Just bought new car... found remote start kit installed.
I just purchased a 2016 BMW 340i xDrive and was mounting my radar detector when I noticed an antenna mounted by the rear view mirror. I traced the wires down into the passenger footwell and found 3 different modules and a bunch of sketchy wires that were tapped into the Front Electronic Module (FEM). I am in the process of taking all of the stuff out but am concerned as to a few wires that appear to be coming from the original wiring of the FEM that were directly wired into the control modules for the remote start. Essentially these 4 wires are now not plugged into anything since I disconnected the power to the control module units. There are four wires that come from the FEM A173*8B connector that are Orange/Green, Orange/Brown, Tan/Black, Tan that I would like to identify and see if those were just added on for the remote start or if they are supposed to be connected for something that is OEM related. Any help would be appreciated. I had the battery disconnected throughout the whole process and now that everything is unplugged from the remote start units the car still functions with no problems but I would definitely like to trace the 4 mystery wires.
