2001 BMW M5 key

Sunroof
Purpose of the System
When the ignition key is in accessory or “on”
position press the switch or slide it to the desired
direction to lift (2), open (1) or close the sunroof.
When lifting, the headliner retracts several inch-
es. The sunroof can continue to operate after
the ignition has been switched off as long as one
of the front doors has not been opened.
Mechanically, the sunroofs are similar in design.
Some vehicles are equipped with the steel roof
while others are equipped with the glass (moon)
roof.
The anti-trap feature of the sunroof uses a hall
sensor to detect obstructions while the sunroof
is closing. The initialization procedure must be
carried out to allow the sunroof to operate in the
opening direction and allow the anti-trap feature
to function.
The anti-trap is shut down 4mm
prior to full closed and during the tilt closing
function.
System Components
Sunroof Switch:Mounted in the sunroof motor trim cover, the switch provides coded
ground signals for system operation. The following signals are generated over three wires:
• Rest position.
• Slide open request (press and hold switch - first detent of
open position).
• Automatic slide open request (press further to second
detent and release).
• Tilt open (press and hold).
• Slide close request (press and hold switch - first detent of
close direction).
• Automatic slide close request (press further to second
detent and release).

Workshop Hints
SHD Self Diagnosis
The SHD monitors operation and stores fault codes if a defect is determined. The SHD
monitors the following conditions:
• SHD motor relays:The relays are checked for sticking contacts (plausibility) and non
functional contacts.
• Hall effect position sensors:The SHD must detect a pulse frequency from the hall
effect sensor(s) during operation.
• Sunroof Switch: The SHD monitors the signal plausibility of the coded signaling from
the sunroof switch.
Sunroof Fault Response Characteristics
If a fault occurs with any of these functions, the SHD responds as follows:
• Overrides the end run detection.
• Switches the motor off if the relay contacts stick for more than 500 ms.
• Switches the motor off if pulses are not received.
Emergency Operation of the Sunroof
If the sunroof motor does not respond to the switch signals, the hex key in the trunk lid tool
kit is used to manually turn the motor shaft drive.

Passenger’s Seat (without memory)
Principle of Operation
The passenger seat control switch is purely a mechanical switching module that activates
the passenger seat motors without position monitoring capabilities. Due to the limited op-
eration requirements, the passenger seat control switch is not equipped with on board
diagnostics.
The Passenger Seat control switch is equipped with an overload protection function. If
excessive amperage is drawn due to a defective motor or a switch is stuck driving a motor
to the end limit, the function activates opening the motor control circuit.
Passenger Seat Motors: Each motor is individually controlled by the Seat Control Switch.
Each position motor is connected to the seat position switch by a two wire circuit provid-
ing motor activation in both directions (no position recognition).
Passenger Seat Adjustment: Operation of the passenger seat is always possible regard-
less of the ignition key position. Moving a position switch operates a the motor control con-
tacts directly, the switch applies voltage and ground path directly to operate the motor.
Reversing the switch simply changes the motor polarity. More than one passenger seat
motor can be run simultaneously.
Optional Seat Back Lumbar Support
The optional air bladder lumbar support system is similar in all
vehicles (if equipped). Each seat contains the following com-
ponents:
• Four position circular rocker switch in the seat base trim in
the area of the seat switches.
• Electrically controlled air compressor with over pressure cut
out under each seat.
• Two solenoid activated air controlling valve blocks (one per
air bladder). Each valve block includes an inlet and an outlet
valve. When energized they direct air into the bladder(s) to
inflate or relieve trapped air to deflate the bladders.
• Connecting hoses and air bladders in lower seat back.

Central Body Electronics ZKE III

Principle of Operation
The lumbar support system can be operated at any time regardless of key position. The
four position circular rocker switch provides power switching to operate the system as fol-
lows:
• Position 1: The internal switch contacts provide a power and ground path for both valve
block inlet valves and the air compressor. Both bladders inflate until the switch is
released. If the switch is held continuously, an overpressure bypass valve opens on the
compressor preventing damage to the bladders.
• Position 2: Compressor activated, upper bladder inflates, lower bladder deflates.
• Position 3: Compressor activated, lower bladder inflates, upper bladder deflates.
• Position 4: Compressor is not activated. Upper and Lower bladders both deflate.
This function is not stored in memory for recall.
Diagnosis
The seat lumbar support system is purely electro-pneumatic control system. No electron-
ic diagnostic communication is possible.

Sleep Mode
To lower the constant battery draw when the vehicle is parked, the complete ZKE system
will go into the “Sleep Mode” 16 minutes after the ignition has been switched off and no
further ZKE function is active.
For example, the approximate E39 (528i) Battery draw is:
• Ignition switch off = approx 750 mA.
• One minute after = approx. 560 mA.
• After 16 minutes (sleep mode) = approx. 18 mA.
All modules in the ZKE system will go into the sleep mode. The P-Bus remains active, how-
ever no data transfer takes place until a wake-up request is received. The general module,
door modules or keyless remote module can wake the system up and put the ZKE back
on line. The K-Bus is active (high) in the sleep mode.
Sleep Mode Criteria:
KL R, KL 15 OFF and no further function activated for 16 minutes.
Wake Up Criteria:
KL R or 15 “ON” or a change in one of the signals listed below.
