Hello all, Wondering if any of you have ran into an Error Code 65 on your GEM car? If so, anything I could do to fix it on my own, without taking it in to a dealer? Mine is a 2012 e4. Thanks! ---

This is what -65 relates to. Don’t know if coil failure is common or wiring short. ---

If code persists after disconnecting coil, fault is in wiring or controller. IMO No experience with this error. On second thought, disconnecting won’t help! ---
