The EWS system may have lost alignment and could be causing your no crank, no start condition.

That re-alignment requires special equipment. This means you might need to go and see your friendly neighborhood BMW repair facility. You might save some time/money by calling around first to see if they can perform this realignment.

A minimum time is involved, perhaps a hundred bucks.
