Any expert advice?

Thanks!

No way to pair fogs to automatically turn on with low beams, unless you want to lose ability to toggle.

I’m fine with not being able to toggle. Is it still possible?

You have FLE or TMS?

FLE

Under POLI_Idx, POLI2_Idx and POLI3_Idx - default value is 18 for all of them and werte is 01, 01, 0A, etc. for all of them as well.

The cheat sheet has default value as F015Wert_SA552_SAE and has OC states change from OC --> OA. But mine is already at OA
Mine is a 2016 X5M.

Thoughts?

Add .pdf to your fle file and attach to post.

Values are not direct percentages, so not possible to make suggestions without complete pictures.

Here's the screen shot. What do you think?

That will not help. I would need entire NCD.

Yes, worked fine.

Anybody can advise how to code the advanced Bluetooth with BimmerCode ?

Same as this thread:

Thank you

Advanced bluetooth is VO coding. It cannot be done with Bimmercode. You have to use E-sys. There are details regarding this coding in the first post of the thread.

Check the thread in my response in above and you will see that if you have the right values you can use BimmerCode

KAFAS2 --> 3020 --> DISPLAY_VARIANT, manually change Werte from 04 to 01. Light will disappear.

Correction - light will disappear when the system is on standby (amber light). When system is active - green light will appear, which is fine with me. I guess trying different values will lead to the different results.

Hello Guys,

Does anyone know how i should change in ESYS rear turn light from RED to Yellow ? US F15 in Europe... ! ( LED was changed in lamps, cable from BDC to lamps also done - only codding).

Thank you..

[bms5]

Is 3.28.1 the latest E-Sys and V2.8.2.155 the latest data files?

If not, Sean, could you please pm me the latest link?

Thank you!

Try coding BDC with euro vehicle type. I'm actually surprised it's not just straight hardware replacement.

[mrfochon]

I am still trying to connect to the car with Enet cable and windows VM on Mac.
Getting two issues:
1. Launching Ediabas components gets error: MSWINSCK.Ocx or one of its dependenci w not currently registered....

2. Launching SW ID reader you can read:
Starting ...F series
EDIABAS Version 7.3.0
Sys-0005: object file not found
Turn ignition On. Try again.


If you know how to solve any of these will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Taillight Color is not codeable. European Amber Lights are are different hardware than U.S. Red Lights. And if you use European Taillights in U.S. Car, the wiring and Coding is different.
