E60 LCI Turn off display monitor

[Member 33]

Hi,Can anyone please share with me how to turn off the display monitor after switching off the engine without locking the doors?My car is 525i with keyless entry & push button start/stop. I've noticed that the monitor display is still on even after I switched off the engine & audio. It will only switch off after I lock the doors..Anything to do with setting?Thanks...

Bro, did you start the engine without using the key? i.e.
key slotted - push start - push stop - remove key - (door closed) push start?

Maybe this could help?

I think it is on all series if not mistaken as mine is year 2006 E60 non-lci.
To use this try:
1. Go inside your car and SHUT the door.
2. Start your engine.
3. Stop your engine.
4. Remove key from slot.
5. (DOOR STILL SHUT) Start your engine.

Keyless ignition
