Thank a lot for this movie. I did it and I needed approx. 45 min. I also don't need to remove the side handles and there was enough space to change the battery. Please be patient and attentive because the emergency unit control is not very visible after you lower the roof. To see the unit control you have to look at it from a large angle just behind the edge of the bodywork. Be careful not to collapse the headliner. Good luck!
Have the same problem on my 2019 X3. Shark fin antenna is leaking small amount of water and shorted out the entire module. If the battery replacement didn’t fix the issue then you may need to replace the entire module and reseal the shark fin. Hope this helps. Took me weeks of troubleshooting
Thanks mate, the video was very helpful. I however ordered the wrong part from BMW dealer but it fitted fine and has same specs, cleared the codes, hoping won't see the error again.
Thank you for the video. Can there be two batteries in the car or is there only one, either black or green? I have a BMW X3 (F25)  I found a green battery in the trunk and somewhere in the front there should be a black one, right?

If, after replacing the SOS battery, the message is still present, the SOS module may be defective. usually after replacing the battery it no longer shows any defects in the diagnosis.
hello, yesterday the mechanic changed the battery, everything was fine until the afternoon at 17:00 when I started the car, the problem reappeared, what could be the cause?

in acest caz launch x431, azi am facut aceeasi inlocuire la un X4 F26 si am facut diagnoza cu ista, o sa il pun pe site cred ca in vreo 2 sapt.O zi buna.
Va salut cu stima. Spuneti-mi va rog de unde cumpar si eu un Sistem de Diagnostic ca al dumneavoastra sa pot face exact aceeasi scanare la masina mea care este la fel ca cea din video ? Multumesc anticipat !
I use LAUNCH x431, it is also installed on the phone. I have a service and it is necessary, the price is approximately 1000 euros. I heard from Carly that it would be good for BMW
This is free all you need is a laptop with 300gb of space and a cable for £10.BMW ISTA+ what they use at dealers ua-cam.com/video/fGpAXDaS9TI/v-deo.html
Da este tot acolo, gasiti tot la mine pe canal si un video pentru x4 f26 cu inlocuirea bateriei, poate va ajuta avand in vedere configuratia interoiara a partii din spate.
@Car-repairs-advice So, my issue is that I cannot: - Make calls to BMW directly - MyBMW app no longer sync w/vehicle - SOS Malfunction message However, the GPS still works inside the vehicle. I don't think it's the Module TCB. Let me know this sounds just about right. I appreciate your input.
It's great but I am just annoyed at such a crazy place to put a battery that requires changing! BMW clearly doing this shit to make money! We pay a bit more for these cars for quality and this is really poor from bmw! 🤬🤯
You're right, but if you think about it, that area is very rarely subject to accidents and that's why the system is put there to announce the position of your car in case of emergencies, which can make the difference between life and death.
Thanks again. Just did it today. Took 30 minutes aprox. In my case i did not need to remove the handles and i had enough space to work.

Thanks bro
This video helped me a lot

Thanks for the video. I understand everything you do has to be done in both sides of the car ? C-pillar, handles…
correct

I just changed my battery on my G30 5 series and the ODB reader doesn’t find an error, any help would be great

usually after replacing the battery it no longer shows any defects in the diagnosis.
Is it Necessary to use the diagnostic system ? Won’t the warning disappear itself after you change the battery ?
sometimes it is necessary to delete the errors to make the error disappear.
Thanks !
Hallo, heb mijn batterij vervangen en de melding blijft na het resset toch weer terug gekomen? Kan het zijn dat de module stuk is?
Probeer een reset en kijk of de fout verdwijnt.
@@JHAMS-007-car-repair oké dankjewel. Ik ga het proberen
@@JHAMS-007-car-repair wij hadden alleen na het vervangen van de batterij het storing gewist en niet gereset zo als jij het zegt.
We gaan het proberen
Do you know if i can use Carly to clear the code?
You can delete all errors, it should delete everything.

Daca nu a sters erorile asa se intampla, ar mai fi o cauza bateria montata sa fie defecta sau consumata.

Salut, indicatii simple si clare! Multumesc! Ce soft de diagnoza ai utilizat?

ESTE LAUNCH X431 diagnoza o gasiti pe internet, atentie sunt si multe falsuri.
Mulțumesc !
How many working hours are needed to replace the battery
max 60 minutes
What a pain in the arse job .just for a battery replacement.
yes
Great video! Which diagnostic system do you use. Or can you recommend one that doesn't break the bank?

Can we also use bimmerlink to erase the code AFTER I change the better?
@@haykojan6590 yes
Can you reset the fault with CARLY after battery replacement?
La un x4 g02 2018 locația e tot acolo? Mulțumesc.

Looks like the same for F48 X1
Does this fit the x5 g05 2019?
Yes
@Car-repairs-advice So, my issue is that I cannot:
- Make calls to BMW directly
- MyBMW app no longer sync w/vehicle
- SOS Malfunction message
However, the GPS still works inside the vehicle.
I don't think it's the Module TCB.
Let me know this sounds just about right.

@@JHAMS-007-car-repair yes but bmw want 400 quid to fix this! It should be part of the service for a company like bmw!
