Car Forum / BMW Cars / January 2007Battery Disconnect
I need to disconnect the battery in my 2000 323i E46 to install a cd changer/ipod adapter. Anyone know of any cautions to take before disconnecting? Does disconnect cause a need for reprogramming anything on the vehicle (radio code, on-board computer, .... ???) > I need to disconnect the battery in my 2000 323i E46 to install a cd > changer/ipod adapter.

I have diconnected the battery on my 2000 323 with no problems. You might need the radio security code to get it back to life. >> I need to disconnect the battery in my 2000 323i E46 to install a cd >> changer/ipod adapter.

Steve, any number of supply stores sell a very simple "memory" holding devices based on a lighter plugin male plug with a 9volt battery connector at the end of its wire. Putting the ordinary little battery into the connector and then plugging it into the socket seems to work fine and safely. |
