today when i powered up and tried to leave the garage, the backup camera did not work. subsequently i realized that none of the cameras must be working, since the machine vision stuff was completely offline. furthermore the GPS was not working and my map position was not updating. not understanding if the problem would get worse, i drove home, scheduled a service appointment, and took another car.
from reading here i see that letting the car go into deep sleep should cure the problem and sure enough when i booted up just now at least the rear camera was working again.
for those of you that have had this problem: is this something that all of these M3s just do, or is there some marginal or defective component that can be replaced by the mobile service folks? as a hardware guy this sounds like some kind of power-on reset bug which could be the result of a design flaw.
thanks
