Battery, Starter, Alternator
Warnings and cautions
WARNING -
Wear goggles, rubber gloves, and a rubber apron when
working around the battery or battery acid (electrolyte).
Battery acid contains sulfuric acid and can cause skin
irritation and burning.
If acid is spilled on your skin or
clothing, flush the area at once with large quantities of
water. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, flush them with
large quantities of clean water for several minutes and
call a physician.
Batteries that are being charged or are fully charged
give off explosive hydrogen gas. Keep sparks and open
flames away. Do not
smoke.
CA UTIOI\C
Only use a digital multimeter when testing automotive elec-
trical components.
. If a repair procedure specifies disconnecting the bat-
tery, follow the instruction for safety reasons.
Prior to disconnecting the battery, read the battery dis-
connection cautions in
001 General Cautions and
Warnings.
Models with MS43 engine management: Allow at least
3 minutes to elapse after turning ignition ley to OFFpo-
sition before disconnecting battery. This willallow sum-
cient tinie to complete the DMJL (fuel tank pressure)
test
* Disconnecting the battery cables may erase fault codes
stored in ECM memory.
Always disconnect the negative
(-) battery cable first
and reconnect it last. Cover the battery post with an in-
sulating material whenever the cable is removed.
Do not disconnect battery, alternator or starter wires
while the engine is running.
0 Never reverse the battery cables. Even a momentary
wrong connection can damage the alternator or other
electrical components.
Do not depend on the color of insulation to tell battery
positive and negative cables apart. Label cables before
removing.
The slide-tilt sunroof may fail to function properly
after
disconnecting and reconnecting the battery. Reinitial-
ize sunroof as described in 540 Sunroof.

Instrument cluster
Instrument cluster uses large easy-to-read analog instru-
ments and is removable as a unit without removing the dash-
board. On-board computer and Check Control functions are
integrated into the instrument cluster displays.
Service Interval Display
Service Interval Display calculates vehicle service needs
based on current driving patterns, and indicates to the driver
when the car requires
service
On-board navigation
An integrated on-board navigation system, based on Global
Positioning System (GPS) technology, is optionally available
on
E39 cars. When installed, a multifunction monitor is includ-
ed in the center of the dash above the radio. in addition to dis-
playing navigation system information, this monitor accesses
On-Board Computerfunctions, audiosystem controls, mobile
phone dialling and memory, and automatic ventilation.
Park Distance Control (PDC)
Park Distance Control (PDC) is an optional system which
uses ultrasonic sensors in the rear bumper trim to warn the
driver of approaching too close to obstacles when parlting.
Central body electronics
E39 vehicles are equipped with an integrated complex of
electronic modules connected mostly via K-Bus. This system,
called central body electronics (ZKE
Ill), is primarily con-
trolled by the general module (GM
Ill). An overview of ZKE Ill
functions is found in 600 Electrical System-General. Details
of ZKE
Ill functioning is in the following repair groups:
- 512 Door Windows
* 515 Central Locking and Aniti-Theft
520 Seats
a 540 Sunroof
611 Wipers and Washers

I Door Windows
/ Anti-trap strip
Power window motors
The window motors are mounted on cable regulators. The
window motor control circuit consists of two wires for operat-
ing the motor in both directions.
The motors are activated by relays in the GM
Ill. The relays
provide either power or ground depending on the direction of
window travel. The GM
Ill controls the polarity based on a re-
quest to run the window from a window switch or a conve-
nience
openinglclosing signal.
Convenience openinglclosing
The GM Iii provides the convenience openlclose feature, pro-
viding control of the power windows (and sunroof) from out-
side the vehicle with the key in the driver's door lock. The FZV
(remote key) provides the same function for window opening
only.
Anti-trap protection is active during convenience closing from
the driver's door lock.
If the GM receives a request to operate convenience closing
or opening for more than
110 seconds, the function is deacti-
vated and a
fault code is stored.
Window anti-trap protection
4 A rubber pressure guard is located at the top edge of each
door frame. It consists of two contact strips that close when
subjected to pressure. When the contact strip closes (for ex-
ample, a hand is trapped between the top of the window and
the door frame), an anti-trap signal is sent to the GM
Ill. The
window immediately (within
10 milliseconds) reverses direc-
tion. This feature does not require
initialization.
The E39 pressure sensor finger guard has a resistance of 3
Kw and it is monitored for open circuits. When pressed, the
monitored resistance changes to
< 1 Kw. if anti-trap protection
becomes faulty the one touch window closing will not func-
tion.
Window anti-trap protection is
only active in the one touch
and convenience close modes of operation. If the window
switch is pulled and held, anti-trap protection will not function.
The anti-trap contact strip has a resistance of
1.2 K Ohm and
it is monitored for open circuits. Faults with the anti-trap sys-
tem will cancel the one touch feature requiring the window
switch be held to close the window.

position or when a speed signal of
4 mph is present at the
GM.
Remote entry (FZV)
< The €39 remote (keyless) entry system (FZV) uses a tiny ra-
dio transmitter in the vehicle key to
lock and unlock the doors
and the trunk by remote control. There are a number of other
features incorporated in FZV:
Locltinglunloclting of fuel filler lid
Selective unlocking of driver's door (as with key in lock)
Armingldisarming of DWA alarm system
Remote unlocking of
trunk lid or tailgate
Comfort opening of windows and sunroof
* Interior lighting activation
Panic mode alarm activation
* Models to 1999: Key incorporates LED. LED informs oper-
ator that an FZV signal is being transmitted. LED is also
useful indicator of key initialization status and lkey self-test.
Keys delivered with four different colored labels. This is
helpful to differentiate FZV keys during initialization,
pre.
venting possibility of misassigning key ID which would
change coded Key Memory functions.

/Central Locking and Anti-Theft
The General Module (GM) is connected to the FZV receiver
module (in left rear roof pillar) via K-Bus. Locking and unlock-
ing of doors, trunk or tailgate and convenience closing is car-
ried out by the GM subsystem controlling the door lock,
window and sunroof modules.
The accompanying schematic, Remote entry
(FZV) inputs
and outputs, illustrates the GM remote entry subsystem.

Sunroof
This repair group covers the slide-tilt sunroof assembly.
There are two types of sunroof panels available: steel
01
glass. Service procedures are different for each type.
Component locations, initialization, sunroof panel replace-
ment, and sunroof height adjustment are covered. Replace-
ment of the cable assembly or frame require that the
headliner be removed. Removal and repair of the sunroof as-
sembly and othercomponents inside the roof cavity is beyond
the scope of this manual.
When the sunroof is set to the vent position (rear of panel up),
the inside headliner moves rearward approximately
120 mm
(4.7 in) This provides cabin ventilation with less wind noise. A
water channel is incorporated into the sunroof assembly. It
automatically rises when the sunroof panel is in the vent posi-
tion and prevents water from entering the interior during brak-
ing.
Sunroof electronic controls, initializing
- Initialize the sunroof in the following situations:
Malfunctions
such as lack of one-touch function, lack of
comfort openinglclosing or lack of safety (anti-trapping)
features.
If sunroof motor has been removed and reinstalled.
If power supply to the sunroof has been interrupted.
If repairs have been performed on the slideltilt mechanism.
NOTE -
The initialization sequence is dependent on the software ver-
sion of
tlie sunroof module (in the sunroof drive unit).
I WARNING -
I There is no anti-trapping protection during initialization. I

Afler reaching end position
(A), keep switch pressed for
approximately
20 seconds longer.
- Normalization is complete when sunroof in lifl position (A)
moves briefly in direction of (6).
E39 models up to 311 998
- The characteristic curve for E39 models built up to 311998 is
learned automatically during operation. After normalization,
open and close sunroof once by pressing switch.
NOTE-
In the event of a faulty triggering of the anti-trap protection in
a specific position, the fault can be rectified
by moving over
the relevant position several times.
E39 models from 311 998
- Characteristic curve is learned manually in the following
steps:
Release switch after normalization for maximum of
5 sec-
onds.
Then hold down switch in sunroof raising position until sun-
roof has returned to closed position after a complete open-
ing operation.
Characteristic curve learning is complete, release sunroof
switch.
NOTE-
Carry out function check (tip function, anti-trap protection
and, if necessary, comfort function).
