67 62... Notes on initializing power windows
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW 550i GT, 2012 BMW 550i GT, 2011 BMW 550i GT, and 2010 BMW 550i GT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Initialisation is performed on the power window switch of the relevant door.
Initialisation comprises:
With normalisation, the mechanical end stops of the power window regulator are recorded and stored.
The characteristic curve is learnt immediately after normalisation.
When the characteristic curve is learnt, the mechanical closing forces of the power windows are recorded and stored for correct operation of the anti-trapping mechanism.
Initialisation, i.e. normalisation and learning of characteristic curve, is performed in a continuous operation.
Initialisation comprises:
- Normalisation
- Learning characteristic curve

Initialisation, i.e. normalisation and learning of characteristic curve, is performed in a continuous operation.
NOTE:
An initialisation must be performed:
- In the event of malfunctions, e.g. no one-touch function, no opening or no convenience function possible.
- After the power windows drive or door module has been replaced.
- After work is carried out on the power windows mechanism.
WARNING:
There is no anti-trap mechanism during initialisation.
Necessary preliminary work
- Vehicle stationary
- Sufficient battery voltage available / connect charger if necessary
- Terminal "15" switched on
- All doors closed
- F12 up to 02/2012 soft top open, from 03/2012 soft top closed
Operating procedure for initialisation (manual):
Deleting the initialisation:
- Move side window into lower end position.
- Press and hold switch in "Open one-touch function" position (second switch position) for between 15 and 25 seconds.
NOTE:
Deletion of initialisation was successful if toll function and anti-trap mechanism have been rendered inoperative.
Performing initialisation:
- Move side window to upper end position
- Pull and hold switch in "Close one-touch function" (2nd switch position) during the entire process.
NOTE:
Re-initialisation was successful if toll function and anti-trap mechanism function flawlessly.
Alternatively, initialisation of the power window regulation can also be carried out via the Service function in ISTA.
