If the switch to operate your convertible top breaks, this video shows you how to open and close it if needed with a bread twist tie.
Many thanks for this - saved me a ton of work in trying to work out what to do! Few little differences that I found - car is a 2011 325i - we are in the UK, so car is right hand drive. I have a push button start, but I was able to remove the gear knob with no issues. When I removed the gaiter there was no cable plugged in - so that made it much easier. To remove the console, I used some plastic trim removal tools. Started gently at one side and worked my way slowly up and down. Gentle pull and this came up - again no issues. I only unplugged the wires that were connected into the switch itself - left everything else in place. Then I unplugged the switch cable when the switch was out. T20 Torx tool to remove and replace screws. Gently eased console back into place and then needed a few harder 'bangs' with the edge of my hand to fully relocate the console. Whole job took about 15 mins from start to finish and that was with me taking it slowly to avoid any breaking of clips etc.
Thanks for clarifying I’ll give it a shot.👍
Great video do you know if it’s any different for a manual from the shifter boot side?
Would these instructiins apply to a 328i ?
Muy útil el video, hoy cambie el switch muy rápidamente😄, mil gracias
My 335i e93 has a push button start button ... you say to turn on the car and put it in dri mve and turn car off ... my car won't turn off when car is in drive ... what shd i do? can i replace the switch with car in park?
Dealer Price: $1,852.45 His price: Loaf of stale bread. Epic solution!
Thank you for this instruction. We hoped it would work on a 2008 328i e90, but it does not. My vehicle will not allow me to turn the engine off unless it is in park. Any suggestions or has anyone else replaced the hard top convertible switch on this model?
Hi David. How can I contact you regarding the top on my 335i?
Was für ein Vogel 😂
Did you ever replace the switch? If so, do you have the part information. I'm having the same problem right now.
You can find all parts and part numbers here: www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/select?product=P&archive=0&series=E93&body=Cab&model=335i
Way too much work to open the top. I'd rather drive with the top up 🤣
or just use the key in the door..
? key in the door?
This was so useful are you appreciate it
what the hell is this stupid doing ?
Vertical video :(
Hey Baul D. Baldanzo....you gonna answer my question?
Why would you lay more for an oem switch when the oem switch is what originally prematurely failed?
Why not just use your remote?
How much is the switch from BMW dealership?
What was wrong with the switch? I am having an issue with mine...the button doesn’t push down to put the top down. I had to use the remote to open the top. The switch works to put it down though.
Man You are a good Man ,David thx... paid my mechanic 125.- to do this !!! Scammers ,never again !!
Was the red light on the switch on?
mine is when I go to hit it. red light pops on on the switch.... what does this mean
