Old school mechanic here, cool video. Those are one of the many tricks when replacing your battery on a BMW without registering the battery. Another trick, is when you replace your AMG battery with another AMG battery. All you gotta do is install the Negative terminal first, wait 10sec. Then install the positive terminal, wait 10sec. Then start car, the car will start. Then reset time on your vehicle and everything go back to normal. Like I said that's one of the tricks to do when changing out your battery, with out registering your battery. But overall very helpful video.

Thank you bro, I was stranded for a good 8 hours with the car not wanting to start. Thanks once again!

[bryanb]

Thank you. You are the best. I've been fighting this thing for 2 days! The only one to give me useful information and not try to sell me something. You are a godsend!

In 2025, Costco equal replacement battery with 3 yr warranty was $279, 302 with tax. I’m in TX, BMW dealer quote for replace/register was $570, so this lady saved herself $270, with do it yourself YouTube videos. Thanks YT!

Thank you @Welding and stuff!! Great fix on my 2006 325i. Im in california and the dealer wanted 190 just to install the new battery I already purchased for 210.00 This has been so frustrating but I love the car!! Back in the drivers seat again and MOBILE!!! tytytyty huge hugs and a big shout out to you for sharing your video!

Worked perfectly, but i did not have to disconnect that blue piece... the car started just fine on the first time immediately after i installed the battery🤷.

Great video!...spot on for every step!!!
THANK YOU!!!

[edsoto]

This was truly helpful you saved me a trip to the dealership. God bless!

[geom-dxjm]

Thanks for the great video. It helped me out. I wish all videos were like that. Taking care of business.

I just changed the battery in my E39 a month ago, back in 2000-2003 they did not put all those annoying, nonsense sensors in their cars. Thanks for sharing, good to know there are shortcuts for these problems. Keep it up!

[LifeOfPabs]

this will get you out of a pickle but registering the battery will let the computer know how to properly charge the new battery. not doing so will just make your battery life shorter and possibly have other battery-related issues down the road

[kellymills]

Oh my, I've been looking at videos all day. Your's is the first one that said anything about the little blue sensor.
I'm fixing to try it right now and see if this will let me start my car

[AquaStevae]

Thanks for the vid. I put a new digital cluster in my E92, and the batter registration was deleted or something, because it started acting like it did before I registered the battery several months ago. Inpa wouldn't work with this new digital cluster, so I had to disconnect that sensor, and it seems to be working better. So thanks for the vid. Cheers!

[joshmiller]

Bro you saved my life forever will be grateful for this video you got a like from me 👍🏻

BMW dealer last summer charged me $1100. To change a battery. One year from that new battery and now dropping in another new one next week. This was very helpful. I’ll let you know how it goes with the sensor wire disconnect on my 06/325i

[brandonirvin]

im about to buy a replacement battery 07 530i. The wire is ibs, i think all it does is moniter the battery and lets you know if draining due to anything or when it’s low. so you’re battery may die without the car letting you know. too many repairs up til now, so i thank you, helps me and think im doing the same

[Mdskillssah]

Yep you’re 💯% right!!!
I’ve done this too almost 3years ago now and didn’t need to register.
Don’t be scared people.
Get the same battery voltage and do the same thing.

[mlnags]

Thank you!!! You are a smart man!
Idea for all from a gramma who never had battery swap issues before my =1st bmw. Bought 2006 525i from grandson with brand new 🔋. 3 years later- no start. Electrically charged it, drove 5 miles fine, shut off, won’t start and battery 1.4 to 1.7charge differential= toast. . The battery 🔋 💥
New agm and will follow great instructions. 👍🏻
*Have always put 1 sock on the negative then 1 on the positive cable end until you get new battery in so you don’t short out anything.*
Will buy a unit that reads what needs to be read to recognize the new battery. Thank you again.

Thank you! It's frustrating trying to do something as simple as change a battery and not have my car start.
I've learned how to do maintenance on my car (changing my oil, replacing the MAF Sensor, engine filter, cabin air filter, getting the FRM Module repaired, changing the spark plugs), and it's a great feeling.

I felt it in my chest when you said that joker was heavy that imma need a man😂😂😂😂 And mine is 299$. I have a 2007 750i and it wouldn’t start after I put the battery back so I’ll try this 😢

[fishynathanfilms]

This worked on our 2006 X3. Thanks so much! Now wondering if that battery has to be registered soon.
