Description of On-Board Diagnostic System

Notes on the BMW DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM:

With *D* MONITOR OUTPUTS, a check can be made as to whether the interior light relay in the relay module is switched on by the general module. The display does not depend on the position of the interior light switch.

The interior light control system is not included in the defect code memory of the central body electronics (ZKE). Troubleshooting is possible with the status lists only.

The interior light control is selected via the door lock heating system. If a door lock heating system is not installed, the "door lock heating" detect is of no significance.

A door lock contact can be installed only if the vehicle is equipped with a door lock heating system.

Troubleshooting:

Notes:

- Troubleshooting with the BMW DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
- Battery charged, U-min = 12 V
- If all central body electronics functions ZKE have failed, carry out troubleshooting in accordance with Central Body Electronics (ZKE).

Important!

When the supply voltage is applied (terminal 30 at Pin Al), the ZKE general module detects which part systems are installed in the vehicle. Undefined contacting when plugging in the module can result in systems not being detected. Therefore:

Disconnect vehicle battery before installing a ZKE general module!

or:

Disconnect the vehicle battery for at least 5 seconds after installing a ZKE general module.
