Thank you so much for this video, can also confirm it works. We had a corroded positive battery terminal and a completely flat battery, so we were locked out of the boot until we did what this video showed us! One word of warning - the central locking won't work until you put the wiring module back in place behind the glove box. We almost locked ourselves out a second time!
Thank you for this video ❤ It worked for me, but to connect to the green grey wire, I used a paperclip in the socket opposite, on the back of the module, to get an electrical connection to the wire - just count along from the marked number 1, until you get to twelve and you should be opposite the right wire. Then I connected the power supply cable to the paperclip and it worked. Thanks again for this video, you saved my car from the scrapyard, so hugely grateful for you showing how to do this.

This has saved my cars life not even AA or bmw specialist said there is no way ❤ took me 3 mins to open boot Thank you so much your a legend ❤
Thanks a lot for posting this Bro, disconnected my battery completely and accidentally shut the boot. I don't have a ski hatch, saved me from having to remove the seats or damaging the armrest area.
Didn't work at first. The solenoid just kept clicking. Then I had someone apply the power, while I pulled up on the trunk release at the same time. Worked!!!. Thanks so much.
Thank you so much, this saved me. My car doesn’t have anything tho open the boot without the battery 🤦🏻♂️ E92 2011 facelift. No buttons no key hole, no cables to pull in the boot. Nothing. And i disconnected the big red cable. And this done it 🙌👏👏👏👏 Thank you!
Thanks a lot for your video sharing, I got 335 E93 battery bay got water due to battery wire get rusty no power supply whole vehicle electrical system.
I’ve got 2013 convertible, had an accident in 2018 battery cur off for safety 😂 for the last 3 years I’ve been looking for this :) for not having manual key hole on bmw trunks.. sucks regret buying bmw just for not having key hole 🤬🤬 Thank you very much mate, I’ll be definitely trying this tomorrow morning :) even thou the car is not fit to drive :)
Hi.. I have the same year and model and have the same problem my boot won't open and there is no manual switch for the boot. The roof drops and raises fine but its just the trunk. I recently had a few things coded and now have this problem.. any ideas to fix it please ??
@@leslie200903 I have 2013 bmw convertible and I’ve did the exact same on the video the guy had done, under the glove box there is module take out the module and put the red wire into number 12 hole which is the green grey cable then the trunk pops up, I’ve done exactly the same ok the video mine popped up, hope you could fix yours. By the way mine don’t have key hole
@@Brian-jv8iy read the comment before you would know how to open locked trunk plus there is a video on RUclips for it that’s how I’ve done it, all you need is your doors to be unlocked.
Are you just using a 12V Battery? Can I use the new battery that I got for my car to do this? Are you just using jumper cables and the attaching the negative end to your "spike" to power the pin connector? Thank you!
@@SunSetSundaes Lucky for you I had my battery disconnected today to replace the injectors and my wife closed the boot lid not realizing I won't be able to open it again!!! Now I have to tear the glovebox apart and get to the wiring to jump the boot actuator :(
Yusaf you could feel the cables far back under the cover if you put ur fingers in, I’ve felt in mine don’t know about urs. once I felt them I thought that’s it maybe 😂 get in there :))))
If you can use the jump leads and it works for you, why are you watching this video lol This is an emergency way of opening in case the battery is disconnected with boot lid closed or positive wire corroded so there’s no circuit with terminal under the bonnet. Anyway thanks for your comment 👍

@@leslie200903 won’t the trunk open?
@@canbazci6117 NO. Ive tried with the fob, locking and unlocking... nothing works. I've been scouring the Internet for answers

Ehm, under the hood there's also a 12v connector (red plastic cap). Much easier and the official way.
It would be but unfortunately that won’t work. Try it yourself and give us an update 👍
@@damok9529 It does work, if the battery is still connected. I tried.
Man! If you have access to the glove box, you have also access to the engine bay where you can find positive connector. Save your time!
Are you just using a 12V Battery? Can I use the new battery that I got for my car to do this? Are you just using jumper cables and the attaching the negative end to your "spike" to power the pin connector? Thank you!
Worked great cheers! 👌
Guys how do I spark the wire in pin #12? What is the way to do that? Shall I get a 12v battery and connect the positive to pin #12?
Thank you so much
Acojonante la liada para abrir el maletero xD
I don't understand where I have to connect the negative?
Hi so my car battery is low and my roof is slightly open and it's stopping me from getting to the battery please help 😭😭🙏🏾
Why don't you use jumper cables on the front red and negative post in the engine bay to give the car more power so your roof will open?
I feel sooooo stupid🤣🤣🤣 I got it sorted thank you 🙏🏾
@@SunSetSundaes Lucky for you I had my battery disconnected today to replace the injectors and my wife closed the boot lid not realizing I won't be able to open it again!!! Now I have to tear the glovebox apart and get to the wiring to jump the boot actuator :(
@@SunSetSundaeswhat was the fix?
Hi! This procedure will work also if the battery is totally disconnected from che cables? Because I have this problem now..
Yes it will
Ive took apart the glovebox but cant find the module at all. Any ideas??
Yusaf you could feel the cables far back under the cover if you put ur fingers in, I’ve felt in mine don’t know about urs.
once I felt them I thought that’s it maybe 😂 get in there :))))
Isn’t same with E90 320i? Can anyone answer me
I’m pretty sure it is, go by the colour of the wire
Just use jump leads
If you can use the jump leads and it works for you, why are you watching this video lol
This is an emergency way of opening in case the battery is disconnected with boot lid closed or positive wire corroded so there’s no circuit with terminal under the bonnet. Anyway thanks for your comment 👍
