Coding: BDC_BODY2

Anyone have insight on properly reading BDC_BODY2?

With Esys 2.7.1 and PSDZ 61.4 it still only shows a bunch of periods next to everything and no details. Who has successfully gotten into this for coding?

You need to either update your Launcher or, if you are using Premium, select correct chassis. I do not have trouble reading any G012/G030 ECU.

I tried using two different versions of the launcher and updated prior to making the post, am using PRO, and this is the latest PSDZ afaik...do you have any other suggestions?

There are 4 CAFDs in BDC_BODY2, (17BC, 17BD, 1DF7, 1DF8) the only one that shows periods and no functions is CAFD_000017BC_103_036_153, others load up fine. The CAFD shows up in my files.

PSdZ is unmapped and updating will not help unless you get "not found [C012]" errors when "Read Coding Data."

I am aware there are 4 CAFD's and you should be able to read them all. Depending on I-Step, parts are unmapped, but the majority are mapped and you should not see only periods. For complete CAFD_ID list, see here.

The only solution I know is using latest Launcher software (ie 2.7.1). Here are images from E-sys and NCD / CAFD Tool for what you should see:

Thanks for your help Almaretto. Got the CAFD to stop showing periods after a couple attempts reconnecting to the car. That said, a lot of the values still come up as "unmapped value" Any idea what causes that? That CAFD list is helpful, too. Thanks again.

Launcher uses legacy data to map PSdZ. So, as new FDL's are added, functions move around, leaving both incorrect/invalid and unknown data.

Mapping currently is based on P3.59.4 I believe. We are left either making educated guesses and/or waiting for TM to update.

I am using Launcher 2.7.1 Pro with 61.4 PSDZ, BDC I read from my car shows like this and I am not able to locate where "FLC_Aktiv" is, my headlight is not able to be turned off (even in switch "0") when it is dark. That is very annoying P.S. Not mine G12, I got a the other G30 in my hometown.

Mapping is based on legacy files (~P3.59.4). Therefore, as new functions are added (changing bitmasks/moving FDL's around), ECU's start having unmapped regions. This is the case with BDC_Body in G012/G030 starting in 3.61.x.

FLC_Aktiv is present and can be found by reading comments or simply VO coding certain options.

EDIT: Position 0 is DRL. Lighting is in FLM.

I'm seeing the same issue BUT intermittently. I have PSDZ 61.5 Lite and Latest version of E-sys.

Also, couple of times when I clicked on "Edit FDL" then E-sys crashed without any error messages.

That should work. You can also try G11 or G12.

I am also having a problem with only the dots showing when I set high memory in launcher premium.

When I set medium it is ok.

However when I set medium and then read 17BC@BDC_BODY2 of G30, edit, save and then code FDL there is be out of memory error.

I'm using E-Sys 3.27.1, Launcher Premium 2.7.1 and PSdZ 3.62.1

E-sys uses Java contiguous memory and BDC is a large module. So, you sometimes have to close and reopen E-sys to clear out to complete desired functions. You can also delete, or temporarily move, unneeded KISWB.

Tried with memory set to "medium" and it worked fine then

But still: I cannot find the values to either disable ASS or set it to "last used setting". Bummer...

Setting is not in BDC_Body.

Hi guys,

I have been fighting with this BDC unmapped sections and it seems like I cannot get it to work.

I have reinstalled java allowing the Launcher to run with 4GB ram (this solved the memory issue) but all of the folders are appearing with '.' (screenshot enclosed).

I am using E-Sys 3.30 with Launcher Pro 2.8.1.155 with latest datens and success is 0. Tried dozen of times to restart (application as well as windows), reread the module, open the CAFD in the FDL editor - nothing worked.

The rest of the modules are appearing fine.

That is not mapped in 2.8. You need 3.x for mapping.

Thanks, will go for the update.

I have read a lot of threads and I saw people with Launcher 2.7 even having the BDC mapped and was struggling why I cannot make it run

17BC, maybe. But, for 5FA9, you need to update.
