Earth connection
› Connect the brown wire with the loop to the earth screw on the lower A-pillar. Tighten the
nuts to the specified tightening torque.
Connecting the wires for the wiring harness (B) to the retaining bracket and the
BCM control unit (connection diagram, fig. 2).
Use the tool in the cutter set to remove all necessary wires and connect them to the wiring
harness (B) as follows.
Retaining bracket.
› Use the 2-pin connector (C) to connect the red/yellow wire on the wiring harness (B) to the

BCM central control unit.
› Connect the orange/black wire to the orange/black wire in connector C – PIN 44.
› Connect the orange/brown wire to the orange/brown wire in connector C – PIN 45.
› Connect the orange/green wire to the orange/green wire in connector C – PIN 46.
› Connect the orange/brown wire to the orange/brown wire in connector C – PIN 47.
Connect the removed lines to the 6-pin protection plug (D) in accordance with the wiring dia-
gram in fig. 2. Pull the damping piece (E) over the wired connector and connect the connector
to the corresponding connector on the wiring harness (B).
After connecting all of the wires, carefully route the wiring harness (B). Coil the excess
length of the wiring harness into a flat loop. Then use the cable ties (F) to secure the
wiring harness and this loop to the vehicle's existing electrical installation roughly in the
area shown in fig. 5.
Check that all the wires of the wiring harness (B) are securely attached and seated. The
wires must be secured in such a way that they cannot become loose or damaged and so
that no interference noise occurs while driving. Secure the wiring harness in the area un-
derneath the console with the utmost care so that it cannot become loose. This prevents
it from colliding with other components that are located underneath the console
(knee airbag, pedals, etc.).
Refit all of the components that you removed earlier and tighten the respective connec-
tions to the specified tightening torques. Connect the vehicle battery and carry out all
steps for disconnecting and reconnecting the battery (see Repair Manual).
After completing the installation, activate the SmartGate control unit. When handing the
vehicle over, the customer must be made aware of how the SmartGate control unit works.
Give the “SmartGate communication” information sheet to the customer.
