Using BMW Scanner 1.4 to change Transport Mode (or Energy Saving Mode) to Normal Mode.

Worth a punt it won't break the bank, if it isn't compatable with you E86 you can sell it on here for a small loss.
 
I have invested in a Launch Tablet Scanner and Programmer £300 with 2years free updates, it scans all worldwide makes not just BMW. Bought it for coding airbag modules which have been cropping up with fellow owners cars and require used replacements to be coded with the cars Vin Number, have yet to code one successfully due to duff replacement modules being supplied. However the Launch is capable of deleting Transport Mode have done this on my car and a fellow members car so far. Will be doing another one sometime that is not used as a regular car and frequently has a flat battery, no battery drain as far as I know just the annoying Transport mode being set when the battery gets low.
 
Blimey you're gonna be an even more popular guy on this forum with one of those.

Didn't get round to deleting TM yet. Luckily it's been nice and balmy this week so I've been enjoying the windows down and seat warmers on low.
 
Bit of info on deleting Transport Mode that I have found out after purchasing a Launch Tablet Scanner (Chinese Clone). being interested in all things diagnostic I wanted kit that simplified scanning and coding and not just BMW. The Launch kit cost me £300 but am very happy with its capabilities for all makes worldwide and especially the BMW range. This kit can delete transport mode from the car and not just reset it. When you run the coding sequence it removes the TransportMode settings from all of the modules it resides in so it will never invoke the mode when low battery conditions arise. Have deleted it from my E85 and a few other members cars as and when they pay me a visit,

Sorry to resurrect an older post. I'm working on getting transport mode removed off my 07' E86 and was looking into the Launch tablets. They have about 100 different versions and wondered if you would mind sharing which model you have.

Thanks

Whereabouts are you. I understand you are looking to remove it, but if you need it reset right now I can do it in under 5 minutes.

I am in the States. I'd like to have a scanner unit I can break out as problems arise. I have the INPA software, but I thought it might be nice to have a dedicated stand alone unit. Not a huge rush, just something I'd like to get removed

Ah, fair enough then.
Good luck.

I think I'm in transport mode. I disconnected the battery for a few minutes and when I put it back together the dash lights don't work, a/c is out, soft top doesn't work etc. I have the bmw scanner v1.4.0, and it runs, but I get two errors when starting it up. IKE and another error. Not sure if that matters, but when I clear the codes the option to "set unit mode" is grayed out. I can't reprogram it and set it to normal....

I tried to soldering pins 1 and 2 on the scanner board suggested on another forum and that didn't do anything...

Anybody know what's happening here?
