Hi Jeff, congratulations on your retrofit! Sounds like it went smoothly! The only reason I can think of why NCS won't talk to the new TCU is because $633 is not in the V0. I imagine INPA reads the V0 too so it knows how to handle communication with the modules. It must generate an index of expected units and variants based on the V0 and manufacturing date. After changing my production date I still didn't have the TCU listed in the ECU list in NCS hence why I added $633. It's no biggie of course, If it works don't mess with it!
I'm glad we have all had success with this retrofit, I would never have attempted this of it wasn't for Ace starting this thread in the first place. Now he just needs to tell u how to retrofit this comfort access! |

Once I fix these minor issues with the coding, I think retrofitting electric side mirrors might be a nice retrofit for those in need. Also I changed ALL possible lighting to LED but the bulb connected to the fibre in the door still glows a yellowish color. I would love to change these bulbs to white or LED, but the idea of taking appart 4 doors for 4 light bulbs seems dangerous. The comfort access looks like a very costly and complex retrofit even though it is really cool. Jeff- |

I wrote $633 to the VO using the same method as the the date change, it's just a dummy change, i.e. don't actually write to the CAS or LMA. I have been looking at exactly the same! I have taken a door apart and it's a custom bulb holder with a connector the same as the angel eye bulbs. The bulbs look similar too. I'm hoping to machine up some adaptors/cups that the fibre optic cable fits into and takes a Chinese LED angel eye bulb. That's not a priority at the mo! LMA and gearbox first! |

Tried that last night but no effect. I think the issue might have something to do with me adding the +IPOD to my VO before retrofitting the MMI since the older MMI didn't support the iPod kit. It could also be that I used the date of 09/04 as my "mock" production date and the MMI is from 2007 so i didn't get all the options in my trace. I might try a date after 3/2005 and see if that fixes it.
Considering I have to adjust the production date temporarily is there any way of getting the MMI to use a default config based on my cars real VO? I know people do this sometimes after a retrofit to make sure only he options that are installed get activated, but I'm not sure how to do it since I first have to change the production date to access my MMI at all. Thanks, Jeff |

That's ok, it's over engineered like most of the E65/E66! Putting the bulb in the handle would have been far too simple!

Paper, I was able to fix the issue of iPod list being displayed but nothing was selectable (except playlists). It also took 20 minutes or more to load my songs (each and everytime I started my car) and when it did this the iDrive became unresponsive. I was also having an issue with the Auto P not being selectable in iDrive or from the steering wheel custom button, but if I pressed the button on my dash the Auto P worked.
Instead of editing the trace file and then saving it with the .Man extension, I deleted (after backing up) the contents of the file and then wrote it to my MMI causing it to take on the configuration based on my VO. I then made my edits and wrote that to the MMI and my iPod with around 2,000 songs loaded in a couple of minutes and everything is now selectable. So thankfully that is fixed, but I still can't select the Auto P in the iDrive. I have no idea why a feature that to my knowledge has nothing in the MMI file that can activate or de-activate that feature from working still isn't working. No idea what to try next. Other than this all my retrofits are working perfectly with no side effects. Any ideas about why this is happening? Could you please also share the interesting thing you discovered after completing the Bluetooth retrofit? Thanks, Jeff |

So let me know if I understand you right . you deleted the contents of your Trace file ( leaving it blank ) ? then you wrote the blank file to your MMI ??? My question is what about your MAN file , Did you also delete the contents in there ??? if you didn't , then all you did was write the contents from your last edit of what your MMI already had back to it . that would be why your still not able to use the Auto P . You didn't write what your VO has if you did this . Also you don't explain how you fixed the issue , or what line you are referring to that had playlist in it ??? edit = forgot to ask if you had +ipod in your VO when doing this ???

Remember that I had the iPod list, just couldn't select anything other than playlists. The trace file that I posted for you showed it nicht_aktiv, but that file was from an older backup. I hope I explained it better than in my last post. Still can't understand why the Auto P is not selectable. I've been using #0904 as my temporary production date to read the MMI since it's the first one that worked. I may see if I can get a date to work that is closer to the actual production date of the MMI and see if that changes anything. When listening to songs from the iPod does the song information scroll along the bottom for you during the entire song? Mine briefly displays the name of the song, but then I am left with only the song number (i.e. 10, 443, 897). Thanks. |

No the song doesn't scroll during the entire song . ( just the beginning ) As for your Auto P , you need to set it to Aktiv in your MMI trace file for you to have that option back on your screen .

let start over so maybe this time you will understand what I am telling you . 1.st you did not set your MMI to default !!! if you had set it to load your Default VO then your Auto P would be on the screen & working . all you did was reload the MMI trace file you just read without the Aktiv changes you had previously made to it . why did this occur ??? ( because you used a blank Man file ) The MMI's internal memory Re-sets any changes you made when you use a blank Man file . ( this info was given to me by a BMW Master Tech )

Prior to you finalizing the solution for the COAPI-1000 error I had tried resetting the MMI to my VO using the Expert profile but it failed to communicate with the MMI because I hadn't temporarily changed the production date. Are you now telling me to use the Expert profile to temporarily change the production date and then reset the MMI? The only way I think that would work, is if I temporarily edit the Fister profile and uncheck the box that says: FSW-/PSW-Manipulate with FSW_PSW.MAN. This would have the same effect as using the Expert profile (correct me if I'm wrong). Thanks. |

Fister profile to edit your production date & when making changes to your MMI . ( cause the expert will only reset your module unless you modify your expert profile ) if your trying to get your MMI back to factory settings ( or in this case your VO settings ) use the expert profile .

Jeff, whats the exact symptoms of the Auto P your having? Mine has stopped working too, you cannot select Auto P and pressing the multifunction button on the steering wheel does nothing. In my case this has nothing to do with the MMI coding etc.... first time I had a broken handbrake cable, it had rusted solid inside the liner, this caused a malfunction with the electro mechanical parking brake actuator in the boot. this stopped the Auto P from working. There was a warning on the dash that the parking brake was faulty, this stopped the Auto P from working, (even though when the engine is running the brakes are held hydraulically by the ABS unit).
The second time (as after I fixed this problem it has returned!) I think is because I have a fault stored in the gearbox ECU regarding the torque convertor lockup clutch. It appears any errors with the drivetrain or handbrake inhibit the Auto P function, I guess for safety reasons. It may not be this in your case but see if you have any codes stored in the gearbox ECU. A little update on the LMA, it looks bad, no luck talking to the LMA with any software, I found this on TIS: · Processor failure: If the processor fails, the system will switch to emergency operating mode. Emergency operating mode is a hardware feature and thus completely independent of the light module. Emergency-running characteristics if the processor fails: - Vehicle lighting: The following are switched on when terminal 15 is switched ON: At the front the dipped headlights, and at the rear the position lights and the left and right outer brake lights (side lights). The position lights and the left and right outer brake lights are not dimmed to 10% brightness, as is usually the case, but rather operated at full power. ne Vehicle lighting is thus assured, regardless of the position of the light switch. - Brake lights: When terminal 15 is switched ON, the left and right brake lights are switched on when the brake pedal is pressed (via a direct wire from the brake-light switch to the lamp drivers). Malfunctions in the event of processor failure: - No turn signal, no hazard warning lights - No main beam, no headlight flasher - No front or rear foglights - No additional centre brake light - No communication via the K-CAN - No communication with the trailer module These are the exact symptoms I have, it would appear that nothing can communicate via OBD because the LMA cannot communicate on the K-CAN. This means there is no way of recovering the unit over OBD. Looks like a new LMA is needed! problem is this unit also stores a backup of the mileage, this is looking very difficult to change myself and going to be a real headache! |

The gearbox errors that I have do not illuminate any lamps or show errors in the iDrive display. Yes you can, select E65, find the transmission ECU in the list, then read errors. You can clear errors too, manually actuate the mechatronic solenoids etc... Very useful! It's the same as DIS but more difficult to use. Yeah, as it will cost over £500 for the dealer to repair I will take a gamble and try and code a used unit. Stuart. |

Hi AceFx, sorry to be off topic but I wanted to change my M-ASK and MMI have found a BMW Breaker who has all the stuff I need which is from an facelift late 2006 E65.
I was wondering if I could get the Dashsoft software off of you, and also wanted to know if I could get all the relevent usb firmware or adapters files as well. Im very impressed with your work which you have so far done on your E66, your videos are also very very helpful. Many thanks in advance. Last edited by D4T_POM; 04-10-2012 at 04:05 PM. |
