  1. E60 / E61 (2004 - 2010)
    Hi everyone, my E61 has been having issues with the central locking system, and it's linked to the diversity antenna. I've opened it, and the module seems fine. The wires though? not so much, and I made it worse: I realized that the wire coming from the car into the module (on the left) looks...

  4. 7 Series - E38 (1995 - 2001)
    Weird issue I’ve been having. The soft latch mechanism seems to be disrupted by caution lights and turning the lights on and off. Even when unlocking and locking. Something is shorting somewhere. If i leave the caution lights on, the latch will rotate locked and unlocked, in sync with the...
  5. E36 (1991 - 1999)
    Hi guys, I'm looking at getting a project e36. Found one but it has some wiring issues. I asked the seller what happened and he said the oxygen sensor fell and after opening the hood, he saw the wires like this. He said it continued to run after it fell, but after he turned the vehicle off, it...

    Hello! I recently replaced the stock stereo for a Kenwood KMM-BT332U head unit. After finishing the install I no longer have sound from any of my speakers. My first thought was the fuses, I replaced the two related to the radio. That did not fix the issue. In doing some research I came across a...
  8. E39 (1997 - 2003)
    Hello, this is my second post on here, and I have yet another problem with my bmw that I am absolutely stuck on. I have a 1997 BMW E39 540i. I have aftermarket tail lights, but reused the factory wiring connectors for the bulb sockets, so there should be no difference from OEM lights...
  9. E30 (1982 - 1993)
    Whenever I turn on the AC in my 1990 325i, this wire starts to smoke and smell like burnt rubber. Anyone know what this wire is called or how it relates to AC issues?

    So I just did a huge overhaul on a 2002 325xi and I'm having trouble locating where this connector goes. It is near the washing fluid reservoir. Hoping someone can help just by the location and images.

  13. F10 / F11 (2011 - 2016)
    Hello all! Thanks in advance for any help :) I’m having a nightmare fitting some aftermarket headlights. The pins are all in the wrong place and I’d really appreciate a hand. I have a 2013 pre-lci headlight with pins in positions 2, 3, 6, 9, 10, 11 and 12. The seller is asking me to find...

    Hey guys, Just bought a second hand bimmer and the dome light / light above the vanity mirror hasn't been working since I purchased it. All the other interior lights work fine (glovebox/footwell/rear interior) I have tried replacing all the fuses and the bulbs, but still nothing. I am opting...

    Hi folks, follow up question/thread: Having difficulty finding any fuses that seem to operate on switched power, not just constant - got a dashcam hardwire kit, and although I can find constant power (fuse 38 for the CD changer), having trouble finding an accessory power one. Will bust out the...

    Battery drains. Oh man. This has got me unplugging my battery if I'm not going to drive the cars for at least 30hours or so. The main culprit I can see is the headlight, the angel light globe doesn't work, and I can see the wire casing has crumbled. So I hope the battery drain is the the...
  18. General BMW Questions
    Hi all, I am retro-fitting a cruise control long range radar unit to my F26 X4, but the wiring harness behind the front fender is no longer available, so will have to make my own. Connectors are no problem, but I’m not sure what wire gauges are used. The secondhand radar unit came with a cut-off...

    After recently buying a 540i i found out that the bottom button panel is not plugged in, which makes me unable to use heated seats or turn off traction control. after looking behind it i also found that previous owners have been cutting a lot into the original wiring loom. After some digging...

    The passenger-side rear turn signal doesn't work on my 2018 X2. It isn't a bad bulb. There are no alerts popping up on the idrive screen, so I don't believe the car knows that there is a problem. If I plug the driver's side unit into the passenger side wiring harness, it works. If I plug...
