How To Replace & Reset A BMW Battery

So I’m really making this video for the people that are having trouble with their BMWs or Audi’s or any foreign car really. This video will help you save a lot of money because you will be able to fix your own car now also if your car doesn’t start but it has power then it’s probably not your battery check your alternator. Also if your car keeps dying I suggest you just take the blow to the mouth and buy a new battery because the more you jumpstart your car you are risking to fry a module or kill your alternator which then everything will be even more expensive if you have any questions leave a comment down below or you can reach me on Instagram or Snapchat.

You don't need Autozone. You can easily check your battery with a multimeter. Also you need to register your new battery even if it has the same exact rating specs as your old. You have to do this so that the DME knows this is a new battery and won't overcharge it.

Alvarez, just to give you a heads up and to all your subscribers. BMW cars have a big load on the batteries, you must keep the battery charged especially if you don't drive it often or drive long distances. Best way to do this is to purchase a trickle charger to keep it maintained a little over 12 volts, you need a cheap voltmeter to check this. I have a 128I convertible and with this clapped up virus and quarantine, I haven't driven it for a while. Yesterday, I went to start it and the battery was completely dead, I didn't know why, the battery is almost 2 yrs old and I live in Florida so I don't have the cold weather to contend with. Fortunately I have a battery charger so I charged it back up, and then I did some research and found what I am saying here. I hope this helps someone out there. I enjoyed this video. FYI. You do need to register the battery after installation.

Angel, you got something wrong. You don’t loosen the negative first, you REMOVE it first. The reason negative comes off first is: If you put a wrench on the + and the wrench touches some metal, you’re going to short 12V to ground and BAM!!! So loosen AND remove the negative connection, and then it’s safe to loosen the positive, even if your wrench accidentally touches metal.

At 1:15 Angel says "The first thing you do is TAKE-OFF the negative first. " He makes it quite clear.

@@joedavello9124 Ok, sorry, but that isn’t what he did. He loosened the negative then loosened the positive, and then he removed the negative. That isn’t the correct procedure, because with the negative loose but still attached, the ratchet on the positive can cause a short.

Hey Marshall, you got it half right, the reason you take the neg off first is that if any part of your body touches the frame of the car (so not just the wrench, for example; if you lean against the body of the car or your other hand touching frame for support etc.) you will short

You don’t have to unless your car requires it like the new ones. But most 2015 and down are ok with just replacing it. Id suggest though you eventually just take it to Bmw or who ever and have them program it. Butif you get the exact one for your car you should be fine to just swap it out. What’s going to happen is when you take out the old battery your car will lose its memory setting like your saved radio station and saved seat setting and Bluetooth. If you don’t mind just setting everything up again just do that.

Exchanged it and next one had correct amount of cca, over 900cca.

Well I’ve had the same battery ever since I did this video and haven’t had a issue and battery’s are supposed to be replaced every 2-3 years

@jmccarsnmore1025 4 жыл бұрын

Great explanation. Thank you!! Btw, bought my battery at BMW dealer and they sold me a way bigger battery. Still fits, but to the last hole out of the three for the bracket for bottom of the battery.

Love your videos! Short and straight to the point. Just a request... I like working on my car with my son and would appreciate it if you can leave out the F bombs so that I can enjoy the videos with him. Would be great if you can. Thanks!

You’re right. I will work on that for sure. Thank you.

Yes. I agree. I almost went to a different video. Im a roofer and an old oil field worker so that word is used by me as an adjetive, noun, and vetb..but think your videos are excellent without it. Thanks for the time you take to explain everything. 👍

How do I reset it

@Believe30 4 жыл бұрын

My battery is under the hood. What kind of battery do you buy? What do you mean you need to register the battery?

@lifeofmario9137 4 жыл бұрын

You take the same battery to your local auto parts stare and have them give you the same one. What I mean by register is some battery’s over time lose some voltage so the cars computer knows that because bmw registers it into the car and the car will adjust

@@lifeofmario9137 I don't need a battery right now, but I remember having to get a new one from the dealer, which cost an arm and a leg. I just want to be prepared and not get ripped off again. How will I know if I need to register it?

@lifeofmario9137 4 жыл бұрын

You’ll only have to register it if it a bigger or smaller battery than the one that was in there before but if you talk your old one to autozone and ask for a new one you won’t have to worry about it

CHI LAY you are right on the new ones you need to reprogram the battery to the car but on the older 1/3 series it’s not necessary as long as you make sure you get the same battery.

@lifeofmario9137 4 жыл бұрын

So once you take the battery out you can take it into an auto parts store and ask for a new one with the same specs. If not you can give them the vin number of your car and they will give you the correct one for you.

So my X5 wouldn’t start & I called a neighbor for a jump but didn’t look up any videos on HOW to do it, the car started but all the gauges don’t. So THEN I started looking for fixes & I vaguely rmbr a vid you did with some ‘module’ that you had blown ... where is that video again?? I alrdy pulled the fuses for the OBC & tried to reset with no luck :( my navigation had alrdy been out so I was using the steering column for info, now I don’t even have a gas gauge

Alvarez jr3 thanks for pointing me to the video again good news is all my interior lights still work so hopefully I won’t have to replace that module after all... I messed with the fuses & had a hard time removing the #1 but 43 & 45 were easier unfortunately the reset didn’t work out for me.. maybe I should try it again .. ? I just replaced a wire ignition cable harness & a spark plug bc of a misfire p0302 code a week ago
