Where is the inertia switch located in a BMW X3?
Years 2003-2010

Answer

BMW cars do not have an inertia switch. The same serves to interrupt the flow of fuel to the engine, instantly, in the event of a collision. The BMWs, on the other hand, have a pyrotechnic charge that blows up the connection of the negative pole of the battery, thus cutting off the power supply.
