- 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've just installed a keyless entry on my 2002 2.2 ltr z3 using your excellent video. Thank you.
Carl NZ.
I just wanted to send you a message to say thank you very much for your help in your video, I fitted a Chinese remote entry box to my Z3 2000 6 today and followed all your instructions and it worked perfectly all the lights too, and hazard, the way you described and explained second to none thanks again Peter in uk.
Thanks Peter. Really glad it helped.
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.
I purchased a locking module similar to yours with same handsets, I literally followed your video instructions and it works exactly the same, Great video thank you very much for thr help 👍
Thank you! Really glad it helped.
@@trufinv It helped me too. Specially With the relay for the blinkers
thank you souch brother 🤙🏻
Good stuff man
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.
It worked but it's not practical.
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?
The keyless entry kit had the inline fuse. Not sure of the amperage.
Thank you ,Very clear explanation video. But I have more question ,Cause of my key-less entry system have an open trunk button. Do you know which pin of central lock control module are control a trunk trigger?
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.
@@trufinv Yes, I known it won't pop-up when open a trunk. But I want to using an open trunk button.
I seen an attach file that you have sent (8 months ago) ,
So I must connect my key-less entry system "trunk release (+)" to connector "X13253" on pin "3" right?
www.olx.bg/ad/visokokachestven-modul-za-tsentralno-zaklyuchvane-beeper-200-CID360-ID6WZhw.html l that is shown a circuit as same as my key-less entry system type. But a key having open trunk button as same as this picture www.eeuroparts.com/Parts/74889/Ignition-Key-w-Remote-Control-315MHz-Coded-66126933728/
@@kasiduso7169 Hi! Did you manage to wire the trunk release ? Can you help me with a diagram or a link please :) ?
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
Thank you man, had same wiring, except, please correct the lock and unlock wires. Red and blue with yellow strip AND blue and brown with yellow strip.
Thanks again, really healpful!!
The wire color coding could be different on other versions but you easily see that when installing. Glad to help.
Thank you, why not attach the positive wire directly to the parking lights?
I wanted the hazards to blink. For me it was easier to do it this way without much fuzz.
@@trufinv my instructions say to connect the flasher signal (alarm brown) directly to the cars blue/brown wire on the hazard switch. would this not have the same effect without the extra wires and relay?
Hi when you wire through the gm5 this way does it activate the factory Alarm?
I don't know. You can try and see how it works out.
@@trufinv I'll give it a try and let you know how i get on
What year Z3 is this?
1997
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?
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:

thank you very much!
Hello
I was able to find the unlocking wire but I can not find the locking wire to tab into it, is there any other area in the car to track this wire down other than under glove box?
