my car no longer drives alone (G20)

hello everyone!
after leaving my G31 in the garage (I use the bike in the summer), I noticed that the car no longer drives alone.
When autonomous driving is activated, the green steering wheel no longer lights up but only maintains adaptive cruise control.
I haven't made any recent changes, so I'm wondering what that might be.

can anyone help me?
Thanks

Maybe OTA update that wiped out the coding?

Ufffffff I don’t know
I think I will have to take it to the dealership to have the firmware reloaded


Very strange… it change alone without touch nothing

is it possible that it could be due to the slightly discharged battery?

Im not sure if your tuned or not, how you feel about OTAs but sometimes glitches like this happen. Usually a fresh update will knock it out and fix it. I was having heavy issues with the BMW app forever and couldnt update because of my tune. Once they could unlock the DME after update, i did it and it fixed alot of issues. Just my 2 cents.

I solved it very simply… putting on the seat belt!

Unfortunately, I often drive without a seat belt and I had forgotten that the insertion of the seat belt is required to activate autonomous driving
