On my driver's side rear window I have to constantly push button multiple times to get it all the way up or down, holding it down still won't work (and vice versa). Going to try this trick and see if it works. Will return momentarily. Praying this trick works like a charm because the warning ding and cluster light is so annoying. Lol.
Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial! Was at gas station and when I got back in the car my warning light for my power window anti-trap function came on and found it was my driver's that would not longer auto close. Looked in manual and no answer and was dreading a trip to the dealer for such a small stupid thing I knew would cost me my arm and leg! lol.
I followed your instructions along with you in my car and voila! All systems back to normal and warning light is gone and my window is fixed, you are a gem!! Thank you again so much for sharing 😁
I tried this and the window would not go back up
So Good! Well done MRT
Genius!! Worked on my f31. The image of the window didnt flash up on the display, but still worked. My passenger window wouldnt go up automatically, but this quick fix rectified it. Cheers mate!!
Worked a treat! Thanks. I replaced both rear window regulators on my 2008 E61 535d and followed this procedure exactly.
Thanks man. You’ve made my day. Worked like a charm. My right passenger window works perfectly again and no error on dashboard 👍🏻
So Good! Well done MRT
Thank you for this reset instruction. It was the 2nd I tried. You saved me countless hours and a possible trip into the shop.
Glad it helped
Thanks Mark
I have a 1991 E88, the passenger front door glass stopped working at 50%position with the same warning light on dashboard . I followed your tutorial and it didn't work on 1st attempt or 2nd attempt but 3rd time lucky. I also held drivers front window switch up for 15/20 seconds then same switch took the drivers window down released and held button down for around 15/20 seconds repeated this action 3 times, all windows now working and the warning light has vanished. Thank you.
So Good to hear. Well done. MRT
Thanks for the video. Just wanted to say, my window was stuck down but when I hit up, it would move but not make any progress up. I tried this but what fixed it was pushing the up button several times in quick succession. Once it's out of the bottom position, it works fine up and down.
Thanks for the help!
Video was short, simple and straight to the point. Super easy to follow while watching 🙌🏼
Short, to the point, and tells me exactly what I need to know! Thanks, worked a treat on my E61!
Thank you. I just had the error yesterday. My passenger side window.
Did what you said, it worked!
Thank you for the tutorial! Easy fix without spending a bunch of money. Mine did that this morning for the first time. My stomach dropped because that dreaded ding noise!! My car has left me stranded a few times and that darn ding always happens about 5 seconds before it stalls out. It now gives me anxiety anytime I hear it. 🙃 😟
Worked with 15 seconds on my e82
Soo Good ...Glad it helped
The steps above worked a little different to my 09 e60. Rear right window.
Ignition on,
Antitrap error selected in I drive in the info section.
Rolled window all the way down (in increments)
Release when at the bottom.
Then fully press and hold for 17 seconds.
Then immediately press and hold up, pressing up didn't do anything on on first try then I pressed again.
Hold and the window should go all the way up to closed (keep holding) the window should return to fully open and then back to the top.
Release button, clear I drive and then it worked perfect.
1 and a half years of listening to that F-ing beeping everyone I get in the car, finally finished!
Hope this helped someone who like me tried every TH-cam tutorial but to no avail.
Bravo. Theres another way where you press the trip meter button for 17 seconds but this worked gd for me
Thanks l!!! Whatever he was doing didn’t work for me
Totally worked. Thanks a bunch from the USA east coast!
Amazing video. Worked first time on our 118d. Thank you so much
Thank you for your help, did not expected to be so easy to fix 😅
Thanks mate worked for me too but one problem the warning chime and light wont go away , Cleared codes still beeping every10-15 seconds with window light on dash any ideas.
Worked perfectly on my 2011 F20 my windows just wouldn’t go all the way down or stay up at times after a long road trip, reset the drivers window and it’s all fixed. Appreciate the video
Worked on my E70 thank you man!
No problem 👍
Great, great video. Thank you this fixed my right, rear E90 window and cleared the CC ID 259 code on the dash. It does auto up and auto down properly now.
Thank you for this video. I had no idea what this warning light meant because it is not on the list that BMW has on their website. I did notice when I got out of my car that my window was down, and I couldn't get it back up. I had no idea that the warning light and my window had any correlation. I will give this a try.
Glad it helped
Many thanks mate,it works in my BMW e92👍👍👍👍( had this problem after battery and alternator replacement)
Well it worked fine on my 330i touring - 06. Thanks man.
budadi 👍
Worked on the drivers door of my 2018 M2, thank you so much for your video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much. Save me time and money going to BMW dealer.
Thank you....I have just fixed my window!
Well done Katie
Oh my god you saved me so much hassle! Window now working again on my 335d. Thank you!
Great info. This tip also worked on my 2015 BMW 2 series.
Thanks very much for this quick fix 😁
WORKED! 2006 325i even with back window stopping every 2 inches as it went down. And hesitating as it went back up. Good luck on this very ANNOYING feature
My 1 series coupe window rolls back down about 30% every time it reaches the up position. Can you help??
same, idk what to do
Wow it does help in mine e60 530d 2004❤
My 2 back windows won’t roll up unless I click up from the driver side at the same time someone in the back clicks up from the back window . So unless front control and back control are pulled up at same time for that specific window.
Thank you!! Worked on BMW e60
Cheers mate absolute legend
Very cool! I wouldn't have figured it would be as easy as setting the windows on the Corvettes.
What of it is coming on when you have removed the actuator and motor?
Cheers mate, worked for me !
Good on ya
👍
I got this window error on my 128i and after 1 week not driving it the error was gone and window functions restored. I did not disconnect the battery.
Im sure the fix in video can work but there is also some automatic reset in the cars.
Thanks a lot, bro! It really helped me 😊
Worked with mine!!! Thank you! BMW 330xi 2006
My driver side window will not go up or down. Any suggestions other than taking it to the garage to pay a small fortune?
This worked on my e82. Thanks so so much.
I checked the relays, fuses, changed the little grey box on the door, the black thing with the window buttons, even changed the wire hardness for the door. Still no power at all on driver door.😢😢
What about if your driver side don’t go down at all and the anti trap keep showing up whenever it’s pressed
That sounds like you have another issue. Look at your tracks to make sure they are clear and free and then also the motor.
Thanks dude,this error message just popped up and your instructions worked. Much appreciated.
My anti-trap warning light has been coming on.. I went through the reset steps and the windows are working fine but still the warning light is coming on and the RPM counter is fluctuating erratically also.. This started happening the same time as the anti-trap warning light came on.. Any insights as to what i should do.. Thanks.. It's a 54 plate BMW 1 series I have.
Great video worked straight away
My rear windows dont go down at all but you can hear the motors working
thank you, it worked
How to I remove the dash light for anti trap
This video shows the procedure to reset. That will remove the light. MRT
Thanks, worked like a glove for my 08 bmw 328i.
Glad it helped
Any idea if this works on an e46? Mine is in the shop right now so I can't test it myself.
It also worked on my Seat Ibiza 6j
Wow Thanks for letting us know. 😃
Didn’t work for me any other tips you can suggest for this
I unplugged my motor to keep the window up as I'm not paying almost $200 for a new motor and I get that error in my dash. However this procedure doesn't work, I even tried to clear the codes with my BlueDriver scanner it comes right back. Unsure how to fix this?
Worked on i3, thank you!
Wow i3 Awesome. Glad it helped
It worked , i love you💕
A true lifesaver 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Worked after replacing FRM2 module
I'm working on a 2011 328i the passenger rear window won't go down or up front nighter switch. I have replaced motor regulatory and switches what's next?
I’d say a multi meter is next. Test to of voltage is getting to the parts and back track from there
I had a guy put his obd computer to the car. It said the rear window relay was bad. The only power window relay we can find is in the fues box and it's good anyone know of anymore window relays and where they are located
And what if it don't go donw like that. Mi just judders down, I have to press it 5 times to get it down.
If it is juddering then you might have a broken window regulator MRT
Worked on mine! Thank you!
any tips for me? I own f36 430xd and my rear right widnow not working.
In my case the window is going down just about 10cm and then I have to press again and again for about 5 times to go down and this technique is not working in my case 😕
on god this worked on mine tooo thank you 😊
Thanks Mark. It works!
This didn’t work for my BMW 325 i and my windows are working perfectly fine I still have a code on the dash tho someone help me please !
Worked well thanks
My problem is I have no power on the driver side windows. I recently got a new battery and amplifier installed.
Awesome! Thanks for the video
My rear right window doesnt go all the way down , is that an error or it was in an accident
Hi did you try the reset procedure?
Didnt work for me. My warning comes on randomly, and when driving the window will open on it's own up and down twice when the light pops on. After it closes, the light goes away. 20 minutes later happens again. Also noticed that when closing or opening my sunroof shade the window will do the anti trap again and open and close twice. Regulator or switch problem? Any ideas? Alternator makes an odd noise and when I aggressively move the window switch up and down the car will idle much rougher
I has the same Problem and I reset it and the windows work fine now
But the anti trap error from the dash don’t disappear
What can I do ?
You are a true star 🌟 thank you so much.
Comfort closing on the passenger side didn't work. After trying this I can't open the window at all anymore (doesn't matter if I use the driver’s controller or on the door).
Sounds like you have a different issue. At least you know that it isn’t the switch if it is the same on both. I’d be looking at the motor to start with.
Sweet worked on my e60
My window won't go down on my 116i will this work with it.
Die it wirklich With ur 116i ?
Hi their! My front right window goes down fully but can't go up more then half way. Please help :)

The
Same
Thank you for the post.
You Solved my problem !! Thanks, keep coming with this tips man 👍🏻
Adam Adam 👍
Excellent video!
Thaks, it worked.
Will this work if it broken!
To me this trick worked with engane starting
Awesome when it works, not so much when it doesn’t. 😕
I did this process on all my windows, but the warning is still there and keeps on peeping, it is so annoying. All windows works fine now but warning is still there. I had problem with both back windows on my E91.
doesn't work for my 2007 bmw 750 li
My window won't roll all the way up or down at once, even if I hold the switch. It stops and must be held down again maybe 4 times total.
Hey those jingles I don’t hear anymore when I insert my fob any idea why?
Finally thanks a lot
Thanks great video 😀
I have bmw 1 series 06 tried this and it didn’t work don’t suppose you have any tips obviously will have to take it to the garage at some point lol
I can't get mine to work even when I hold it down for 15 seconds and up for 15 seconds.
thank you life saver 🙏🏻
I have a 2011 e90 320d Efficient Dynamics, and the auto close on the driver's door window only works with the engine running. Is that normal?
thank you i was confused cus my fkin neighbor fucked wit my window but you resolved my problem big THANKS
Thank you very much
