FIFO must be enabled? Tx and Rx set to "8"?? The hell is this, I don't have these options in my COM settings? The newer FTDI drivers do not have this feature. It's fine. It'll work. Just lower latency to "1". Leave rest default. If you decide to get the drivers straight from FTDI, reference this post for some clarification.

Hmmm still not working. What gives? Reference this INPA FAQ | MediaFire Mirror

1.4 IFH-0003: Data transmission HOST/Interface failed

Reason 1: In the Ediabas.ini file, the interface is set to STD:OBD. However, you have connected an ADS connector.
Solution 1: Modify the interface setting.

Reason 2: The data transmission failed when sending (e.g. short circuit in the line).
Solution 2: Get rid of the short circuit, for example.

Reason 3: Connector not connected or no power supplied.
Solution 3: Check whether the connector is connected and is supplied with power.

Reason 4: The device manager has been used to disable the FIFO buffer for COM1.
Solution 4: In the device manager (Windows XP: Enter “Start” ; “Control Panel” ;“System”
; “Hardware” ; “Device Manager” ; Ports (COM & LPT)), and then select COM1 from the ports. Then under the “Port Settings” tab, select “Advanced”. There must be a check-mark by “Use FIFO buffers” and “8” must be selected for the receive buffer and transmit buffer.

anyone know if the Unlock Doors on Keyfob Removal works with shutting off the car on Comfort Access (since I don't use a keyfob..)

[q_jonblaze]

thanks..will follow up those leads

Hi all, I just recently purchased my 2007 335i sedan with iDrive and am very interested in this coding stuff. I'm an electrical engineer and about half of my job is writing code. I don't have a cable and I was wondering if anyone could send me all the files that get read out of an e90 so I can look through them and see what the possibilities are before I order my own cable. I would prefer to have them in the same directory structure that they are in when read from the ECU. This way I could make a simple menu based program to change settings and make it easier to turn things on and off. I could even include other years in the program if someone can just get me the files from that year. Just let me know if you can send me the files. Since I haven't had 5 posts yet I might not be able to receive PMs... But I'll try to get in 5 posts soon.

dnadeau13, everything you need is here. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=480261

So, I've read through the NCS_DIY.pdf. In step 49 when you make the backup of FSW_PSW.TRC containing all the modules, it looks like all the modules were read into the same file all in one step at one time. Can you not just edit a copy of that and reload all of the modules at the same time or do you need to do each module independently?

What I really was asking in my first post was if anyone could send me that first FSW_PSW.TRC that contains all the modules, preferably for an 07 e90.

Thanks

Yes, you can. There's an option for "Code Entire Vehicle" or similar. You can select this instead of selecting an individual ECU.

[cbetlyon]

can any one shed some light on this error?

I've got one of the serial style cables for sale on eBay. Somebody here can use it so here's the link:

I will be getting to it as time allows but from my understanding, you must change the VO as shown in post #506, as well as update it in the respective module, and install it per the Sirius retrofit instructions. I plan to change the VO, then install it, then update the module in that order.

HTH..

I'm trying to disable the DRL (Canadian car) but I don't have NFRM in the list of sub-modules (Step 55 in DIY)...I have NFRM on the main screen along with CAS and FRM (step 53 in DIY) and it does contain the "TAGFAHRLICHT_ECE_1", but I'm assuming this is not the NFRM I should be editing...I looked in sub-modules KOMBI and FRM (step 55 in DIY) and they do not contain the "TAGFAHRLICHT_ECE_1"...please advise...

[cbetlyon]

sorry to bother every one with my errors. but this error is some thing i haven't herd about.

[The_DDub]

My wifey ordered me a cable for V-Day! I'll be coding my car soon. I was wondering what lines to add for:

To disable the iDrive warning screen
To add a factory alarm

Once I get this down, I can offer coding services in the Bay Area. I'll def kick some back to OP's school fund.

i tried that. it worked kind of...basically when opening the application it will run as admin, then flash a error window but not stay displayed. the error window disappears after half a second and i get a audio error dong.

I am in pain reading your post. It is very simple to install. Download the .rar file posted on the first post and send me a PM. I can help you with the installation.

[antiks]

I have gotten inpa to read and everything; when i run ncsexpert i get this after i load the chasis and then try and load the CAS



same thing on an 07 335i and an 06 328i; using the ebay k-dcan cable..any reason why this error would show?

Guys, any recommendation on the above? I looked through all the sub-modules under the main CAS module and none have the "TAGFAHRLICHT_ECE_1". Should I be doing it in the main CAS module itself? If yes, how? I tried skipping these steps in the DIY that take you into the sub-modules:

F4 – (Select Module)......[Process ECU]
F4 – Again....................[Read ECU]

and I copied/edited the .TRC file of the main CAS itself, which is 222 kb compared to 1-26 kb for the sub-modules .TRC files. However when I hit OK after step

(Select) COAPIReadSgETSwPSW

it gave me an error about some invalid parameter...I also tried "Process Car" and "Code Car" options but I got errors there as well...
Below is snapshot of the sub-modules I get after selecting the main CAS module...one is scrolled all the way up, the other all the way down...

Im also having the exact same problem. I can see the proper code in the main module of the whole car, but cannot find it it in the sub modules?

Anyone experience this similar issue and point us in the right direction?

I think quite a few people did (I know I am one of them) but I haven't seen a solid answer yet on what to do.
