This is a short guide to help you retrofit the option SA316 - automatic trunk lid mechanism into your F10.
That refers to a motor opening and closing of the lid. The powered version opens and closes the lid slowly with a
motor, without option SA316 the lid springs up without motor assistance and has to be closed manually.

The pictures below show the parts.
HKFM
First, start to make your cable-tree which is shown in the above picture connected into the HKFMs A43*1B connector.
Its the 61136931912 10 pin connector.

When you prepare this connector before you start, you save yourself time during the disassembly.
Now onto the disassembly.
Get some good plastic pry tools, you will need them a lot.
After removing all the plugs, carefully remove the whole carpet and the bumper cover which goes off pretty hard.
Unplug the pole of the battery and start to remove the old springs by pure force. Be careful, when you remove
them, the lid can fall on your head, so secure it in the open position.
Its recommended to put in 51717205169 and 170 as reinforcement not shown in pictures.
The old spring uses a different fixture point for their joint, so dont worry, the new spring will fit just fine. Put a flat
screwdriver under the metal clip on the end of the new springs it makes it easier to clip them onto the joints.
Here you can see the HKFM module in its housing and the fusebox released you need access to the back of the
fusebox. to make 3 connections 2 coming from the HKFM (fuse 183 and 153) and 1 which will supply the soft close
mechanism in the lid. Fuse 183 should be empty, 153 should be occupied, so just make a cable-cable connection,
dont try to pull out the pin (its too damn hard ). Prepare a 4m long 1,25mm2 diameter wire which you have to
connect to the fuse 155 in the Z26B block in the fusebox. After you have all three wires connected, you can put the
fusebox back in place. Connect the cables coming from both springs into the HKFM. Attach the 2 ground cables
coming from the HKFM into Z108B picture shows just one.
Now onto the lid itself. Pry all out, push on the sides where the arrows are, remove gently, dont forget to
disconnect the small light
Mount the soft close mechanism, guiding the bowden like in the picture, also guide the wire coming from the soft
close to the lock.
Mount it with the help of the rubber plugs. Now attach the bowden and the cable to the lock, and fix it into its
position with the big torx screws.
The old lock has a 4 pin connector, but you need a 6 pin connector for the new one. Follow the scheme to create the
new connector using 61139149190 6 pin connector.
Pull the cable which you connected to the fuse 155 together with a long (10m, 0,85mm2) wire through the tube with
help of a hard cable. Connect the Fuse wire to PIN 1 and the thinner long cable to PIN 6.
Now we have to take care of the switch which activates the automatic trunk.
We slightly have to alter its connector as well.
Attach the new wire to

a grey-yellow wire
found in this bundle
Unused PIN 2 with
a new wire (around
20cm long)
Ok, so the trunk is wired, we now need to connect the last 3 wires which let the car communicate with the trunk
the CAN bus wires coming from the HKFM and the long cable coming from the lock mechanism PIN 6.
ISTA says the following find the CAN cables in X1551V. I havent found them there. They should be 2 twisted wires,
easy to find. So I found them on the other side in the trunk connecting into the Camera module. I followed them
from the rear drivers side door into the trunk.
they look like this
Make the connections, either by splitting the cables, or just remove the isolation and attach it to their side.
Now comes the funny part

Lead the only cable left to the front around the passenger side into the junction box behind the glove box. The
pictures come from a right side drive car, nonetheless, they are the same in the left side drive car. You DO NOT have
to remove the plastic entrance step covers. Just push the cable between the carpet and the covers, pry them up
a little bit to easy the cable underneath them.
When you have the cable at the front passenger footwell area start to remove the glovebox.
Gently pry out the wood trim
with the middle vents to acces
the torx screws of the glovebox.
There are some hidden screws, you should not forget. If you have a DVD changer, you have to remove it first. It has 5
torx screws holding it to the glovebox and one cable that unplugs on the back.
Be careful with the USB port!
Also there is a connector on the

middle side of the glovebox which you
have to disconnect.
After that you either fully remove the
glovebox or just let it hang on the USB
cable.
You will see the junction box and the big blue connector. The black connector slides out from the side of the blue
housing. After that, find the PIN 13 and plug in the cable.
Now you can try to assemble everything back

The trunk should work after you attach the battery, but it might still have some issues that need to be taken care of
by coding and initializing by ISTA.
