After replacing the battery, battery replacement has to be registered in the power module.Newer bmw's can experience battery draw issues. usually after battery replacment the active steering has to be re-aligned. you can try turning the steering wheel lock to lock to see if that solves your problem (usually only works on older cars) if you can find a shop that has a GT1 (bmw's older diagnostic equipment) they should be able to reset the light. At the same time if the vehicle has a battery draw and the power module is disconnecting the battery when the charge level gets low,that is your root problem and you will end up with an active steering fault over and over
usually there is a bulb out. if not,it can also be caused by high resistance (loose connection and corrosion) at a connector or bulb. if you are unable to find a defect, the lamp module stores these faults and they can be read out of the vehicle with the bmw diagnostic equipment.(gt1/isid) my recommendation is if you can't find the issue run the vehicle by your local bmw dealership i.m sure they would be glad to help.
