Stick the camera in there, and take a picture upwards. I’ve done that a few times on cars. ---

Attached. Maybe a little higher, but your pic didnt go that far. Behind the metal. Go through the speaker hole and up. Should be held on with a phillips head screw or two. If memory serves, that is. You’re 94 has the same body control module and harness as the other cars I’ve pulled it out of so it should be the same thing. ---

gotta love the go-pro wide angle. You’re telling me it’s in the space correct? held to the sheet-metal by a screw. I can’t find either anywhere near that speaker hole. ---

Isn’t there a diagram or something from BMW showing how to find and replace it? I can’t find any results for “body control sensor” anywhere. ---

Before we waste more time, are you sure this is what is happening based on what I posted before? Dome lights come on at same time, etc? ---

Dome lights come on at same time, etc? I had noticed the dome light has come on while the car has just been parked and off. However, I’m not sure it’s related to the hazard lights which at this point are on all the time that the battery is plugged in. ---
