67 62... Notes on initializing power windows: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 18 other vehicles, including the 2015 BMW Alpina B7L xDrive, 2015 BMW Alpina B7 xDrive, 2015 BMW 750i xDrive, 2015 BMW 750Li xDrive, and 2015 BMW 740Li xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: initialization  is performed on the power window switch of the relevant door.

Initialization  comprises:

  • Normalization
  • Learning characteristic curve

With normalization, the mechanical end stops of the power window regulator are recorded and stored.

The characteristic curve is learnt immediately after normalization.

When the characteristic curve is learnt, the mechanical closing forces of the power window are recorded and stored for correct operation of the anti-trapping mechanism.

Initialization, i.e. normalization and learning of characteristic curve, is performed in a continuous operation.

NOTE: An initialization  must be performed:
  • In the event of malfunctions, e.g. no one-touch function, no opening or no comfort function possible.
  • After the power window drive or door module has been replaced.
  • After work is carried out on the power window mechanism.
WARNING: There is no anti-trapping protection during initialization.

Necessary preliminary tasks:
