Hi all
My independent BMW mechanic attempted to resolve a window motor issue and connected his BMW diagnostic tool. When I got home I found that the key fob would not unlock or lock the doors. The blade key works as expected when inserted into the lock. When the key fob is inserted into the ignition the car starts and runs normally. I don't have memory seats, so I don't know if that was lost. These conditions are true for both key fobs I have for the car.
I know my mechanic will sort it out eventually but just wondering if there is something I can do w/ a Carly OBD tool or any other general poking around so I don't have to take it back to him.
Thanks in advance
I just found the problem. There is a broken wire to the diversity antenna. This is an e91 and the wire breaks over time due to the tail gate opening and closing. Easy to find, but doing a proper repair will take some time.
