none of those items are affected by the ECU.

check all power conections in the ECU area , sounds like you've left something loose possibly

PPPP means "contact a BMW service station".
Try disconnecting the battery for a while.

If you took the clocks out and disconnected its plugs, then are far as the OBC is concerned, you HAVE disconnected the battery.
