What an absolute legend
Thanks for the tip. Did this on mine this weekend and works perfectly. I would suggest using something a bit more permanent like solder rather than twist and heat wrap.

Good to hear man! Yeah I could have done it a bit more professional, I could have also used one of those splicers.
Hello. What a good solution. The black cable exactly to which pin did you hook it into the connector? In the image it is not appreciated. Thanks crack

Thank you! I believe you can see it at 03:22. If it is still unclear, let me know or shoot a me a DM on Instagram
Got my M2 today and it's amazing! I definitely want to do this to mine as I've only had it a day and having to press that red button in the trunk/boot everytime will get annoying quickly. Do you have any idea where I can buy another connector cable (the red & black connection)? So I can keep one stock just in case I need to swap it back again.

Congrats man, enjoy it! I don’t know where you can buy this set of cable, however, you can use one of these things instead to keep it at as original as possible: www.partex-direct.co.uk/image/cache/data/qs2-500x500.jpg To reactivate it you would then only need to reconnect the wires again! Hope this helps

Open the flaps then disconnect the harness from control module and that will keep flaps open all the time.

I was aware yes, I don’t want them open all the time though
Question! I just got a 2018 M2 with MPE, it didn’t come with the valves controller and it also doesn’t have the red bottom, how can I open the valves?

That’s weird. I know there is a way of unplugging the module while the car is turned on, that would open the valves and keep them open, but I’m not sure…

Is there a way to keep the valves open all the time? I have a 2018 m2 with MPE but without the red button…

Yes, open up the valves and then power off the module. This way they’ll always be open

is that done by pressing it once?@@TheHunterHofman
I've heard if you press the button once after pressing it twice, it preserves battery life, have you heard the same?

Hm, have not heard of that.. maybe we can lookup the manual online
Zou je ook de twee zwarte kabels uit de connector kunnen verwijderen en deze vervangen door 1 enkele kabel van connectorplug naar connectorplug? Hierdoor zou je niet meer hoeven solderen. Heb zelf nog niet gekeken hoe het zit bij mijn eigen auto. Leek mij een betere oplossing!

Ja zou idd moeten werken! Het kan een stuk netter dan hoe ik het gedaan heb, maar effectief was het in ieder geval

Im going to make this on my Bmw M2, thankssss. Did you think of getting the red button to the cabine?

I didn't, no. I just wanted to get rid of using the red button in general. I have seen an M2 with the red button in the cabine though. Hope the bypass works for you too, have fun!
