Keith,

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X300 forum.

This is the place to post questions about your vehicle. Members here with the same model will be able to help.

Hi
Have you tried disconnecting the battery for 60 seconds... and see if things are reset. I found the same problem last week (97 X300)... everything was dead. I did a quick reset with the battery and everything worked perfectly..

You should check all the fuses. That is easier (at least for me) than looking up which circuits run the BPM outputs. Turn on the key, then use a test light (to ground) to probe the little hole on the outside top edge of each fuse. when you find one not lighting, check the inside hole to be sure the circuit is powered up.
