BMW 5 Series: Steering column switches

In the G30, the turn signal/high beam switch and the wash/wipe switch immediately engage when operated. The one-touch signalling and headlight flasher continue to function as before. This measure was implemented in response to customer requests. The one-touch button will gradually disappear from BMW vehicles.

Wash/wipe switch

The rain sensor mode is activated at the first detent position. An LED on the wash/wipe switch indicates that the rain sensor mode is activated.

Following a terminal change, the rain sensor mode is automatically activated when the vehicle travels over 5 km/h / 3 mph. The LED on the wash/wipe switch indicates that the rain sensor mode has been reactivated.

The rain sensor mode is already included in the standard equipment.
