KAFAS Issues + Overheating - Can it be permanently disabled?
Here in AZ, it's already in the 100s and temps will keep climbing. This BMW I just picked up seems to be plagued with non-stop KAFAS errors, which per a conversation with a local dealer, can be normal due to the climate here. ISTA+ logs many errors and most of the time includes a fault for excessive heat for the camera. ISTA also says to replace the Camera and KAFAS module, but I don't think that will solve anything.
Is it possible to just disable KAFAS via programming? I don't care about the Lane Departure, Collision warning, etc. Otherwise, anyone else encounter the same issue and what steps did you do to mitigate? Thank you.

I believe I replied to your other thread about the issue, but I have never once had an issue with the system in my 5 series, and I’ve put over 100,000 miles on my car traveling the country for work. I have had intermittent issues with my 6 series when driving directly into the sun on a clear hot day, and want to correct the issue in that car. This makes me believe it’s just a component failing, not something we have to live with. (I hope). I don’t believe it’s a flaw that just exists, I don’t see enough people complaining about it for me to belive it’s normal operation issue in hot sunny areas, and not due to a failing component. |
