I really wish I would have read just a few posts down earlier today. I read the first posts here and went about ripping my trunk apart on my 2011 to find out my module isn't in the trunk. Should have read down a few posts, doh! I'll have to bring the car to work and lift it on the hoist to get this installed.

Tom, does it matter which coiled Red/Black wires get attached to either end of the clipped Green/Orange wires?
I can't make out 100% from the picture which coiled Red/Black wires (MS Pin 3 & 11 vs. 10 & 2) are being connected to Green/Orange wires "closer" to the harness. Last edited by Ninja Please; 10-20-2015 at 04:43 PM.. |

In this image, you see pins 3/11 will go to vehicle side, with pins 2/10 going towards the module connector side.

I finally got around installing this this morning. I swear I am not usually this slow haha. I just came back from a test drive and it's still displaying the TPMS error message. I made sure to select TPMS reset via iDrive before the "drive off." I drove a good 2-3 miles around the neighborhood varying from 5 to 25mph. I also did notice the green LED turning on the MS unit when I plugged in the harness. After the test drive, I tested the module programming (since default is "on" I didn't do this after install) and is not working - when I lift both front window switches to POS2 for 5+ seconds, blinkers are not turning on at all. Did I wire something wrong? As you can see from my picture: * 3/11 is connected to wires from the vehicle * 2/10 is connected to wires from the receiver harness * Red from MS is connected to Red on vehicle * Brown from MS is connected to Brown-ish on vehicle Last edited by Ninja Please; 11-18-2015 at 09:00 AM.. |

Is the green data light on the module flashing when ignition is on?

Hi Tom,
The green LED light on the MS unit lights up (stays lit) when the ignition is on. After shutting off the car (and locking it via fob), about 10 seconds later, the LED light will go off. I double checked the spade connectors by removing them and reinserting them. Thanks! |

Did you guys get it to power on, activate (blinkers test)? Just needed one wire tap, and powered it directly from the battery. |

Yes, did it exactly as the instructions detailed. Had mine wired up as was mentioned by EAS in this thread. Attempted to activate via window switches and simply did not work. As mentioned, I uninstalled it after it didn't work the first time. I then reinstalled it ensuring connects were even more "secure" and didn't work again.

The cable colors in the E60 were off. Instead of green, I had yellow etc, but I followed the pin connections to the dot. Also the brown cable wiretap didn't seem to be secure so I had to tap manually. Also to activate, the car had to be off, key out and engine off and electronics/idrive all off. I didn't buy mine from EAS directly. Here are my modifications to the directions: 1. Remove BLACK (BMW PIN2) & YELLOW (BMW PIN18). 2. Insert Red (MS PIN11) into BMW PIN2 and Black (MS PIN3) into BMW PIN18: 3. Insert Red (MS PIN10) and Black (MS PIN2) into supplied 2-pin connector housing: 4. Insert BLACK (OLD BMW PIN 2) to Red (MS PIN10) and YELLOW (OLD BMW PIN 18) to Black (MS PIN2) using the supplied 2-pin connector housing. I had to break the housing clip to push it all the way in. 5. Using supplied T-Tap, tap into Brown wire (BMW PIN16), plug in brown wire from harness: 6. Connect Red wire from module harness to constant +12V, (battery terminal): 7. Connect everything back. 8. With the car on, try pushing up on the mirror switches. Did not work, so next time I tried with the car off, engine off, idrive off and got the indicators to blink. 9. Checked in the idrive and TPMS for each tire is green and the light has gone away. Last edited by sj22; 03-06-2016 at 07:20 PM.. |

It should be noted that mine never worked either. I got tired of taking the wheel and fender liner on and off to recheck and check it again. On top of that, I just don't have the time - I have a two year old lol. My M3 isn't a daily driver so it hasn't been bugging me - hell, I don't even know when I drove it last. I will probably have a local indy shop take a look at it whenever I need something else done. Tom has been great over the email. But ultimately, it is not working and I haven't been "on top of it" to get it resolved. |
