It was a comical error. Typically actual repair mistakes are usually to do with order of re-assembly. Find some little fiddly piece that needs to be attached at step 3, that you remember when you are step 9 and get to do some extra practice un/re doing some work. Most recently was a plastic ( not really functional ) cap on the back of a hood release mechanism on my 740iL that I took off to lube, assembled without it on, and then found the piece. I need better tool organization, and a better workspace.
I definitely fo 1 step forward and 2 steps back a LOT during reassembly.
