    UPDATE: When I reinserted the lock devise while the handle was still loosie-goosie, I tripped a switch inside the lock-devise hole, on the top. This will pull the handle flush. You can either push this little tab back with a screw driver before reinstalling the lock devise OR, inserting the lock devise will trip the switch as well. Here’s a video on a 3-series where that step is shown.

    I have a BMW X5 E70 N63. I had a issue last week where the car lost all audio and Bluetooth connectivity. It also starting firing " No Warning Tones". Your video, out of so many other videos out there, was the one that helped me fix it. I replaced the door handle as well as the fried Fuse#132 ( 7.5 Amps). The car works just fine now!

      @@Nissanpuc Check the fuse first before you replace the handle. Also, how many miles do you have on your car? There is a settlement that could save you a lot of money on a new engine. E70 N63 engines are notorious for leaking oil and blowing up after a while.

    Thanks for the video, I've been having a similar issue with high battery drain warning and it eventually blew the 132 fuse.....which breaks the M.O.S.T. loop which then also disables everything! Heck I thought my amp had fried at one point, but it was just the CAS fuse. Anyways thanks again for finding the parts site and putting this video together.

      I'm currently working on this exact same issue, the "battery drainage" has been an popping up for a while - I thought it was the rear gate not seating properly (another issue i need to fix) but then last week the 132 fuze went out.. no audio, bluetooth connection or chimes.. it's ridiculous that the door handles are tied together to the same circuit.. my mechanic did me the courtesy of checking the drivers side door handle while inspecting it but it turns out its one of the other 3 or just the front passenger (that's where i plan to start).. I hope they come out in a similar fashion, great video..
      First BMW & most likely my last.. good luck

      My issue and I'm sure most people have this problem is the battery was not holding its volts at rest have enough power to start the car so it was defective make sure your battery is above 12.2 at rest if not more than likely it's defective with a good charging system or a parasite draw

    • @clevelandaeromotive
      @clevelandaeromotive  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      shpat Gostivar Yes. Check fuses. If that isn’t the problem, it could be one of your Electronic Control Units (ECU’s) that controls the door locks. Let’s hope it’s a fuse.

    Your video couldn’t come at a more perfect time as I was about to go to the dealer for the exact same issue when I saw your video the night before. My concern is, I saw 2 different parts numbers on parts hub and couldn’t readily determine which one to select. The description didn’t help much #51-21-7-207-565 or #51-21-7-207-567. Doesn’t say front or rear. Do you happen to know the correct one?

    • @clevelandaeromotive
      @clevelandaeromotive  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think the best thing to do would be to enter your VIN on the home page, go to the door schematic, then it will tell you the exactly part number you need for that door handle. When in doubt, send an email to them or call. They will respond. Give’em a day or two though. They’re good people. Are the rest of your door handles’ Comfort Access’ working? If not, it could be your ECU (Computer).If it’s just the one handle, then this’ll probably fix it.

      @@clevelandaeromotive Turns out that the part # you provided (which I initially missed) in the video was the correct one (565). They responded and confirmed it. My other 3 doors are fine. Definitely a faulty handle as it is warm to the touch and is causing a severe. battery drain. Have to fix this asap as the winter will cause the battery to deplete quicker. Thanks again for the tip.

  • @KnuteJPhotos
    @KnuteJPhotos 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I heard that e70s are prone to high battery drain issues and most of the time it can be traced to the door handles is this what you were fixing? Mine has said issue with battery drain. And from forums this seems to be the issue.

    • @clevelandaeromotive
      @clevelandaeromotive  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It was easy for me because the comfort access simply stopped working on the front driver's side door. Your problem may be different if ALL you door handles stopped functioning at once.

These N63 are Junk the N63 TU black 50i engine cover are a little bit better but their imo designed to line BMW s pockets Even if your handy and can do own work any BMW v8 is so so hard to do almost anything on!! BMW actually drops the entire engine and subframe out of the car to do a R&R on the entire engine at once! Now who in todays broke ass world can safely afford that ??? This price point of a vehicle shouldn’t be riddled w/ as many problems as all BMWS have !! I went w the 35i x6 as their much More reliable and easier to work on your self.. Why I only drive BMWS I’m starting to ??? That my self .. 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️
