13 Button OBC Tricks & Easter Eggs

[Super Sedan]

Thats why. My temp always reads -30oC. Thanks

Now time to get a new exterior temperature sensor.

Shit ok! Jeez sorry for pissing you off. You guys know about pushing in the blinker stalk right?

just found this out a few weeks ago...


I'm gonna go make the alarm go off..

[e30slut]

kust made the alarm go off and couldnt figure out how to shut it the fuck up!
so i locked the door figuring that it would eventually go off, and it did as soon as the lock engaged...

anyway to make the OBC code function a permanent thing instead of having to reenter after every use ?

Does anybody in the us want to trade a 12 button obc + harness for a mint euro analog clock?

[BMWManiac]

Is the main harness and the OBC the ONLY things you need to have ALL the features work? I installed the 13 button OBC, but all I can see if time/date and I think the mph. Everything else reads "PPPP." I've googled, searched R3vlimited, e30tech, and they all have a list of tricks to do but nothing has worked. I'm at the point where I think I should replace it. But I'm just curious if you need any of the other parts plugged in to?

Ya, I wonder. If there was a way to just push a button as you exited the car, that would be SHWEET!!

[michaelpjones]

has anyone figured out the "pppp"?

[BMWManiac]

I ended up replacing the OBC with a known good one....if none of the tricks to reset it works, it may be bad.

Gonna bump this up. Anyone know if the obc is supposed to stay on when the car is off? The functions dont work aswell as the light when The key is not in, it just keeps blinking like if its just giving the time. is that normal?
I replaced my obc, the one I replaced te screen was broken.

[Balleristic31]

Yes that's normal

Thanks!

my OBC wont light up anymore. it used to be backlit all the time so i could see it in the dark or even during the day but now it doesn't light up anymore.

Does anyone know how to fix it? I know it's not broken because I can still see the numbers when I put a light up to it and the time changes and everything but I can't even see it during the day. Please help!!
