Hi guys,
In Australia. 45 degrees today and got rear ended by another ca at a stop sign. Minor damage to rear bumper (have to get replaced as cracked). So drive for 30 minutes and got home and then 2 hours later was going to go to the shops and the light on my dashboard is flashing red and yellow and the car won't star (it's flashing even though the key isn't even in the ignition). I looked at the manual and it says the steering wheel is locked. Is it possible that the steering column is damaged? /Why is the steering wheel locked?
The car jolted (probably got hit at 40 km at a complete standstill with brakes on)
Waiting for insurance to call back but it's a minimum 24 hours and I probably won't have the car for another week as I wait for insurance.
Drive an 05 e87/120i
Just adding on 5 minutes ago I checked the car and it will start but the flashing light thing that happened for 3+ hours is freaking me out.
The wiring harness is in the trunk - I would start with that to make sure nothing shifted out of place and getting the codes read - if there are any major issues; those will give you a place to start troubleshooting. Best of luck!
