2021 530E "Charging port flap open" alert

Hi,

Car is showing "Charging port flap open" alert all the time when the flap is actually closed. I had this issue before and the service replaced the sensor. I don't have warranty anymore so I don't want to fix it on my own expense
Does someone know if its possible to turn off the charging flap sensor by bimmercode?

Coding it out is probably not possible & a bodge.

The part isnt expensive and its an easy job to fit a new one.

Try a spray of ptfe or siiicone lube on the catch and push it in & out a few times which might free it up.
