OBD connector

The data link connector for onboard

diagnostics is located on the left-hand

side of the driver's side, on the under-

side of the instrument panel and under

a cover panel. The cover has the letters

"OBD" on it.

The purpose of the OBD system is to

assure proper emission control system

operation for the vehicle's lifetime by

monitoring emission-related compo-

nents and systems for deterioration and

malfunction.

An illuminated indicator informs

you of the need for service, not

that you need to stop the

vehicle. Your system should be

checked, however, at the earliest

possible opportunity.

If the indicator blinks or flashes, this

indicates a high level of engine misfire.

Reduce speed and contact your

nearest BMW center immediately.

Severe engine misfiring over even a

short period of time can seriously

damage emission control system

components, especially the catalytic

converter.

lamp for Canadian models.

If the fuel filler cap is not on tight

enough, the OBD system can

detect leaking vapor and the indicator

will light up.

If the fuel filler cap is then tightened,

the indicator will usually go out after a

short period of time.<
