Unlock Your BMW’s Wiper Service Mode in Three Simple Steps
Maintaining your BMW’s wiper blades is essential for optimal visibility and performance, especially during harsh weather conditions. To make this process effortless, your BMW is equipped with a convenient wiper service mode that lifts the wipers into an upright position, allowing easy access for cleaning, replacement, or maintenance. Here’s how to activate it in just three easy steps:
Step 1: Prepare Your Vehicle
Start by turning the ignition to the ON position. If your BMW has a keyless start system, press the start button without pressing the brake pedal—this ensures the vehicle is in accessory mode but not fully running. After a moment, turn the ignition off again. This step prepares the system for wiper service mode activation.
Step 2: Activate Wiper Service Mode
Immediately after turning off the ignition, push the wiper stalk upward (toward the windshield) and hold it in place. After a few seconds, you’ll notice the wipers moving into an upright position on the windshield. This is the service mode, designed to give you full access to the wiper blades without obstruction.
Step 3: Return to Normal Operation
Once you’ve finished servicing your wiper blades, it’s time to return them to their standard resting position. Simply start your vehicle as you normally would, and briefly activate the wipers by pushing the stalk downward. The wipers will sweep across the windshield and automatically reset to their default position, ready for regular use.
This intuitive feature is just one of the many ways BMW combines innovation with practicality, ensuring your driving experience remains seamless and stress-free. Whether you’re replacing worn-out blades or giving them a thorough cleaning, wiper service mode makes the task quick and hassle-free.
