Does it read any modules ?.
Have you not got the obd port as well inside the car.

 

it reads 6 out of the 13 modules fitted, it does not read abs,dme,lcm
there is no obd port inside the car.
from what i gather even if i had the obd2 port inside the car, you still need the 20 pin under the bonnet to read all modules fitted
L line was discontinued before mine was built as it uses k line only
L line for the ads protocol used pin 15 when pin 15 was fitted

 

If you were using a laptop with BMWs INPA software i would inform you that only the engine codes are readable and all other modules will require an ADS converter lead to gain access maybe this is a similar problem ?

 

pa soft 1.36 - i can read srs, ike, zke, rad, but nothing else. the yank bimmerfest users say they can read everything.

 

Is pa-soft 1.4.0 going to be better.
I did have it at one time but not now but it can be downloaded free.

 

I have it working now - ignition on, the only way it reads all of the modules, despite everyone's advice that you only need position 2.
have fitted an lcm3 instead of my old lcm2 and coded it with the correct algorithm and mileage so the .tamper dot disappears. however, no indicators or main beam if using the stalk. Also headlamp bulb out warning as i have aftermarket hid in both main and dipped headlights. I don't think pa soft can program the lcm to sort the stalk issue but can turn off the cold and hot check for the headlights - bugger

 

Glad you got it working but can't help you with the other problems.
