Fzv BMW 530I 2003 E39 Central Body Electronics ZKE Manual

Power Window Motors: The window motors are mounted on the cable regulators. The
window motor control circuit consists of two wires for operating the motor in both direc-
tions.
The motors are activated by relays in the GM of door
modules (front doors). The relays provide either power
or ground depending on the direction of window travel.
The GM controls the polarity of the motor based on a
request to run the window (window switch,
Convenience Opening/ Closing).
The windows are run to the limit stops which is detect-
ed by an amperage increase in the control circuit.
Additionally, the window run cycle is limited to a 6-8
second duration if in case the amperage increase is not
detected or there is a malfunction with the regulator.
Window Motor Limit Stop Function: If the windows are run up and down continuously
a limit stop function is activated to prevent the window motors from overheating. The GM
monitors the number of times the window motors are activated. Each cycle is counted and
stored in memory.
If the repetitive window activation (up/down) exceeds one minute, the GM deactivates the
internal relays and disregards any further input requests. The GM provides motor activation
after a short duration but not for the full one minute monitoring cycle. Over time, the GM
slowly reverses the stored count of activation until the stored number equals 0.
Convenience Opening/Closing: The GM provides the convenience open/close feature
providing control of the power windows (and sunroof) from outside the vehicle with the key
in the driver’s door lock cylinder. The FZV provides the same function for the opening only.
• The anti-trap feature is active during convenience closing from the driver’s door lock.
• The convenience open feature provides outside activation of the windows and sunroof
in the same manner.
• If the GM receives a request to operate convenience close or open for more than 110
seconds, the function is deactivated and a fault code is stored.
• The Car Memory Feature can activate and deactivate the Convenience Open Feature
from the FZV’s control.

Interior Lighting
Purpose of the System
The GM controls the interior lighting automatical-
ly with the status change of several monitored
inputs. The lighting can also be manually con-
trolled using the interior light switch.
In addition to the various time controls, the inte-
rior lights are also subject to the 16 minute shut
down of the GM (consumer protection).
Principle of Operation
The interior light switch is a push button switch that will carry out the opposite command
of the current status of the lights. (ie: if the interior lights are currently on, pushing the but-
ton will switch the lights off.)
• If the interior lights are switched “ON” by the button with the ignition switched ON, the
interior lights will remain on until they are switched off by the button.
• If the interior lights are switched “ON” when the ignition is switched OFF, the lights will
remain on for 16 minutes (consumer cutout).
• Pressing the interior light button for longer than three seconds will switch the lights to
continuous off. This feature is intended for workshop use.
Pressing the button again will
return the lights to the normal operational status.
• Locking the vehicle from the outside will immediately switch off the interior lights.
The ON/OFF conditions for the interior lights in the automatic mode are as follows:
ON Conditions
• Door Open.
• Switching off ignition after exterior
lights have been switched off.
• MRS Control Module crash input.
• Unlocking with FZV or pressing FZV
lock button when the vehicle is
already locked (interior search fution).

OFF Conditions
• All doors closed with ignition on.
• All doors closed with ignition off after 20
seconds.
• 20 seconds after switching off ignition with
lights off.
• 8 seconds after remote control activation.
• 16 minutes with door(s) open.
• When doors are locked.
