How to Code the Battery of a BMW

Model: BMW BMW Various
Part: Battery

Let's see how to code the battery of a BMW vehicle: this is a necessary operation because the intelligent charging system of BMW adapts to the battery, maximising performance and lifespan, preventing damage from over and undercharging: it is therefore essential after every replacement. You can perform this operation using Bimmercode, an application for smartphones that connects to the EOBD socket via an OBD tool; start the car, open the app on your phone, connect to the vehicle, select the model of your BMW, go to the "control Units" section, search for "battery registration", enter the battery menu and input the type of battery (AGM/EFB etc.) and the capacity. If required, the brand. Confirm the data, start the procedure, and wait for completion.
