  • How to easily install a keyless entry system to Z3 or E36 3 Series:
    Read This for the exact pin numbers!
    1. Remove glove box
    www.unofficialb...
    2. Locate ZKE4 module
    www.bmwgm5.com...
    3. For powering up the keyless entry module use 2 pins from the black connector X13252
    - Pin 10 - Power Supply - red/green/yellow
    - Pin 15 - Ground - brown
    3. For Lock/Unlock use 2 pins from the purple (or yellow) X13253 connector
    - Pin 7 - Brown / Black
    - Pin 17 - White / red /yellow
    4. Lift up hazards switch and splice into 2 wires
    - grey / red
    - blue / brown
    Shorting those two should start the hazards
    5. Use a simple 4 pin relay:
    - 85 - ground (from the module you are installing for ex)
    - 86 - Hazards output from the module (+12v)
    - 30 - grey / red from the hazards switch
    - 87 - blue / brown from the hazards switch
    Trim and isolate all wires you are not using, and put it all back neatly and you're done.
    I advise testing each of the pins you are splicing into before connecting just to make sure you got the right ones.

    I have a Z3 1998 and it has the alarm wire harness behind the glove box, so the connection is much easier. I wonder if you missed that.

    If your keyless entry stops working or is partially working, it is because the door close microswitch is broke. I unhooked it and it started working again.

    PIN numbers are wrong and so are the colours
    It’s pin 4 Blue/Red with a yellow stripe
    And pin 17 White/Red with a yellow stripe
    Did this today in my Z3

    Did you put that fuse on the (12v) brown wire or did it come like that in the keyless entry kit? If you did add it on, what amp is it?

    • @trufinv

      The keyless entry kit had the inline fuse. Not sure of the amperage.

    • @trufinv

      As z3 trunk does not lift automatically (no spring) trunk trigger would not make much sense. That would only leave the trunk unlocked after you re done.

      How'd you get your pins? I'm checking a 1996,1997 and 1998 pin out and none of the pins (description/video) match. Using a BMW Electrical Troubleshooting Manual I found online.

      @@Ghost129er At that time I looked it up online, but I always use a multimeter to make sure I have the proper ones. When I was young I installed car central locking systems and alarms at some point and never had any pinouts or schematichs, just a multimeter did the job.

    Dog you know how to connect the cable for rising the Windows when you press the lock button?

    • @trufinv
      @trufinv  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I am not sure as my keyless acces cannot easily be used to do that. It should either maintain the relay open/closed while keeping the button on the remote or provide a channel with a big enough timer in order to do so. It can be adapted but I didn't bother. Perhaps you could use the pinouts bellow:
