The ZKE III system was introduced on the E38 and is used in the E39 and E53. Most of the
functions operate the same on these vehicles with minor changes and added features to
the system.
ZKE III represents the combination of Body Electronics functions into one central control
module, the General Module (GM).

Central Body Electronics ZKE III
The following is an overview of new or changed features found on the E53 ZKE III variant:
• Passenger’s door module is incorporated into the passenger’s door switchblock.
• Sunroof module (SHD) is located on the P -Bus.
• The Central Locking system uses a door lock actuators with hall effect sensors.
• The GM III is responsible for the Key Memory feature.
The E53 ZKE III system continues to be a modular system consisting of the following:
•General Module III = Main controller for ZKE functions
•PM - SB/FT = Driver’s door switch block and door module
•PM - SB/BT =Passenger’s door module/Window switch
•PM - SHD =Sunroof module
•PM - SM =Seat/Mirror/ Steering Column memory module
•AIC = Rain Sensor (if equipped)
All of these modules communicate over the “K-Bus and P-Bus” for signaling purposes and
diagnosis.

Rear Window Wiper/Washer System (E39 Sport Wagon and E53): The system is
included in the scope of ZKE however is not controlled directly by the GM. The control elec-
tronics are integrated into the rear wiper motor assembly. The control electronics contains
two hall sensors, one for monitoring park position and other for the end stop, or to signal
reverse direction of the wiper motor. The control electronics are connected to the vehicle
electrical system via a single seven pin connector.
The rear wiper system is operator controlled
through the wiper stalk switch providing the fol-
lowing functions:
• Intermittent rear window wiping
• Programmed rear window wiping interval
• Operation of the rear window washer
Pressing the wiper stalk forward to the first detent activates the rear wiper in the intermit-
tent mode
. The timed interval is approximately 7-12 seconds. The full sweep and park posi-
tions are recognized by the two hall sensors on the motor gear assembly. If the wiper is
switched OFF, the wiper blade will return to the park position.
The programmed wiper interval procedure is as follows:
• Briefly switch the rear wiper ON/OFF
• Wait the desired interval time
• Switch the rear wiper ON again
• The OFF time will be the programmed interval - up to approx. 30 seconds
Rear window washing is activated by pressing the wiper stalk switch to the full forward
position.
The washer pump operates followed by two full wiping cycles. The wipers will then
switch to the intermittent wiping mode. Additionally, the system automatically controls the
following safety and convenience features:
• Wiper interrupt with the rear glass opened
• Wiping interrupt with a blocked wiper arm
• Continuous wiping when the vehicle is shifted into reverse
When the transmission is shifted into reverse, the wiper will switch to continuous operation
until the vehicle is shifted out of reverse. This signal (high) is provided by the LCM III when
it activates the back up lights.

• If the ignition switch is turned off with the wiper switch in the intermittent position, the rain
sensor will only become active after the ignition is switched back on and one of the fol-
lowing occurs:
- The stalk switch is moved from the intermittent position and then back.
- The knurled wheel setting is adjusted.
- or the wash function is activated.
The reasoning behind this switching strategy is to have the driver make a conscious deci-
sion to activate the system themselves.
Rain Sensor Control Module Adaptation
The rain sensor control module adapts to the optics system environment as follows:
Windshield Aging:As the vehicle ages the possibility of stone chipping in the rain sensors
monitoring area may occur which will cause a loss of light in the optics system.
The control module adapts for loss of light based on the intensity of the detected infra red
light with a cleared windshield (wiper motor park signal). Therefore, the rain sensors func-
tion is not adversely affected due to windshield aging.
Dirty Windows:The rain sensor adaptation reacts less sensitively to a dirty windshield
(dirt, road salt, wax residue) after a completed wipe cycle. A dirty windshield has a film on
it that diminishes the ability of the infra red to refract into present water droplets. This caus-
es a delay in the rain sensor detection capabilities which lengthens the time intervals on an
intermittent wipe.
Windshield Wiper System Failsafe Operation
The GM provides failsafe operation of the wiper system if faults are detected with any of the
following input signals:

Workshop Hints
Windshield Wiper Blade Service
To access the wiper blades for cleaning or replacement,the following is required:
• With the ignition switched on (KL15), switch the wiper stalk to the “Intermittant” wipe
mode.
• Switch the ignition off when the wiper arms are in the “upright” position.
CAUTION: Do not allow the wiper arm to spring back against the windshield, glass
breakage will occur!
Rain Sensor Equipped Vehicles
Make sure the wiper blades are in perfect condition. Only use window cleaner to clean the
windows. Dirty windows can cause the Rain Sensor control module to set a fault
due to the end limits of its adaptation abilities.
Rear Window/Wiper
The wiper arm and driveshaft are connected by
splines.
Special tool #61 1 320 is required to hold the drive
shaft in the park position prior to installing the wiper
arm on to the drive shaft.
Windshield Wiper System Diagnosis
The GM monitors the following circuits:
• Wiper Potentiometer • Wiper Motor • Terminal 30
• Double Relay • Windshield Washer Pump
Note: The wiper/washer operation will be interrupted during engine cranking. The GM pro-
vides this “unload” feature to preserve the battery voltage for the starter motor.

System Components
- with the Principle of Operation
Driver’s Door Lock: The lock/unlock signals
from the driver’s door lock cylinder are input to
the driver’s door module from the two micro
switches on the lock cylinder. The driver’s door
switchblock module carries out the locking func-
tion of the driver’s door.
The windows and sunroof can be closed or
opened by holding the key in the lock/unlock
position (convenience closing/opening feature).
The signal to lock the remaining doors and fuel filler flap is passed over the P-Bus to the
GM III and passenger’s door module. The locking of the passenger’s door is carried out by
the passengers door module. The rear doors, luggage comparment and fuel flap locking
are carried out directly by the GM III. All four doors will be pulled into the double lock posi-
tion when locking from the driver’s door.
The control of the actuators in the front doors is through final stages in the door modules.
The rear doors, trunk and fuel filler flap actuators are controlled by internal relays in the GM
III. When locked, the GM III will not carry out any opening commands from the central lock-
ing button or luggage comparment interior release button.
Luggage Compartment Lock Cylinder (except E53/E39 Sport Wagon): The vehicle
can be locked/ unlocked (prior to 2000 MY) from the luggage compartment lock cylinder.
The lock/unlock micro switch inputs are processed in the GM III and the locking commands
are carried out.
The signal is passed over the P-Bus to the
door modules to lock/unlock the front
doors and the GM III locks the rear doors
and fuel filler flap.
All door actuators are placed in the double
lock position. Removing the key in the hor-
izontal position will activate the valet mode
and prevent the valet key from opening the
luggage comparment.

Door Contact Hall Sensor: Also included in the drivers door actuator is a third hall effect
sensor. This sensor signals the door open/closed status to the GM. This sensor replaces
the door jamb mechanical switch of previous systems. The rotary latch plate position acti-
vates the door contact hall sensor.
• When the door latch is closed, current flow
through the sensor is <5 mA (0).
• When the door is open, current flow through
the sensor is >12 mA (1).
The passenger side front door and both rear
door lock actuators only include this hall effect
sensor (hall sensor 3). Hall sensors 1 & 2 are
not required.
Trunk Lid Close (E38 SCA)/Tailgate and Window Latching System (E39/E53): The
tailgate/trunk lid is opened by any of the three input signals: FZV, remote button and unlock
switch pad (push - trunk lock cylinder E38).
These inputs request the rear latch
actuator control circuit to be
switched to ground (exception:
presence of road speed signal,
key on with FZV request.)
The rear latch actuator unlatches
the mechanism and signals the
GM of the open latch status. The
SCA motor rotates the striker
180
O. Feed-back signalling stops
the motor. E38 - When closing the
trunk lid the trunk latch micro-
switch signals the GM to activate
the SCA motor to pull the lid
down.
Rear window unlatching is requested by the rear window switch ground signal. This signal
initiates activation of the rear window actuator relay control circuit which activates the rear
window actuator. The actuator unlatches the mechanism opening the window. The latch
simultaneously provides an open window signal for the rear window wiper motor module
as well as an interior light on request (via the wiper module).

• Locking/unlocking of doors, luggage compartment (tailgate), fuel filler lid.
• Selective unlocking of driver’s door (same as with key in the lock cylinder).
• Arming/disarming of DWA alarm system.
• Remote unlocking of the trunk (tailgate) only.
• Comfort opening of windows and sunroof.
• Interior lighting activation (search mode).
• Panic mode alarm activation.
• Changing code signals - coded signals from transmitter change with every operation.
• Automatic correction for up to 1000 erroneous activation signals.
• Transmitter initialization procedure - including up to four key operation and Key Memory.
• Replacement batteries.
• Low transmitter battery in vehicles equipped with Check Control.

The Remote Entry System incorporated minor changes since the original introduction
which includes:
• The control electronics are incorporated into the GM III.
• The antenna is incorporated into the rear window lower heater grid.
• The remote key receiver is installed in the left “C” pillar. The receiver produces a digital
signal based on the transmitter command and sends it to the GM for processing. The GM
then carries out all remote entry operations either directly or through the door modules
for the front doors. The frequency at which the key transmits the radio signal to the ant-
enna amplifier is 315 MHz.
Vehicle/Key Memory
The Vehicle/Key Memory feature provides the flexibility of allowing the owner to customize
certain 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).
Vehicle & Key memory is marketed as a combined feature but is actually two separate func-
tions of the select vehicle control systems.
