E84 Transfer Case Actuator Motor and the ABS/4x4/Chassis Stabilization Lights

[alpenglow]

New BMW owner here, and new to the forum.


I recently acquired a 2014 X1 xDrive28i and 2 days in, popped the dreaded three warning lights (ABS, 4x4 and Chassis stabilization system). I've done my research and this issue is well documented as a plastic actuator gear in the transfer case actuator motor on the X3 and X5 with the ATC350 transfer case. However, there is no mention I can find of the problem on the X1 (E84) which uses a different transfer case (ATC35L) and a different actuator motor. If there is a similar plastic gear, it doesn't seem to be widely available as a replacement part like for the ATC350.


Does anyone have experience with this issue on the X1? I'm not sure if I'm on the right track replacing the actuator motor.

  Still having problems with my X1 e84 xdrive, changed the transfer case actuator motor. Clear all the error codes, as well as going through the diagnostic and reprogramming for changing the part.
  Took for a run approximately 8 to 10 miles later the 3 lights came on again, abs, 4x4, and traction control. I've noticed the brake light on as well.
  Can the brake pad warning sensor cause the abs, 4x4 and traction control lights to come on?
  Can anyone help please.

Still having problems with the X1 e84 xdrive with the same 3 warning lights coming on, abs 4x4 and traction control. Through the diagnostic for changing the part, which I did for reprogramming and clearing the fault codes.
Took it for a run after approximately 8 to 10 miles the 3 lights came on again, abs, 4x4 and traction control. I've also noticed the brake light comes on. The brake light warning sensor for the brake pads, can that make the 3 warning lights come on the abs, 4x4 and traction control.
Can anyone help with this please, I've checked the speed sensors for abs and there all working properly.
Thanks
