/Central Locking and Anti-Theft
This section covers repair information for door, trunk and car-
go compartment locks, central locking, electronic
immob~liza-
tion (EWS) and anti-theft alarm (DWA).
€39 cars are equipped with sophisticated self-diagnostic elec-
trical systems. When experiencing malfunctions relating to
central locking. EWS or anti-theft systems, start the diagnosis
process using the
BMW service tester DIS, GT 1, MoDiC or
equivalent scan tool. An advanced diagnostic scan tool can
usually pinpoint electrical faults quickly and safely.
Additional electrical information can be found in:
610 Electrical Component Locations
ELE Electrical Wiring Diagrams
Central locking in E39 vehicles controls the door
locks, trunk
or tailgate lock and fuel filler flap lock. The control module for
the Central Body Electronics system (ZKE
Ill), lknown as the
General Module (GM
Ill), controls central locking.
ZKE
Ill manages the following central locking related func-
tions:
Central locking
* Keyless entry
Key memory
Power trunk release
Electric opening of tailgate
DWA alarm system
Diagnosis
General Module
4 The General Module (GM) (arrow) is responsible for the op-
eration of central body electronics. The GM is located behind
the glove compartment.
Based on input information, the GM uses internal transistors
to switch current flow (providing voltage or ground) through
circuits and actuators. Actuators are the final controlling de-
vices used by GM to operate or control various output func-
tions such as relays and motors.
The accompanying schematic, Central locking inputs and
outputs, illustrates the GM central locking system.
