    Default bmw e90 steering lock fault

    gooday dk members

    i recently programmed a 2008 bmw e90 spare key with bmw multi-tool. the key programmed 100% as it starts the vehicle and works the central locking and unlocks the steering. however when you start the vehicle after a few secs . red warning light with a steering wheel and padlock symbol displays on screen and stays on. this just shows as a warning light because the steering does not lock once car is started. i tried owners old key and the same issue arises. the owner says the light was not present prior to the key being programmed.

    has anyone experienced this ? can anyone advise me on a solution ?
