  • This video shows you how to access your BMW 1 series F20/F21 front End Module (FEM) containing fuses for such things as your central locking, lights and OBD port for reading vehicle data etc.
    This vehicle was a 2011 model.
    F20 relates to the 5 door version and f21 the 3 door version.
    I made it so you wouldn't struggle like I did , as there isn't really any useful clear info out there as a quick reference.

    Hi, thanks for the info, was really useful video for removing the FEM module to programme a new key.
    Programmed thr key fine but now have the problem that the tailgate won't open and the display screen and radio won't come on. Could it be to do with these fuses or Likely somewhere else? Was all working fine first time FEM was replaced but 2nd time removed after losing keys things have gone weird. Thanks

      Hi, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you didn't forget to disconnect the battery first. It could, if you're lucky just be a fuse, the head unit fuses are not in the FEM so check the other boxes. Be good to hear how you resolved the problem. Sorry I can't help more.

      08:33 to 08:41 shows what each fuse is for- the MAF is not here. I imagine it is in the fuse box under the bonnet

      @@zippipops7651 I have checked the diagram and also the front engine bay fuses and in the trunk it's not there . I was wondering it may be hidden somewhere like the FEM as I didn't know it existed. Thank you

    • @zippipops7651
      @zippipops7651  Před 2 lety

      @@Sahildrift I believe there are 4 fuse boxes.
      1.Front engine bay
      2.FEM in passenger side
      3.REM in the boot center under the lining
      4.Another module in the boot on the right under the sound insulation paneling.
      But first i'd check all the fuses in the engine bay- it may well be one of them- and any blown ones change maybe?
      failing that check all the others one by one. Sorry I can't be more help

    • @zippipops7651
      @zippipops7651  Před 2 lety

      also, I imagine the engine icon may have the relevant fuse attached so you could start there, in the boot center maybe.

    From what I’ve heard. Disconnecting the battery can wipe the memory from the cars electronics so how do I get past this issue

    • @zippipops7651

      It shouldn't be a problem or problematic. it's commonly done to erase error codes without a special device. The car will operate as normal afterwards.

      i think it unlikely to be fuse related
