![]() ![]() Will allow communication with all E36 modules.These cables require a true serial port (USB->Serial will not work).Full Disclosure: I helped Bimmergeeks with their cables and some software and was gifted one of their pro-cables as a thanks, but otherwise have not received any sort of compensation financial or otherwise.Alternatively you can flash the fixed firmware yourself using an ASP programmer (search ediabaslib firmware).It is therefore recommended to buy Bimmergeeks’ Pro Cable if you’re going to be flashing modules on MY2008+ BMWs.This firmware error can cause some modules to be bricked The vast majority of these cables have flawed firmware that can cause some errors in D-CAN mode (no impact to K-line mode used on pre-09/2007 cars).Some will come with a built-in switch to connect or disconnect pins 7 and 8 together (2010+ BMWs need pins 7 and 8 to be disconnected at the cable end).Supports all the cars that K-line interfaces support, plus D-CAN BMWs (BMWs built from 09/2007 onward, however do note that functionality is limited on Fxx vehicles).For USB interfaces, you want one with the FTDI FT232RL chip (others may work, but this is proven to be reliable).On cars with the 20-pin connector, you’ll need an adapter to access non-powertrain modules.Will require pins 7 and 8 to be bridged together to access non-powertrain modules.On E36 and earlier models, functionality is limited.Supports most BMWs from the mid 90s until 09/2007.So before you get started, you’ll need an OBDII interface. That said, I will not cover those applications in this post, they will likely be covered elsewhere. There are some diagnostic functions that can be useful. Generally they require significantly more computing resources, are somewhat clunky to use, and not much more functional than what the Ediabas suite can do. But in a lot of modules, especially newer cars, there are functions that were never enabled from the factory, which can be fun to play with.īMW Dealerships also have a set of software for diagnosis/coding. Most options are there simply to allow for regional configurations, dealer configurations, different equipment, etc. Most BMWs since the 1990s have had some capability of being “coded” – that means some features can be altered / enabled with the use of the right software and hardware.
