For anyone that was curious, it turned out to be the ambient temp sensor behind the passenger parking lamp that needed to be replaced.

But now im having the dreaded crazy seat warmer malfunction... the problems continue. lol
How did you figure out it was that sensor?

Funny enough, I went through a BMW forum that had the same issue on multiple cars. Bad sensor will make the temp read too cold therefor shutting off the compressor.
