How do I program the key fob for my BMW 1 Series?

I recently bought a used BMW 1 Series and the key fob has stopped working. What steps do I need to take to program the key fob properly? Any helpful tips would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Monica, programming a key fob for your BMW 1 Series can seem daunting, but it's actually a fairly easy process. First, locate the programming button on your car (usually in the trunk area). Then, insert your key into the ignition and turn it to the 'ON' position. Press and hold the programming button for about 10 seconds until the car's lights flash. Next, press and release the lock button on your key fob. The lights should flash again to indicate the programming was successful. I hope this helps!

Hi Monica, I had a similar issue with my BMW 1 Series key fob. One thing to try is replacing the battery in the key fob first. If that doesn't work, you may need to re-sync the key fob with your car. To do this, press and hold the unlock button on your key fob while at the same time pressing the key fob's lock button three times. This should re-sync the key fob with your car. Let me know if this works for you!

Hi Monica, if you're still having issues programming your key fob for your BMW 1 Series, I suggest contacting your local BMW dealership for assistance. They may be able to provide you with specific instructions for your model and year of car. Good luck!
