Just got my windows tinted, and now nothing works

[RazDaz]

First start up after getting my windows done and the following items either don't work or give me a malfunction

AC
Radio
TPM sensors
Driver/passenger restraint system
HUD
power trunk gate
Cameras

Blown fuse? Anything? The car has 400 miles on it.

That's odd ... Shouldn't affect any of those. Have you tried turning your car off, close all doors, lock it, wait for a few minutes and try it again.

Yes. A few times.

What's happening? What are the errors?

Sounds like your tint shop messed something up.

Try what was recommended above and if that doesn't work try disconnecting your battery completely and then reconnect after a few mins.

If not call your service advisor and have them flatbed it back to the dealer.

I know he got overspray on the door panels and had the doors open for an extended period of time but I didn't think it would be an issue.

Exactly the ones I posted. There's nothing about the trunk mentioned though or any explanation of why the HUD isn't working.

Take it to the dealer. Makes no sense why those issues would be affected by tint unless they took your doors apart and disconnected the connections. Our cars need to be reset when sensors and connections are disconnected. They most likely did not do it.

No panels were removed or anything. I sat there the entire time. Currently have the battery unplugged. Hoping that does it.

Hopefully ... I've had my car tinted and aside from a dead battery no other issues

[RazDaz]

I really don't want to have to take it to my local dealer. We are not on the best of terms since this is the second F10 I didn't buy from them.

These cars are sensitive to battery voltage. You ran the battery down.

Stick it on a charger, or if you can drive it..take a 2 hour drive.


(source: I may or may not have done something similar with my M3 while detailing with the radio on)

[RazDaz]

Disconnecting the battery did not work. I can definitely stick it on a charger. @fhaze did you experience these problems and did that remedy it?

[RazDaz]

Can I charge it thru the hood or do I have to go thru the trunk again?

[RazDaz]

Currently on the charger. We shall see.

Have you tried turning the car and seeing if it starts and goes into a gear. That should be the first thing you check.

I had some odd electrical behavior..not the x-mas tree you have, but after a long drive they went away, and I was on that same battery when I traded it in.

It starts and goes into gear and drives just fine.

Ok, a charge will not help here in most cases. How long did you drive it for with those lights on?

[RazDaz]

I'm charging it through the hood posts. I hope that's the right way

[MissionPerformance]

That will work, at what amp setting?

[RazDaz]

Charger says it's a 10amp charger?
