators, perform gauge sweep (needle test) and more.
    This service mode is made for early diagnostics of your instrument cluster and other vehicle components.

    This is great! My car shuts down at "30L" of Diesel, now I can debug the problem! (BTW my e39 525 TDS anly as one left button, I did not need the code, but in order to unlock the other menus I had to turn the engine on). The #14 trouble codes appear if there is some "trouble" or they are always there? Thanks!

    I am wondering if my check engine light works or not. I have a minor issue, possibly bad MAF, not sure. When I turn the car on (but not start engine) the words "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" light does light up. But it doesn't during the Test No 2 cluster test. Is this normal? Is my CEL the "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" message? I wonder this because it doesn't light up, although I have an engine issue, and when I go to test 14, I get 5 different DIAG codes. They are each 7 characters long (mostly letters) so not typical OBD2 codes. Thanks...

  • @captainfallsalotatppic2508

    I'd imagine the Bimmer plant locked the cluster because they knew people would eventually start poking around in the system's menu and end up screwing it all up and ending up with a cluster panel not working at all. It has a lock code for a reason. The only option I useful within the service menu is the cluster pannel test.

      I have a funky issue with my very low mileage almost new e39 528i 1998.
      After driving 5 hours on the rain (like a mist in some parts) and parked in front of the house for 3 weeks (because poring rain and ice at nights).
      And when decided to run the car, had a longer crank than normal, engine start misfire drove it fir while and when stop engin shuts off.
      When wait for 20min. (cool down) it started no problem and after worm up stops again?
      Changed sparkplugs but still the same.
      No Ceck Engine Lights!
      I realised my Front Right Low Beam is buzzing and sometimes even lights up and go even with key in my pocket?
      Short Circuit somewhere?
      And after connecting with INPA Can see Engine management light is on (on my PC nit on the Clouster)?
      I'll do the Clouster test now ti see if will light up.

      Could just be a bad crankshaft position sensor. It’s under the car. One screw and it pops out. It’s not hidden under the plastic cover, it’s literally right there infront of you.
