iDrive controller not working - SOLUTION FOUND

43K views 18 replies 7 participants last post by  HerbP  
hello to all.i have a similar problem, somehow.
i have e61 touring 2005.
it had ccc with nagi, big screen, which died(famous restart loop and black screen and so on)
i have now m ask and small screen.
my problems are:
1.idrive controller does not behave as it shoult. it spins relatively freely, not much resistance( when i had ccc it had resistance and it stopped rotating when you cannnot scroll anymore)
i have full funcionality in climate basic control - and in obc menu,but otherwise it does not work as expected.
when it is in idrive menu, the one that opens when you start the car, i can rotate the knob. i do not know if this is normal.
2.sound is not the same with mask - had vo and fa 640 and 677 written in the car, and i have 2 subwoofers under the seats.i have some crackle,and the right side is not as loud as the left side.
3. i have mask module and most gw with different numbers, i suspect different vin in modules.i have tried to code them with winkfp but i failed big time, i cannot find mostgw - sgbd mcgw60 and zb 6983847 , and also mmi/ccc with zb 6983833.
i have succesfully coded zbe with my own car's vin, with winkfp - i forgot to take out the key and the car had thrown all kinds of christmas tree errors on the dash, my cid restartet, but otherwise good.i have checked in inpa and now zbe module is with the same vin as the rest of them, except mostgw with addr 62, and mmi/ccc with addr 63.
4.i had a mulf module, which i think died, and i coded that out from vo order, i deleted 640 from vo order, and disconnected the connector and applied most bypass.

any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.
