    Help with Code Please

    I have not been able to find what the code 801C20 mean?

    Scan tool is showing

    801C20 ZGM: central fault memory full - control-unit fault

    I haven't noticed any issues with the car except I was having drivetrain malfunction then replaced the battery and for now that seems to be fixed but now this code is around

    Any advise would be great I notice many people have the code but never follow up with a fix

    Thanks

    If you don't have any issues, then don't worry about it. BMW's set erroneous codes all day long. I can scan a car and have 50 fault codes set, and only one fault will be relevant to the issue at hand.
