[QUOTE="jarance, post: 475927, member: 21"] Pertaining to item 4, this is the manual bypass. Sometime, you have to pull a bit harder in order to release the latch. You may have a loose connection at the actuator side or a sticky actuator. Open the side cover (just above the battery) to get access to the actuator. The actuator should move in or out when you push or pull the lever. The actuator will either extend or retract the lever depending on the polarity of the supply to the terminals. see item #12 [url=http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E46/Sedan/Malaysia/318i-N46/RHD/N/2004/march/browse/bodywork/side_panel_tail_trim/][img]http://static.bmwfans.info/images/epc/ODkyODhfcA==.png[/img][/url] [url=http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E46/Sedan/Malaysia/318i-N46/RHD/N/2004/march/browse/bodywork/side_panel_tail_trim/]Side panel/tail trim[/url] - [url=http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/]BMW parts catalog[/url] [/QUOTE]
