New link to the revised Part 2 (the coding How-To) has been added to post 1.

The How-To has had a few minor revisions, the content is basically the same but with a couple of typos corrected :thumbsup:

If anyone is interested in Cruise Control but don't fancy messing with the coding then I'm happy to undertake this for you.
I'm based in Grantham, Lincolnshire, PM me and we can talk about your requirements :thumbsup:

I'm also looking at producing an instructional video on this retro-fit as well, once the weather warms up a bit :D

Sorry about that.

I was lucky, let the positive on and by attaching a charger I could send voltage to the trunk motor, key opened it :rofl:

Have you read this post:

viewtopic.php?f=23&t=111701

There might be a few pointers there to make sure you have everything correct.

thanks, I'll check

went for a short ride to see whether the control works, it doesn't

so the coding didn't go down 100% and I have the two fault codes

coding: I used the software I got with the cable and from setting Vehicle Order I had different commands available, though I did select FRM etc., so this could a reason where it went south

I'll install now the sw package you have in the guide and give it another try

at least I didn't brick the car :rofl:

so, I started using the package from the guide, repeating all the step from the beginning

1. at step 18 I already had wert_02 for TEMPOMAT_SETZ_ANZ_DAUER, this got written OK into FSW_PSW.TRC

2. anyhow I coded this again and arrived to this screen NCSExper:

3. at step 21 I didn't have this MANUAL profile or any of the others what is shown in the guide on this picture:
Screen Shot 03-23-19 at 06.56 PM.PNG
Screen Shot 03-23-19 at 06.56 PM.PNG (72.26 KiB) Viewed 2560 times

since now I'm using the software from the guide, I expected this profile available

when I did this the first time, I missed that I tried to achieve coding using the commands available and perhaps this is the cause of the problem

I guess these profiles come with the install, but I don't have it after the install, strange

Dave, could you please share the PFL directory from your NCSExper install? (profile files are quite small)

thanks

more info, tried another install of Easy BMW Tools and the profile coming with it

whichever app or profile I used I ended up not getting FRM listed in the dialog box to write Vehicle Order there as well
(writing into CAS the famous $544 was OK, it appears just fine as already added)

why don't I get FRM listed for the 2nd VO job?

I got it here at Step 7, just like it is in the guide, but going from her to try coding the VO into FRM doesn't work
