INTRODUCTION
The Central Body Electronics (ZKE III) equipped on the X5 includes the following sub-
systems under the total scope of its control:
• Windshield/tailgate wiping/washing,
including windshield rain sensor (AIC).
• Interior lighting
• Central locking
• Keyless entry
• Tailgate release
The following is an overview of new or changed features found on the X5 ZKE III variant.
• Passenger’s door module is now incorporated into the passenger’s door switchblock
module.
• Sunroof module (SHD) located on the K bus.
• The Central Locking system uses a new style door lock actuator with hall effect sensors
similar to E46.
• The GM III is responsible for the Key Memory feature. It provides the added
convenience of identifying users of the vehicle. Whenever the vehicle is locked or
unlocked via the FZV keyless entry system, a unique key identification signal (key
number) is transmitted to the General Module.
The key identification signal alerts the GM to communicate with other control systems
over the K Bus to store (when locked) or reset (when unlocked) certain driver adjustable
settings for the driver using the specific key. The GM also resets certain driver
adjustable settings that it controls directly.
• Power windows/Sunroof
• DWA alarm system
• Mirror - adjustment/memory/heating
• Seat adjustment/memory
• Steering column adjustment/memory
• Consumer cut-off/sleep mode

Car Memory / Key Memory
The Car/Key Memory feature provides the flexibility of allowing the owner to customize cer-
tain functions of select vehicle systems and automatically identifies users of the vehicle by
a key identification signal provided by the remote keyless entry system (FZV).
Car & Key memory is marketed as a combined feature but is actually two separate func-
tions of the select vehicle control systems.
Car Memory: The owner is provided with a list of available system functions that can be
customized to their liking. Prior to delivery, the DIS or MoDiC is used to encode the
owner’s chosen selections into the appropriate control modules.
These choices become a permanent function of the control module and can only be
changed by re-encoding with the DIS or MoDiC at a BMW Center.
This feature has been available for some time via the ZCS Conversion Feature but has never
been fully utilized or officially presented to the vehicle owner as a feature of their vehicle.

Key Memory: This feature provides the added convenience of identifying users of the vehi-
cle whenever a lock or unlocked signal is generated via the individual FZV keys. A maxi-
mum of four FZV keys can be used with the Key Memory feature.
Each of the four keys generate a unique key identification signal (key number) that is trans-
mitted simultaneously with the lock/unlock signals to the General Module. Key Memory
does not respond to Lock/Unlock requests from the drivers door lock.
Mostof the key memory functions require the vehicle be configured using the “KEY MEM-
ORY” function of the DIS or MoDiC. However, there are a few features that store settings
automatically without configuration such as IHKA blower speed and temp setting.
The key ID signal alerts the GM V to communicate with select control systems over the K
Bus to store (when locked) or reset (when unlocked) certain driver adjustable settings.
There are features that function as both a Car & Key Memory feature.
Example; the Automatic Seat Adjustment feature is encoded as a Car Memory Function
with the following possibilities:
• when unlocking,
• when opening a door after unlocking
• or not active at all.
If active, the seat positions are stored and reactivated by the Key Memory function for indi-
vidual users of the car.

INTERIOR LIGHTING
The GM controls the interior lighting automatically with the status change of several moni-
tored inputs. The lighting can also be manually controlled using the interior light switch.
COMPONENTS
DOOR CONTACTS: The door lock actuators contain a hall effect sensor for the purpose
of monitoring door open/closed status (hall sensor 3 in the driver's door actuator). The hall
effect sensor is located directly behind the rotary latch plate encased in the actuator. The
sensor is activated by the rotary latch plate's position. A change in current flow informs the
General module when a door is opened or closed.
Front seat interior/map light unit: The overhead
front seat interior/map light unit contains a single
main interior light. The light is controlled by the GM
automatically or by momentarily pressing interior
light switch located on the light assembly. The
switch provides a momentary ground signal that the
GM recognizes as a request to either turn the light
on (if off) or turn the light off (if on).
If the switch is held for more than 3 seconds, the GM interprets the continuous ground sig-
nal as a request to turn the interior light circuit off for the Workshop Mode as on previous
systems. The workshop mode is stored in memory and will not come back on even if the
GM is removed from it's power supply and reconnected. The switch must be pressed to
turn the lights back on.
There are two reading/map lights also located in the assembly. Each map light is mechan-
ically controlled by depressing it's corresponding on/off switch. The power supply for the
map lights is supplied by the GM through the Consumer Cut Off circuit.
Rear seat interior light unit:
In the center headliner is an additional interior/reading light unit. This unit contains an inte-
rior light that is controlled with the front interior light and a mechanically switched reading
light on the consumer cut off circuit.
Front footwell lights:
In each front footwell, there is also a courtesy light. These lights are only operated when
the GM provides power to the interior lighting circuit.

DRIVER’S SEAT MEMORY FUNCTION
As with previous systems, the seat memory feature of the SM stores three seat positions
for recall. The positions are stored in a non-volatile memory preventing loss of positions if
in case the SM or the battery is disconnected.
The additional buttons on the SM (M) pro-
vide activation of recording memory position
and (1-2-3) for storing or recalling a specific
seat setting.
Storing current seat position:
• Seat in desired position,
• Ignition switch in KL R,
• Press the M button until it illuminates
• Within 7 seconds press the 1,2 or 3 but-
ton to store.
The stored position can be recalled at any time by pressing the appropriate memory loca-
tion button (1-2-3).
MEMORY RECALL MODES OF OPERATION
Depending on current SM input signals via K-Bus, the memory recall operates in two dis-
tinctly different modes:
• One-touch mode (TTB),
• or press and hold mode of operation (DTB).
If the following input signal status is current, the SM resets the seat position by a momen-
tary“one touch”of the selected memory button.
• Ignition switch off with the driver’s door open, or,
• KL R on, door open or closed
If the following input signal status is current, the SM resets the seat position by a continu-
ous ”press and hold”of the selected memory button.
• Ignition switch off with the driver’s door closed
• KL 15 on, door open or closed.

DRIVER’S SEAT MEMORY (CAR Memory Influence)
The PM-SM can be encoded to recall a specific seat position for a vehicle user when the
GM signals the SM to automatically recall stored positions separate of the 1-2-3 button
selections.
This feature is encoded through the car memory function and activated by the key memo-
ry function. The PM-SM will monitor the seat position and store it in another area of it's
memory when the vehicle is locked with the remote keyless entry system. The GM sends
a request to memorize the seat position and store it for FZV key user 1,2,3 or 4.
If another user of the vehicle changes the seat position the PM-SM restores the memory
position the next time the specific key is used to unlock the vehicle.
This feature can be further modified to activate the position recall based on the owner's
selected activation scenario, for example: The owner can choose to :
• Disable this feature,
• Initiate memory recall when the unlock signal is initially sent before a door is opened.
• Initiate memory recall when the unlock signal is sent but only when the driver's door is
opened.
See Car Memory Key Memory for additional information.
POWER SEAT DIAGNOSIS
The PM-SM communicates with the DIS or MoDiC via the K bus - instrument cluster gate-
way - to the P-bus. The PM-SM monitors the seat motors and circuits as well as it's inter-
nal operation. Any detected faults are stored in the PM-SM fault memory and are called up
when diagnosing the system with the Fault Symptom diagnostic plan.
The PM-SM also provides status display to the DIS of its input and output control signals
as well as component activation.

SEAT OPERATION
Each motor for seat adjustment contains a micro-processor (called a Ripple Counter) that
receives a digital signal from the seat control module for motor activation. The motors are
connected to KL 30 and KL 31 and respond to the signals generated by the seat module
when seat movement is requested. The seat adjustment switch provides ground input sig-
nals to the module when seat movement is desired. The module processes these input sig-
nals and sends output signals to the seat motor processors. The seat motor processors
activate the motors and the seat moves to the desired point.
The circuitry of the Ripple Counter detects the motor activation current. As the armature
segments of the motor rotate passed the brushes, the current flow rises and falls produc-
ing a ripple effect. The peaks of these ripples are counted and stored in the Ripple Counter
module. The memory function of the seat module uses this ripple count instead of feed-
back potentiometers to memorize and recall seat positions.
RIPPLE COUNT RECOGNITION
When the seat is installed and the battery is connected, the ripple counter uses the initial
position of the motors as the “Zero Position”. Any movement from this point is counted as
“+” or “-” pulses as the motors move in either direction. The pulse position of the motors
is stored in the seat module, in an EEPROM, before the ZKE goes into its “Sleep Mode”.
This prevents the position recognition from being lost. If the battery is disconnected before
the 16 minute sleep mode activation, the memory positions of the seat will be lost and
reprogramming will be required.

STEERING COLUMN OPERATION
The adjustable steering column is similar to the E38 in components, mechan-
ical linkages and electrical operation. The steering column adjusting switch is
mounted on the left side of the steering column and provides for four directions
of column movement.
The motors for tilt and length also employ ripple counter modules for motor control and
memory recall. The control electronics for the steering column are integrated into the seat
module. The steering column switch inputs are processed by the seat module and the out-
put signals are sent to the steering column ripple counter modules for motor activation.
