Problems with the ABS/DSC system on BMW X5

ABS/DSC system is not working

Hello everyone, I have a problem with the ABS in my BMW X5. The ABS and DSC lights sometimes come on, but are often off for longer periods of time. When the lights are off, the ABS and all other systems work perfectly. However, I cannot read out any fault codes, neither when the lights are on nor when everything is working. Even with the Carley diagnostic tool I can't get any information about the ABS system, although on other models like Opel or VW it at least shows the presence of the ABS. Does anyone have any idea what this could be due to or how I can diagnose the problem? Many thanks in advance!

Start by checking the wheel speed sensors for dirt or damage, as they can cause intermittent ABS and DSC light issues. Clean them and ensure they are properly connected. If the problem persists, let me know for further guidance.
