low beam BMW M5 1999 E39 Central Body Electronics ZKE Manual

Anti-Theft (DWA) System
Purpose of the System
The DWA alarm system offers vehicle protection by monitoring the doors, hood, interior,
luggage compartment and vehicle tilting. When activated, DWA deters theft by sounding
an alarm siren for 30 seconds, flashing the low beam headlights (high beam on Xenon
equipped models) and four way flashers for 5 minutes.
The control electronics for DWA are integrated in the general module. The DWA - LED
indicator is located in the rear view mirror (E38 in the top center IHKA grille).
The system is “armed/disarmed” from the driver’s door lock cylinder, remote transmitter or
luggage compartment lock cylinder. The alarm is immediately deactivated when disarmed
with the key in the driver’s door lock cylinder (may be deactivated in Conversion) or remote
transmitter.
The GM utilizes existing components and/or circuits as part of the DWA system:
• Door latch switch/sensor contacts (door open/closed).
• Trunk lid switch contact (monitored for closed trunk).
• Trunk lock key position switch (located on the trunk lock, this switch signal prevents
DWA from activating if armed when the trunk is opened with the key).
• Hood switch (monitored for closed hood, located under the hood).
• DWA status LED (part of rear view mirror).
The additional components required are:
• Interior Sensor • DWA Siren • Tilt sensor
