Need help with JB4

nets52791 · 05-30-2014, 12:08 PM

i just took over a brand new 2013 335xi lease and it already had the JB4 installed in it. the guy i took it over from tried to tell me how to turn it on and off but i couldn't understand him bc he had a heavy asian accent. i was wondering if someone could tell me how to turn it on and where the satellite radio is. i can't find the satellite radio in my car.

On the steering wheel, press both down arrows (sound and channel) simultaneously, you'll see your gauges change to the current map. Change your tach down to 0, then keep pushing down and you'll exit the JB4. That'll "turn it off".

Gauges? Was there an update?! Dash Controls?!??

you're talking about the e92. i need to know for the f30 335xi(2013).

Hold down the Volume - button for 5-7 secs to go to Map 0. To go to your previous map, hold down the Volume - button again for 5-7 secs, then immediately press the Volume +. This only switches from Map 0 to whatever Map you were previously on. You will need to use the JB4 interface to change to any other map.

Plug in your laptop to it after downloading the jb4 software. Also visiting the BMS forum with all the details on how to use it would probably be worthwhile to you.

Just buy a usb cable.
A lot easier to change maps with it.
Also it will be very useful for logging and reading codes in the future.
