Jb4 Stage 2 4 extra Wires HELP!!
Hello, i just bought Stage 2 JB4. I followed instructions online for installation. But i am stuck at the last part. What do i do with the four extra wires? Ground, red, brown, green. Where do they plug into? Pictures Please
I tried to follow the instructions but it fails to show pictures for the F10 so i am unable to tell where each one goes |

Just installed the Jb4 Stage two. Unfortunetly i did not have the right connections for the 4 wires im guessing. Although according to that link you can just set the 4 wires aside. Which i did. Now reconnecting the battery and starting the car i receive a DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION CODE...
Any help? |

The control box is supposedly different between S1 and S2 so you can't just run it without those wires installed according to Terry. If your car doesn't look like the pics posted then you need to run only S1.

My 2011 535i doesn't have the CANBUS location like it shown in the instruction. Does anyone know where to find the CANBUS wire harness?

My 2011 does have the CANBUS wiring so there has to be something else besides the MY that dictates its inclusion on the vehicle.

Nope, i got my Stage 2 installed a few days ago. Finally got it too work. Improvements are very noticeable, even in casual driving without the Sport Mode

I finally installed mine on Friday. Drive it locally and noticed a light difference. I did a trip today which was about 300km and really noted a big difference. So far I am very pleased !
