@DreamCar; Do you mean the green cruise control icon? Yeah I have that in my HUD if the cruise control is enabled (doesn't have to be active but at least stand-by).


Btw, good news, I just saw this when checking the tracking: "Your item was processed through our HONOLULU, HI 96820 facility on May 23, 2012 at 11:49 pm." I'm betting it is here either tomorrow or Friday at the latest

@ Hans Gregor......When it asks to save files where do we place the saved files to what folder?

For anyone not too keen on soldering, an option to buy one from http://codecard.lt/electronics/tools/enet-cable/prod_651.html was mentioned earlier in the thread. I finally received mine today.

It took 9 days to arrive in the UK (from Lithuania) using the cheapest delivery option. This is an expensive way of obtaining a cable, but I checked the wiring using a multimeter and it is all correct (including the correct resistance between pins 8 and 16 of the OBD plug). It does look to be well made. Pins 4 and 5 don't appear to be grounded, but by all accounts that's not necessary. I got a bit impatient and built my own in the meantime, but I wanted to confirm that this cable will work.

Thanks for the update Ian. I ordered mine from them and it has been sitting in Canadian Customs since last Friday. I was hoping to get it earlier this week but now I'm off again so even if it arrives tomorrow I can't get at it until later next week.

You are my last hope/option ... Now i am very desperate!.

Get a Pro account thats what we all did... You can download the entire thing in couple of hours

We are any way saving lot of money because of this free coding :thumbup:

I do have PRO

For some reason (my ISP?) rapidshare is 10->20KB/s download. Could someone post ONLY the F10 part of v46.3? That would sure help.

I want to fold mirrors

Shoot a PM to gspannu, he can help you with sharing his FTP site and files, he has the full v46.3 file and shared them with whoever ask him. He sure has helped me a lot

Thanks to both for the update, I purchased mine from there as well just last week and was a little nervous. Hopefully when it arrives I can become an E-sys junkie and help some others like you guys

Guys, question.

I downloaded the PSDZATA and also the EST_PIN.sfv, EST_PIN.RAR and 3.18.Nfo.

Can somebody please tell me which one is the actual ESYS program?

Can someone also tell me where is the readme file that links everything together?

Sorry, but really confused and so many post to track.

Thanks

Not sure where you downloaded from. I found a torrent download for e-sys with the following .txt file, which I found to be the most complete reference for getting started:

View attachment E-Sys - Installation Instructions.pdf

Do you have all of the required files, including \\BMW E-Sys\E-Sys Program\E-Sys_Setup.exe? I used this file to install e-sys.

I'm a newb and I'm stuck!

I'm stuck!! Everything is connected and I followed all the instruction on "HOW TO INSTALL ESys". I'm following the PDF instructions "Getting Started Coding" to simply have my windows close when i push the lock button. On page six it says select CAFD only one with green arrow. I'm supposed to click on the CAFD_0000000F_005_019_005 and then hit
READ (VCM)

Two things:

-my vehicle CAFD_0000000F_005_021_005 reads 21 not 19 is that a problem?

-When I hit Read (VCM) button nothing happens. The CAFD_0000000F_005_021_005 is highlighted. It's not going to a Read Coding Data

I tried searching and I cant find anything. So I'm stuck at this point. I want to contribute and help out but I'm at a loss!!!

Thanks

 

[cn555ic]

You have to right click the Green cafd file and right click and find read coding data. It's not on the PDF for that part of instruction. After it reads it the PDF is 100% perfect

first: connect your cable to the car and the ethernet port of your laptop
optional: use ZGW_search.exe, to see if you can see the car connected

start e-sys
click the small icon CONNECT button
select you car model
select CONNECT BY VIN
go to expert mode
click CODING
read FA from your car (if you want, you can save it)
right click on the FA, select ACTIVATE
click READ VCM button
on the buttom, filter by CAFD
right click the CAFD and select READ CODING DATA
edit your CAFD
save it
hit the back button
select you CAFD again
click CODE FDL

.When it asks to save files where do we place the saved files to what folder?

normally, every time you read data from the car, the CAF files in the E-sys/CAF folder will get updated.
normally, I would recommend that first time you start programming your car, right click on the SVT and select read coding
this way all the CAFD will be in your CAF folder
navigate there, make a copy nof them and paste them in a secure place. never touch those
in case one messes with something will have a back-up copy of the config in your car

for the rest, you can just leave the default folder or again, you can make a backup, first time

Anybody got any idea what Video WatchDog does.

HU_CIC 3001 EXBOX, 78 VIDEO WATCHDOG NIGHTVISION

HU_CIC 3001 EXBOX, 78 VIDEO WATCHDOG TOP VIEW

HU_CIC 3001 EXBOX, 78 VIDEO WATCHDOG REARVIEW

I also notice that I go into Esys and look at the values. The default is usually nicht aktiv and you have to activate it by a new value of aktiv, Well when I go in it's already in aktiv! Why is that? Do I have to change it if it's already aktiv to nicht aktiv? I'm just scratching my head. For instance fold mirror with lock option was already aktiv. But when I hold down the lock button nothing happens. The instructions said to active it.

@DreamCar I know, same here.. sadly enough the cable is not yet at the local post office (if I have to believe the online tracking, so I guess it will be tomorrow).

Darn it.. I was really hoping to the cable today as we will be getting the keys to a new house tomorrow lol.. guess I'm going to have to stress my marriage a bit tomorrow when I download those files you guys need
