Those errors could be 2 things: out of date daten files, or those modules aren't responding to K+DCAN and would need a different interface by default. |

I'm in a bit of a bind.
I bought a replacement battery back in late December for my car as it wouldn't start by turning over. Iswung by my local Walmart and bought the Everstart Maxx-H8 which was a near, if not 1:1 size match for my stock factory battery (S: 61216946334). I only now can register the battery myself as I got a coding cable, but what I didn't realize was that I needed to enter battery specifications as this new batter is larger for CCA@ 760 vs 720 so that battery registration would be precise. I'm at a loss now what to do. I've called Johnson Battery Control Group via the customer support number on the battery, but the lady who I spoke with explained that the only advertised specification was the 760CCA rating. WALMART, as it turns out is for whatever reason withholding the additional specifications. I don't know if that because its such a cheap battery, they cannot be reliably produced with whatever specification is baseline, enough to not be a liability or something like that, maybe I'm reading too much into it. Though that still leaves me unsure of how to proceed. Aside from buying batteties that have stats listed in the future. I know nothing of batteries, but I guess I could infer that the Everstart Maxx-H8: Non-AGM (wet type) CCA: 760 A: Likely also 760 RC:? AH:? 12V Dunno how to proceed, really. |

Assuming that JC makes the same battery for Walmart as Autozone (both are rated at 760 CCA and both made by JC) and the AutoZone battery RC is rated at 100 min, then using the RC to AH converter formula of Amp/Hours = (Reserve Capacity / 2) plus 16, you get 66 AH. I'd use the closest setting (70 AH?) in your coding.

Hope this helps some. I have put the steps into a DIY guide for those of us with newer Bimmers where INPA can't help us, and for those that may need to change the AH rating the car is coded for, and how to figure that out from Reserve Capacity rating (thanks jimk), etc.
I have copied the coding steps from coding DIY guide posted by xxxjecxxx (thanks and hope he doesn't mind!). The registration steps were assembled from information in this thread, and my own experiences of learning how to use the Tool 32 software. Enjoy! Last edited by wilsjay; 02-20-2012 at 07:24 AM.. |

Read lots of posts and have installed/have NCS Expert working. Can you be a little more specific on what "code the whole car" means? Is this "process car?" Can you provide a bit more instruction?! Thnx! |

I get the following error when trying to register my battery using tool32 "JOB_STATUS = ERROR_ECU_CONDITIONS_NOT_CORRECT_OR_REQUEST_SEQUEN CE_ERROR
I was able to update the CAS to 70AH and verified it in INPA. I just can't seem to get tool32 to do the registration. Any ideas on the error? |

Yes, the ignition is on and I tried it with the car running and not running.
I'm not sure what the issue could be. The communication seems to be good since I can use INPA and Expert just fine. I don't have a tune. |

Have you attempted to use method 2 since your INPA is good? |

I did try method 2 and received the exact same error message that Tool32 gave me. So I assume the error message is generated by the module and the program just reports it.
Here is the snapshot of the error in case the pic doesn't work here is the link http://www.freeimagehosting.net/441zu Last edited by jacobsed; 04-11-2012 at 07:06 PM.. |

thanks to cn555ics and 335okc, i was able to figure out a way to register my battery without running into the "ERROR_ECU_CONDITIONS_NOT_CORRECT....." error.
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...645844&page=10 i read post #217 and downloaded cn555ic's recommended file from post #165. turns out my INPA version was too new and downgraded the INPA files and registered the battery successfully both ways for the heck of it using tool32 and inpa. both gave me the golden "OKAY" status. my only question is...i used walmart's everstart maxx h7 which replaced the maxx 94r. it is rated at 790cca however i couldn't find a reserve capacity or an aH rating and resorted to searching up a few different brands that have the h7 battery hoping for a ballpark guesstimate since alot of these batteries are manufactured by the same company. i ended up finding a few different brands with the same 790cca and LxWxH spec and came up with a common 140 reserve capacity. using the formula (RC/2)+16 i can assume this battery is at about 86aH. since our vehicle doesn't have a 85ah, what klasse_batterie setting would you guys recommend: 80ah or 90ah? |

I changed the VO number in the CAS from 90 - 80. Is that the only place that the order # needs to be changed to properly register an AH change?
The messages in this DIY are very confusing and inconsistent. A nice step by step would be golden, even the pdf file provided was not what was stated in the DIY. What I am confused about is if I need to process FRM as well as the CAS at this point is processed the CAS didn't touch anything else and then registered the battery. the VO stuck to the CAS. Anything else I need to change??? |

problem registering a new OEM battery for e90
Quote:
Other files MSV80.prg, MSV70.prg not working either. What's wrong with my setup? Am I missing any files? Tried two INPA RAR files that I found in this forum with the same results. INPA seems to be working fine for me though. Appreciate any help... |
