key remote buttons won't open car.
title says it all mostly.
also my passenger rear door won't lock when using the middle lock button in the car. any help would be great, can i charge the key driving around maybe or what fuses should i start to begin with? 2001 3.0i |
Youtube: bmw key initialization. Very simple procedure to pair the key with the car again.

Most likely a failed actuator.

When there's an issue with the central locking system (like non working actuators or blown fuses, etc)...the remote operation usually shuts down...and attempts to reinitialize the keys won't do anything if there's still an issue in the system.

I hope I don't need to open the key up and try to replace a battery. |

The DWA (alarm system) & FZV (central locking system) both use the battery inside the key to send the 315 MHz RF signal to the vehicle. Since they share this signal...you can use the DWA system to check if the battery inside the key is working, too. Initiating Panic Mode:
Another thing to check is the DWA (anti-theft alarm siren system) red status LED (the clown nose below the interior rear view mirror). The FZV & DWA systems (central locking & anti-theft alarm siren systems) share some components (the doors)...so if one of them is remaining open...the DWA red status LED should blink fast for 10 seconds when you lock the car with the remote (which isn't working right now) or manually from the exterior driver's door lock: |
I recently had an issue with my Gen III module, where the door lock system didn't function, (as well as window wipers )
Just another possibility! good luck |
