BMW Remote Programming

   Three methods to try:
Method 1:

   This procedure is to program the remotes only.

Any transponder key programming must

be done by a dealer or locksmith.

1. Working from within the vehicle and with the doors shut.

2. Turn ignition to position 1 and back to off within 5 seconds.

3. Remove the key from ignition and press and hold the

    unlock button for 15 seconds, during this time press

    the key lock button 3 times within 5 seconds.

4. Release both buttons.

5. Doors will lock and unlock to show correct programming

    has occurred.

Method 2:

To do this procedure you need to have one working key

and one key that needs to be programmed.

1) Get in and close all doors.

2) Turn on the ignition and turn off quickly.

    (No more than 5 seconds) to start the process.

   Next action must take place within 30 seconds.

3) Remove the 1st key.

4) Hold the key up near your left shoulder.

    (this is so it is closer to the remote receiver antenna).

5) Hold down the unlock button and press the lock button 3 times.

    Release the unlock button.

    the doors should lock to confirm the operation.

6) Quickly repeat steps 4 & 5 for key #2.

    If it does not work, try doing the keys in opposite order.

   Key 2 then key 1, instead of key 1 then key 2.

Method 3:

Alternate if you do not have a working remote

1. Turn key to position 1 five times very quickly.

2. Remove key.

3. Hold unlock button then press lock button 3 times,

    release unlock button.

4. If you have another key.

   Repeat step 3 within 30 seconds.

5. Turn ignition on to finalize.
