General Module 5

General Module 5





The General Module is attached to the lower trim behind the glove compartment. The general module controls the power-window functions. It receives the input signals from the door locks and the switch units, and monitors the power consumption of the electric motors that drive the window regulator mechanisms.
The (E85) Z4 has no antitrap function available. Consequently, one-touch closing on the passenger side is not allowed.
One-touch closing on the drivers side is possible at key positions starting from terminal 15.
One-touch opening is possible at key positions starting from terminal 15 on the drivers and passenger sides.





The power-window switches are integrated in the arm rests of the door trim panels. The drivers side power-window switch unit also incorporates a switch for the passenger side window, the buttons for the door mirrors and the mirror folding button.
Each power-window switch has four positions. Those positions trigger different functions depending on country-specific variations and the programming of the general module. The passenger-side power-window switch also has four positions.
