How to Program a New BMW Digital Key

The brand new BMW Digital Key features cutting-edge technology that transforms your smartphone into a digital car key. It can unlock and start the vehicle using NFC without a physical key or fob.

Get your working BMW key, and then get into your car with the windows and doors shut. Insert the BMW key into the ignition and change it to position one. The electronics should light up, but the engine remains off.

Battery Replacement

The key fob might be small and tough but it's not immune to wear and tear. The battery will eventually have to be replaced. Fortunately, it is a simple fix. The normal CR2032 battery can be replaced with a screwdriver or valet key. Make sure you remove the retaining clip before you begin!

To access the battery, you must remove the tab on the side. Also, you'll need to remove the valet key which will reveal a tiny access hole. You can use a screwdriver to carefully open the port and insert the new battery. You should ensure that the battery is properly in its place and that the case is sealed securely.

You'll need to disable the current key if your BMW includes Comfort Access. The process is relatively simple, and you are able to do it from your iDrive system or via the BMW Connected app. After that, you simply activate your new key and then enter the car via the door handle in front. Your vehicle will detect the key automatically and start the engine.

BMW Digital Key Plus is another great example of seamless integration between your smartphone and your luxurious vehicle. This technology makes use of ultra-wideband technology (UWB) which allows your phone to "range" and automatically determine the distance between your vehicle and your phone. This technology lets you unlock your car, turn on your lights, and even start the engine without ever having to take your phone out of your pocket.

BMW Digital Key Plus offers various convenient features. It is also extremely secure. UWB technology is able to prevent relay attacks as it blocks your vehicle from being started in the event that the key isn't present in the car.

Key Fob Replacement

If you're a car owner, you probably already know that your key fob is necessary to access your vehicle's remote start or Comfort Access features. However, what you might not be aware of is that your BMW's key fob can also be replaced if it is needed. If you own an older model that has a replaceable battery, it's simple to take off the backplate and swap out the small CR2032 battery (also known as a watch battery) inside the fob itself.

They can be found at your local large-box store or hardware store. You can also find them on the internet. If you do not have a replacement, your owner's manual should offer instructions on how to open the fob and replace the battery. You will likely need something thin like a flathead screwdriver in order to pry the fob open at the junction. Be careful not damage any delicate circuit board or plastic parts. Once you've removed the battery that you have used, remove the fob cover and then place the new one in gently.

The next step is to program the newly-replaced key fob to your vehicle. Insert the key fob that you wish to program and the ones you wish to integrate into your car, with the doors shut. Plug in the key and rotate the knob until it is in position 1. The dash light and the accessories will be lit. Then, press the unlock button on the new fob as well as the BMW logo button 3 times. Release the button when you hear the door lock and you can unlock the door.

If your key isn't functioning it is possible to purchase an entirely new BMW key fob and have it programmed to your vehicle by an agent. The cost of the service is around $100 and could take as long as 2 weeks. However, you can save money by buying an online key fob from a company that is specialized in car keys, and having it reprogrammed specifically for your vehicle. It is important to ensure that the new key fob you purchase is designed for your car's model and year, and that it is genuine BMW. It is also recommended to obtain a copy of the VIN number as well as a government identification for your vehicle to prove ownership. Some online sellers may require this in order to prevent fraud.

Keyless Entry System Replacement

If your BMW has keyless entry, a new fob is required to unlock and start the car. The dealer can make a replacement key for you, but it could take as long as two weeks for it to arrive. This is a long time to be without your car. Some local locksmiths will replace your BMW key at home on the same day. They can also program the new fob with the internal settings of your car.

It is possible to save money by purchasing a new BMW key fob online from a seller who specializes in these kinds of keys for automobiles. You'll need your new key fob programed at a dealership or locksmith before it can be put in your vehicle. This process usually takes between two and three weeks, so you'll need to plan your schedule accordingly.

Most modern BMWs include a "removable key blade." By pressing the button located at the base of the key fob enables you to slide out the blade made of metal. You can then use it to unlock the doors and start your car like you would with an ordinary key. This is an excellent feature for owners who share vehicles with other drivers.

This option is not available on older BMW models like the E-series. If you own an older model that has keyless entry, then you will need to manually open the door. A lot of BMWs have a small hole at the top of the handle but you'll need to be careful not to scratch the trim panel while inserting the blade. You can also consider the "keyless" method that utilizes ultra-wideband technology to secure and start your vehicle.

BMWs equipped with Comfort Access come with sophisticated anti-theft systems. The system ensures that the key is in the right place and that it is sending the right signal. This makes it very difficult for third parties to copy or hack the key fob.

Key Fob Programming

BMW drivers often need to be taught how to program the new key fob. This is a fairly simple process, and it can be done at home. First, enter your vehicle and shut all the doors and windows. The next step is to insert the working key, and turn it to the position one (do not start the engine). Dash lights and accessories will now be on. Remove the key, then on the new fob that you want to program, press the lock button three times while holding the unlock button. After that the doors will automatically lock and unlock, indicating that the new key has been programmed.

If you plan to program additional keys at this moment, repeat the steps within 30 seconds of programming the first key. You can do this at any time in the future. If you lose your keys, it's always a good idea to have spares!
