BMW remote head keys

The first generation of electric keys models used the rubber button key with three buttons and self replaceable lithium battery. During year 2000 was replaced with the diamond shaped remote key. Four buttons fob remote is used on 7-series (E65/E66/E67/E68) from 2002 through 2008 and 3 buttons keyless entry device is for many BMWs from the 2006 to about 2011. Latest models also armed with the Comfort Access keyless entry device.

Immobilizer vs Alarm/Locking system

Each type of the keys above have 3 entirely separate features that work in conjunction with eachother:



  1. EWS - immobilizer that shuts off ignition/fuel/spark for a non-recognized key. This feature DOES NOT need a battery, but require proprietary software/hardware
  2. DWA - battery operated anti-theft siren system - can be programmed by the owner using onboard procedure.
  3. FZV/FBZV - battery operated locking system/keyless entry (can also be programmed by the owner).

In our experience

If you have problems starting your car, the key battery is most likely not to blame, since the EWS don't need no battery to start the engine. In most cases the battery should last for life-time of the car! If you have a reason to think that the battery is dead or damaged you can try change or recharge it (for some newer style keys) by inserting it into the ignition, because a dead key battery will interrupt the DWA/FZV functions...but the key should still be able to start the vehicle.

BMW remote fob wont work

Although it can be a symptom of a cylinder or other ignition problem, especially with the fob keys, when you the key wont turn in the ignition, it is because of a dead battery... The ECM will not recognize that that door was opened and will not release the lock.
