BMW Repair: ABS, bmw z3, speed sensors


Question
MY 2000 BMW Z3 2.5 SAT IN THE GARAGE FOR ABOUT 8 WEEKS WITHOUT BEING STARTED OR MOVED. WHEN I FIRED IT UP THE ABS AND DSC LIGHTS CAME ON.THIS ALSO KILLED MY CRUISE CONROL. THE FIRST FEW TIMES I DROVE IT, THEY WOULD GO OUT UNTILL THE CAR STARTED TO MOVE. NOW THEY ARE ON ALL THE TIME. I'VE CLEANED AND CHECKED ALL THE WHEEL SPEED SENSORS TO NO AVAIL. IS THERE ANY WAY TO RESET THE LIGHTS OR TELL WHAT THE PROBLEM IS?

Answer
The quickest way to check is to hook up a scanner to access the codes.
As this has been setting I would guess that a relay or the pump for the system is the problem and not a senser or wiring.
Did you have to jump start the car?  Have you checked ever fuse?
You might try tapping on the pump(s) to persuade them to go.  If you have a prepump it will be near the master cyl.
