BMW fault code 002B

Electric steering lock

SI solenoid driver locking over Terminal 15 defective

Module version: Electric steering lock (ELV)

In: Z8 (E52) 2000–2003

Reading and clearing it

Fault code 002B is a BMW code, stored in the car's electric steering lock, not a generic OBD2 code (P0xxx): a generic OBD2 reader only reaches the engine's emissions faults, so it won't show it. AutoLingo for BMW reads it with BMW's own diagnostic protocols, in plain English, with the details the module stored about it, and clears it after a repair. If a fault comes right back after it's cleared, the problem is still there.

The electric steering lock is on: Z8 (E52)
