Rain sensor

[ebonygod]

Hello what is required to reactivate/ reinitialise the rain sensor? I am getting damn fed up with this rain sensor...sometimes I wish I didnt have it on the car!!!!

You need a GT1 or a DIS machine to do that, but what is the problem with it in the first place?

It's electronics by BMW, that's what's wrong!!!
My rain sensor is wacky and now doesn't work.
I tried reinitializing it but it didn't work either after a short while.
I let it be coz' I don't use my wipers much anyway.
Costs like almost $200 to replace the sensor, not including labor!

you can replace the sensor yourself in under a minute.

Oh, ok...but I still gotta let the dealer program or initialize it, right?

 

[ariper79]

True, but all I said was you can replace it in under a minute

Do you know anyone at a dealer that might do it on the side?

The mechanic I go to has the equipment for DIS

Hi there, I know this is old, but how do I replace the sensor, do you have a procedure?
