How To Find Passkey For BMW Bluetooth?

new to macrumors

Guys, I’ve got it figured out. My 645ci was having the exact same problem. You only need to start the pairing procedure by going to the Bluetooth screen. Now, make sure you enter the same four-digit pin you entered for your phone into the Bluetooth in your car. Choose either 0000 or 1234. Select “confirm passkey” after entering the passkey. That’ll finish it.

The passcode was not “preset” by BMW when I completed mine (also in 2011). I created it myself.

I simply walked in to pair, and it requested my phone’s passcode. The car asked for the passcode after I scrolled to (1) and I entered it, and it then paired.

Simply make up a number; I typically use 0000 or 1234. You don’t ever need to remember it, regardless of what it is. When you pair up, you just make stuff up.

I appreciate you being proactive and posting the passcode so that anybody who read this years from now will still be able to benefit from it.

You not necroposting a 4 year old thread merely to complain that you didn’t get the answer that was actually in the thread numerous times would have prevented our entire discussion.

What is the BMW Bluetooth PIN location?

On a BMW x3, where is the Bluetooth passkey?

My 2007 X3 and my Razr were easily connected thanks to Tmobile. I just bought a Razr VT and Krazr phone, and when I try to connect them, it says that my passkey is invalid. Anyone who has attempted this and succeeded? Can I ever upgrade my phone to something other than what BMW lists as compatible?

A passkey was included with the paperwork for your car. That is the passkey that you must enter in order for the phone to function. It’s in the documents if you look through them.

Look for a “black box” with labeling in the LH rear covered compartment if you can’t find the passkey information in your Owner’s Manual packet. The passkey code can be found on one of these labels that starts with “PH.” For future use, I cut off one of the labels and tucked it inside my owner’s manual. Hope this was useful.

The location is correct, although it is designated with a “PK” code. It has two labels that read “Continental” and has the appearance of silver. While programming the phone, be sure your key is in the first position.

You are aware that the trunk is a good place to look for a Bluetooth passkey. Have you ever noticed that the trunk has two compartments on either side that are opened by a small push button? The bluetooth hardware with the passkey is inside the left one when you open it. See if that functions. only on the BMW X3

Regards for the advice! Actually, the key is the PK in the trunk. The PK listed in the user manual is inaccurate, thus obviously they mismatched the paperwork with someone else when I purchased the car as a CPO.

Thank you for the idea; I was having trouble connecting my iPhone with the X3, but it worked like a charm. Who would have thought to check the trunk, open the side compartment door, and look for the passcode there? It wasn’t in the owner’s manual, which, I must say, is absolutely useless. Once more, many thanks!

(The dealer informed me that I did not have Bluetooth when I picked up my 2007 X3 yesterday, but I do. Woohoo!

Does anyone here know if it’s feasible to couple two phones with a car and have them both function simultaneously? I am aware that only one phone at a time can place or receive a call.

How can I locate my Bluetooth passkey?

How can I locate my iPhone’s Bluetooth passkey?

We have already mentioned that Bluetooth communication on the iPhone is severely limited. Apple’s Bluetooth File Exchange and iSync cannot synchronize with the iPhone under Mac OS X, and neither program can send files to the iPhone. Additionally, no Windows application has been reported that can synchronize or exchange data with an iPhone via Bluetooth.

However, the iPhone can simply interact with the Bluetooth hands-free devices used in most cars. Instructions for a number of the compatible systems have been identified.

Toyota This system works well with the iPhone. From iPhone Atlas reader George Wilde, pairing instructions:

Press the “INFO” button on the Prius navigation screen.
Touch the “Telephone” button on the “Information Menu” screen that appears.
Touch the “Settings” button on the “Telephone” screen that appears.
Scroll to the bottom of the “Settings” screen that appears and click “Add Phone” under “Bluetooth.”
After that, a screen with the words “Begin Bluetooth discovery/search from phone” and a four-digit pairing passkey is displayed to you.
Go to “Settings” A on your iPhone and select “General” from the list of options. Turn on Bluetooth by going down to that section. After that, the iPhone can be found for a while.
Once the iPhone detects the car’s Hands Free system, it should display a 4 digit form (and keyboard) for the user to enter the pairing passkey provided by the vehicle.
Then, tap “connect” after entering the four digits.
The vehicle will then indicate that it is linked and show the name and ID of the phone.
The navigation screen shows the cellular signal strength, and the phone’s audio is sent to the car speakers.

Acura The setup instructions for Acura’s HandsFree system, which also supports the iPhone, are comparable to those provided above for the Toyota.

Atlas reader for iPhone Bill says:

“Just recently, while at a stoplight, I was able to connect my iPhone to the HandsFree system in my 2006 Acura TL. As you may think, it performs even better than my Cingular 8525, which is currently for sale.”

vehicle kits with Sony HandFree Numerous aftermarket car kits for Sony HandsFree are also compatible with the iPhone. Please let us know if you’ve had luck using one of these kits.

Where on my phone can I find the passkey?

Your passcode can be located under the Bluetooth menu on your smartphone. The Bluetooth menu is typically located in the “Settings” section of your phone’s settings. You should be able to find the code for your phone by clicking on the “Get code” option in the Settings menu.
