BMW Window reset Anti-Trap function. How to fix loss of auto up/ down on your power windows electric

[@delanyhazell6866]

Thanks Mark I have a 1991 E88, the passenger front door glass stopped working at 50%position with the same warning light on dashboard . I followed your tutorial and it didn't work on 1st attempt or 2nd attempt but 3rd time lucky. I also held drivers front window switch up for 15/20 seconds then same switch took the drivers window down released and held button down for around 15/20 seconds repeated this action 3 times, all windows now working and the warning light has vanished. Thank you.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

So Good to hear. Well done. MRT

[@lplatz]

Thank you for this reset instruction. It was the 2nd I tried. You saved me countless hours and a possible trip into the shop.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Glad it helped

[@brandi6087]

Thank you for the tutorial! Easy fix without spending a bunch of money. Mine did that this morning for the first time. My stomach dropped because that dreaded ding noise!! My car has left me stranded a few times and that darn ding always happens about 5 seconds before it stalls out. It now gives me anxiety anytime I hear it. 🙃 😟

[@nicknick4156]

Genius!! Worked on my f31. The image of the window didnt flash up on the display, but still worked. My passenger window wouldnt go up automatically, but this quick fix rectified it. Cheers mate!!

[@kristof007]

Thanks for the video. Just wanted to say, my window was stuck down but when I hit up, it would move but not make any progress up. I tried this but what fixed it was pushing the up button several times in quick succession. Once it's out of the bottom position, it works fine up and down.

[@marsalmalinovsky9864]

Thank you for your help, did not expected to be so easy to fix 😅

[@LisaStarkey-p4e]

Totally worked. Thanks a bunch from the USA east coast!

[@JCKlinger]

Worked on my E70 thank you man!

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

No problem 👍

[@cyvox7433]

Thank you!! Worked on BMW e60

[@andrewmccann1887]

This worked on my e82. Thanks so so much.

[@ereiwaz]

Cheers mate absolute legend

[@HeavenlyOpinionated]

Thanks, worked like a glove for my 08 bmw 328i.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Glad it helped

[@Adam-nm8xv]

You Solved my problem !! Thanks, keep coming with this tips man 👍🏻

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Adam Adam 👍

[@igorsirbu1221]

Worked on i3, thank you!

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Wow i3 Awesome. Glad it helped

[@annmoran2960]

My 1 series coupe window rolls back down about 30% every time it reaches the up position. Can you help??

[@NeoSharrow]

same, idk what to do

[@b6makavelithugz]

Great video worked straight away

[@WIINNER1040]

What about if your driver side don’t go down at all and the anti trap keep showing up whenever it’s pressed

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

That sounds like you have another issue. Look at your tracks to make sure they are clear and free and then also the motor.

[@woahkudros]

Awesome! Thanks for the video

[@djmexim]

Worked a treat! Thanks. I replaced both rear window regulators on my 2008 E61 535d and followed this procedure exactly.

[@candycandy6525]

You are a true star 🌟 thank you so much.

[@adventpako]

Worked with 15 seconds on my e82

[@markhelllen]

Soo Good ...Glad it helped

[@brendaleeson7272]

My driver side window will not go up or down. Any suggestions other than taking it to the garage to pay a small fortune?

[@MSUTri]

Short, to the point, and tells me exactly what I need to know! Thanks, worked a treat on my E61!

[@the_homie_me]

I checked the relays, fuses, changed the little grey box on the door, the black thing with the window buttons, even changed the wire hardness for the door. Still no power at all on driver door.😢😢

[@robertasbalsaitis2787]

To me this trick worked with engane starting

[@23RAESER]

Didn’t work for me any other tips you can suggest for this

[@daniellepassmore7838]

Thank you so much for sharing this tutorial! Was at gas station and when I got back in the car my warning light for my power window anti-trap function came on and found it was my driver's that would not longer auto close. Looked in manual and no answer and was dreading a trip to the dealer for such a small stupid thing I knew would cost me my arm and leg! lol. I followed your instructions along with you in my car and voila! All systems back to normal and warning light is gone and my window is fixed, you are a gem!! Thank you again so much for sharing 😁

[@johnkollias6487]

I tried this and the window would not go back up

[@jimmy2Dpoint]

I'm working on a 2011 328i the passenger rear window won't go down or up front nighter switch. I have replaced motor regulatory and switches what's next?

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

I’d say a multi meter is next. Test to of voltage is getting to the parts and back track from there

[@jimmy2Dpoint]

I had a guy put his obd computer to the car. It said the rear window relay was bad. The only power window relay we can find is in the fues box and it's good anyone know of anymore window relays and where they are located

[@mikkolahtinen3993]

Thaks, it worked.

[@rugo841]

Thanks great video 😀

[@bryanmoreno5743]

thank you i was confused cus my fkin neighbor fucked wit my window but you resolved my problem big THANKS

[@bcsvgabor]

Big thanks! Very simple and useful video

[@OfficialRamseyMusicLLC]

On my driver's side rear window I have to constantly push button multiple times to get it all the way up or down, holding it down still won't work (and vice versa). Going to try this trick and see if it works. Will return momentarily. Praying this trick works like a charm because the warning ding and cluster light is so annoying. Lol.

[@jamesmason4323]

Bravo. Theres another way where you press the trip meter button for 17 seconds but this worked gd for me

[@kendrickridge2770]

Thanks l!!! Whatever he was doing didn’t work for me

[@lilmarc2919]

This didn’t work for my BMW 325 i and my windows are working perfectly fine I still have a code on the dash tho someone help me please !

[@doose911]

Thank you. I just had the error yesterday. My passenger side window. Did what you said, it worked!

[@kafwim]

Any advice for us? We have tried this reset as well as window initialisation via a scan tool. Replaced the reg as wire was snapped when we bought it. motor tested and working - goes up with direct power but only goes down not up when using switch. Scan tool says switch is fine and physical inspection of switch says its fine too. What have we missed? Loom (in door) looks fine too

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Sounds complicated. Do you have a multimeter? I would check the continuity of the wires to and from the switch and to see if power is leaving the switch when you are trying to wind the window up. Look at this video for how to do these checks. How to check car globes & globe holders and trace wires to fix faults and blown globes kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3mpi2asfqyMbpY

[@techstuff786]

I have same exact problem and literally dont know what the hell to do anymore!! I removed the door card and found the window was dropped down, I pulled the motor off thinking the regulator is faulty so i tried to manually push the window up with my hands and i got it up fine. The regulator was perfectly fine. So I then thought okay then the motor is gone faulty so swapped the motor out with 2 other motors from my other working cars but the same issue. The window will go down but it wont go up with the switch. I then thought okay lets change the switch then and did so but still same problem. I have even changed the wiring loom over from the other car and still the same issue!!!! Have tried insta window initialisation, same issue..... My passenger side works perfectly fine up down and auto up and down. the driver side down and auto down works but i cant go up or auto up. What the hell is wrong with it ? :( Please help im literally losing hair over this!

[@katieclarke2598]

I have bmw 1 series 06 tried this and it didn’t work don’t suppose you have any tips obviously will have to take it to the garage at some point lol

[@esadaf]

Thanks!!!

[@vikingshpvs465]

And what if it don't go donw like that. Mi just judders down, I have to press it 5 times to get it down.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

If it is juddering then you might have a broken window regulator MRT

[@budadi]

Well it worked fine on my 330i touring - 06. Thanks man.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

budadi 👍

[@thomastague9359]

Didnt work for me. My warning comes on randomly, and when driving the window will open on it's own up and down twice when the light pops on. After it closes, the light goes away. 20 minutes later happens again. Also noticed that when closing or opening my sunroof shade the window will do the anti trap again and open and close twice. Regulator or switch problem? Any ideas? Alternator makes an odd noise and when I aggressively move the window switch up and down the car will idle much rougher

[@Veyronko]

Comfort closing on the passenger side didn't work. After trying this I can't open the window at all anymore (doesn't matter if I use the driver’s controller or on the door).

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Sounds like you have a different issue. At least you know that it isn’t the switch if it is the same on both. I’d be looking at the motor to start with.

[@Skinandbrowsco]

How to I remove the dash light for anti trap

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

This video shows the procedure to reset. That will remove the light. MRT

[@InToTheBackroads]

My rear windows dont go down at all but you can hear the motors working

[@tylermcbride2807]

I unplugged my motor to keep the window up as I'm not paying almost $200 for a new motor and I get that error in my dash. However this procedure doesn't work, I even tried to clear the codes with my BlueDriver scanner it comes right back. Unsure how to fix this?

[@sanneuang-keo7797]

my wont come down at all after a dead battery

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Get your battery fully charged. Then Try this. How to fix many BMW electrical Gremlins. Battery Reset Also Rolls Royce & Mini kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZqcpniCjK-SgM0

[@6576and1974]

My 2 back windows won’t roll up unless I click up from the driver side at the same time someone in the back clicks up from the back window . So unless front control and back control are pulled up at same time for that specific window.

[@ServiceDeals]

Many thanks mate,it works in my BMW e92👍👍👍👍( had this problem after battery and alternator replacement)

[@Inteva]

I can't get mine to work even when I hold it down for 15 seconds and up for 15 seconds.

[@yvonnemunyan]

Hi, this didn’t work for me

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Yes there can be other things such as mechanical failure that a reset won’t fix. Good luck w your repair.

[@jasoncox6379]

Amazing video. Worked first time on our 118d. Thank you so much

[@jose.horlandy]

hello friend, I need help, the windows of my BMW e90 2007 stopped working in an instant, only the co-pilot works, it goes up and down perfectly, the other 3 do not go up they do not go down, I thought it was a problem with the switches and bought all 3 new, also check the fuses and they are good, with the key they all go up and down normal, but the switches are not working even though they light up when the car is started, try to reset by holding down the switches and it does not respond. I don't know what to do :( I really appreciate your help. Thank you very much.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Sounds like you need to replace a module. Either gm3 or 5

[@jose.horlandy]

@@Marksreviewsandtutorials really? :( How much can that module cost approximately?

[@CleanYourRide]

Worked on the drivers door of my 2018 M2, thank you so much for your video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@xsinasix]

My rear right window doesnt go all the way down , is that an error or it was in an accident

Dosen't work on my 06 325i. Both rear Windows will not go down and light on. Relay clicks under dash but no response at windows. Rear window child lock on driver arm rest lights up and off but makes no difference in rear. Any ideas???

[@fernie988]

Lorne Bruce that's exact what I have 2006 325i but it's only the back passenger window

[@noobcakes752]

Same with my 06 325i. Regulators were broken. Wasn’t worth the cost to fix them so I just unplugged the motor, unplugged battery from trunk for 2 hours, then light is gone. Just don’t press the window switch and the light won’t come on again

[@capableman4277]

Nothing on the drivers side works . The passenger side only comes up is short increments

[@BagheeraTube]

I did this process on all my windows, but the warning is still there and keeps on peeping, it is so annoying. All windows works fine now but warning is still there. I had problem with both back windows on my E91.

[@russiandrivers9986]

Does anyone know how to code this stupid warning out? I don't care about this useless function. I just don't want to be annoyed by the warning every 15 seconds.

[@coachrandalljones]

Thank you!

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

You're welcome!

[@marcusscullin4832]

Thanks very much for this quick fix 😁

[@bighawk23]

The steps above worked a little different to my 09 e60. Rear right window. Ignition on, Antitrap error selected in I drive in the info section. Rolled window all the way down (in increments) Release when at the bottom. Then fully press and hold for 17 seconds. Then immediately press and hold up, pressing up didn't do anything on on first try then I pressed again. Hold and the window should go all the way up to closed (keep holding) the window should return to fully open and then back to the top. Release button, clear I drive and then it worked perfect. 1 and a half years of listening to that F-ing beeping everyone I get in the car, finally finished! Hope this helped someone who like me tried every KZbin tutorial but to no avail.

[@mysticchords]

My anti-trap warning light has been coming on.. I went through the reset steps and the windows are working fine but still the warning light is coming on and the RPM counter is fluctuating erratically also.. This started happening the same time as the anti-trap warning light came on.. Any insights as to what i should do.. Thanks.. It's a 54 plate BMW 1 series I have.

[@powerhousemethod]

My problem is I have no power on the driver side windows. I recently got a new battery and amplifier installed.

[@clevontimms24]

WORKED! 2006 325i even with back window stopping every 2 inches as it went down. And hesitating as it went back up. Good luck on this very ANNOYING feature

[@stronghikmah530]

But this doesn’t work for e60 rear passenger nor when fully down

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Is your problem something that a reset will fix?

[@alexandruvarga871]

Anyone can help? I do all the stuff, the window work auto up, down, but my error dont dissapear, every 30 sec comes, but dont stay hold into control messages... Help?

[@iharfrydrykh7185]

Thanks a lot, bro! It really helped me 😊

[@MehrLovin]

Great, great video. Thank you this fixed my right, rear E90 window and cleared the CC ID 259 code on the dash. It does auto up and auto down properly now.

[@rockyboy1977]

Thank you....I have just fixed my window!

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Well done Katie

[@costyblondu24]

In my case the window is going down just about 10cm and then I have to press again and again for about 5 times to go down and this technique is not working in my case 😕

[@43dyoung]

Great info. This tip also worked on my 2015 BMW 2 series.

[@LexDreyer]

thank you, it worked

[@christianfernandez837]

on god this worked on mine tooo thank you 😊

[@Bebopopotamus]

My window won't roll all the way up or down at once, even if I hold the switch. It stops and must be held down again maybe 4 times total.

[@gnargnarpogo]

I got this window error on my 128i and after 1 week not driving it the error was gone and window functions restored. I did not disconnect the battery. Im sure the fix in video can work but there is also some automatic reset in the cars.

[@NC-zl3yp]

I has the same Problem and I reset it and the windows work fine now But the anti trap error from the dash don’t disappear What can I do ?

[@cellgamingg1329]

My window went down and now won’t go back up

[@kaystar3434]

Thank you for this video. I had no idea what this warning light meant because it is not on the list that BMW has on their website. I did notice when I got out of my car that my window was down, and I couldn't get it back up. I had no idea that the warning light and my window had any correlation. I will give this a try.

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Glad it helped

[@javierperez644]

My light came on last night for a few secs and went away, shoukd i be concerned

[@Tony-nl6pf]

My window is broken in the closed position. I don't care but this stupid light keeps turning on.

[@robajzofficial]

any tips for me? I own f36 430xd and my rear right widnow not working.

[@Richard-Bullock]

I have a 2011 e90 320d Efficient Dynamics, and the auto close on the driver's door window only works with the engine running. Is that normal?

[@rabkitching2969]

My back windows wont work checked fuses and I take it that's y the light is on dash any ideas guys

[@LandenG23]

Any idea if this works on an e46? Mine is in the shop right now so I can't test it myself.

[@DanMarcus]

doesn't work for my 2007 bmw 750 li

[@philippdarnhofer7640]

It also worked on my Seat Ibiza 6j

[@Marksreviewsandtutorials]

Hi please help mine was replaced by previous owner... However the drivers side controls are going in the wrong direction. I tried the fix it never worked.

[@jason.aldridge5004]

You must have it solved by now I'd say somewhere the wire was crossed or plugs put in wrong way. It's just simple to swap.bu normally connecter only go in one way Un less forced or he pulled out the pins an put bak wrong . Or if possible the switch was put in upside down if there single

[@michaelmedel9250]
