So the alarm of your
BMW 3-Series isn't working
now I hope this video can help you
My alarm
decides to stop working every two or three months
The first time I took it to the BMW dealership and they charged me
ninety euros
after two months, the alarm was broken again
so i decided to try and fix it myself
And after a little research I found out this way to do it
so i decided to make this video to
help everyone with the same problem
i hope it helps for you too
the first thing you need to do is
get a screwdriver
then you should take-out these six bolts
and the glove compartments
comes right out
it could be that behind this light there's a little bolt and nut
that has to be moved, you have to take out the light and then you
will see where it's at
you have to take that out too
so then you've got the glove compartment
on your lap
You have to take out two pins
this one for the
lighting
and the other one
is for the BMW flashlight charger
you might have to use a screwdriver to take that out because it
kinda hurts your fingernails
then you need to be looking for a pink wire
this is what it looks like
could be
could be a little hidden under the other wires
its light pink
You can't miss it
then you take off the end of the cable, strip it
and you have to put it somewhere where it makes contact with the chassis of the
car
mass
usually I put it behind this little thing so that
i don't have to hold it against it
then yes make sure all the doors and trumpet and bonnet lid are closed
everything has to be closed
now you take the ignition
turn it into
i think it's called setting 2
where all the lights of the dashboard come on
after one or two seconds you can then turn the ignition backed off, completely off
leave the key in the ignition
press one time on the red button
one time on the grey button, could be the other way around I don't know I don't
think it matters very much
at this point the alarm should
respond again
try it a few times to make sure it
properly works
once everything works
take a piece of tape
take the cable that you've stripped and
isolate it with the tape
stick it back into the dashboard
and that's about it
and your alarm
should be working again
