Hi folks - I think I need your advice.
Car is a 2013 F30, 328i.
I changed the steering wheel from a base wheel (option 240) to m-tech wheel (option 710).
I coded the change from 240 to 710 in the VO. I then went to code the ECU's with the new VO by selecting the base SVT (selecting all ECU's) and clicked the "Code" button in E-Sys.
Engine was running.
It proceeded to cycle through the ECU's, coding them, no error messages. When it hit one of the ECU's the engine stopped - probably the DME. I left the engine off, ignition on, as it completed the rest of the cycle. It took about 7 minutes total for this step.
When it was all done I noticed the Check Engine light was on there were two faults showing in the CheckControl/iDrive:
(1) Drivetrain Malfunction
(2) Fuel System Malfunction
I disconnected E-Sys, turned the car completely off, doors locked, unlocked, and then restarted the car. No change, Check engine light on, 2 faults on the iDrive.
I connected E-Sys, opened Transmitter and sent a "Clear DTCs" and the CheckEngine
light went out. Two faults on iDrive and the warning triangle on the dash is still lit.
I disconnected the laptop and took the car for a 15 mile drive, mixed highway, city.
Car runs great, no noticable issue in running. Faults have not cleared though.
Auto Stop/Start is also not working - I assume this is because of the drivetrain fault condition.
So, did I break something during the ECU coding ? Will the car turn these faults off eventually when it calibrates ? What do you recommend I do next ?
Thanks !!!
