Break Issues and Cruise control did not work..

ctanod · 05-23-2010, 10:28 PM

Hey, I just lowered my car "e90" today. when i drove for a couple miles the Break Light turns on, and when I try to use my cruise control, it doesn't work.. please help me out .. I just change my Rear brake pads and rotors 2 weeks ago, the Front one was doing fine, My friend told me it was the brake sensor need to be replaced..

Why the cruise control didn't work ? ..

whenever you have a brake system malfunction, it will disable cruise control...

if you only have 14xxx miles, your still under warranty.. take it to bmw. if you dont want to do that, then i dont really know what to tell you. Your brake light could be on for a lot of reasons. Check your service info on your i-drive, if its still saying your brake pads are low you may just need to reset the brake sensor indicator (which is the light on your dash) im pretty sure that could be done by leaving your vehicle on without engine running for 1 minute. OR you may have a bad brake sensor. good luck.

Could be ABS sensor

Wheel speed sensor. The would disable DSC, ABS, and Cruise Control.
