Check the fuses under the hood. Also look at the wires to see if any of them are burned. Our oil light suddenly came on Back on June 24th. The power steering suddenly went out, also. Then the car wouldn't start back up. We saw smoke, and had it towed in to a local repair shop. Found all of the wires burned, went up, and fried the computer. BMW has ordered the wrong replacement comuter. It is August 12th and I still don't have my car. This has been very expensive for a rental car and all the repairs. I recommend taking it in and fixing the problem before it causes greater damage.
