Anyone know what these 3 DME codes are?

I pulled the following 3 soft codes from BM3 diagnostics:

235410 ... no description available
21A110 ... no description available
138102 ... exhaust flap control; short circuit from ground
(did check my exhaust flap connector and all is connected)

Found the cause of the 138102 exhaust flap short. It appears debris slit one of the wires at the connector to the actuator. Was able to remove (de-pin) the terminal from the connector. My local BMW dealer had a terminal in stock which I was able to make work. Soldered in a new wire and was goo0d to go.

If anyone needs the terminal part number it is 12 52 7 545 852. Had to modify it slightly.

If the flap can't open you'll have a loss of performance under hard acceleration and when in Sport mode.

Also if you have "short circuit to ground" it could be draining your battery.
