Coding HELP!!!

the SW update has been done by my dealer.

Hey All......do I need some pixie or fairy dust to enable VIM on my GT? The values are not the same as what I see on various cheat sheets. Can someone post the correct settings?

Lex, have you looked in the coding forum? either that or the old coding thread on the F10 forum. I remember the settings were there. I've not done it as I don't find it useful (Kids/wife uses ipad in car).

Yes, the various cheat sheets say set Werte to FF but that is not an option for me. Also, the various cheat sheets say the default value is 3 kmh or 8 kmh. Again, not correct as my default value is nicht_aktiv with 3 kmh or 8 kmh as options.

With the dvdinmotion cd the vaules are changed to FC in my GT.
So, try just to edit the "Werte=FC" and Save it

Thanks but i just tried and it didn't work.

I'm coding in HU CIC 3000 module

The default wercht is 00.

When i click EDIT, change value to FF or FC, and click SAVE.....the value changes back to 00.

Yes but something tells me the F07 VIM values aren't the same as the F10 cause i can't get it to work.

It's confusing. There are 3 options, 3KMH, 8KMH and "nicht_aktiv". Ignore "nickt_aktiv" and set both settings to whichever you prefer (3kmh or 8kmh is fine) and THEN change the "Werte" values of the 3kmh or 8kmh selections to FF. They will wind up saving as "Unknown" "FF" but that is what will work. (if you don't now how to edit the Werte values, there is a tutorial somewhere - from memory, you have to right click, choose edit, manually edit the value in the bottom window and then over in the lower right corner of the app there is a tiny icon to save the value, THEN hit the save disk icon on the top menu and then code it.)

For example:

SPEEDLOCK_X_KMH_MAX 8_kmh = 8 AND "Werte" = FF
SPEEDLOCK_X_KMH_MIN 3_kmh = 3 AND "Werte" = FF
VIDEO_NUR_MIT_HANDBREMSE to "nicht_aktiv"

Those should do the trick. They worked for me. Be sure to use F01 coding.

Thanks so much T! I will try this tomorrow and report back.

This is what was tripping me up!! I wasn't aware of another save icon on the lower right hand corner of the screen. Anyway, VIM has been successfully coded and a RESOUNDING THANK YOU to you tonyscv !!!

Great! Now of someone could post the settings to get the initial fasten seat belt chime and warning for the driver to not bug me when first starting the car, I'd be very appreciative.
