How to Turn on the Ignition Without Starting the Engine on Newer BMW Models (BMW Diagnostic Mode)

[martinosvath]

The entire rest of the car is a riddle like this as well. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for sharing! I was having difficulty connecting my OBD 2 reader without starting the car. This allowed me to connect without the engine running and perform the functions on the OBD 2!

Thank you so much on how to do this . I was able to clear a code on my car after I replaced the part..I was trying so many different ways

In diagnostic mode can I turn headlights on? Wanting to aim the headlights in closed garage in freezing conditions, without starting the engine. 2013 320i. Thanks in advance.

I have the X4 2019 just push the start button once, however after that how do you shut it back off, I tried hitting the button again but the radio stays on even after I open and close the door, I then have to start the car then shut it off for it to turn all the way off

Will I still have to press the brake pedal or not please?

Hi is it normal to have check engine light on when you just turn on the ignition?

[PlumbPitiful]

Does it only work for BMWs or any push-button start car?

That is pretty cool Adam, I wonder if it will work in my Uncles M850xi convertible.
