Coding!

Hi all.

So who's got any coding planned? What are you going to do? And also how do you do it with this car?

I know in previous models one had to plug in the laptop with a special cable and software. I saw something on YouTube about just using a USB stick or something. What's the crack with the g30?

I have coded two so far.

Fxx-/Ixx-/Gxx-series vehicles all use ENET cable and E-sys software.

The same kinds of things can be coded as on previous models, but more are standard from factory.

I have it on my F015 & F010 as well.

Traditionally, certain HUD coding like turn signals cannot be enabled on DKOMBI (Digital 6WB instrument cluster). Though the G030 & G012 have a different ECU than that of the 6-series, I have not actually attempted to code.

Do you know where to change the speedlock on the rear and front cam, it used to be on PAM or PDC. but I don't see it on the G030 anywhere?

I did, but I'm getting nothing in there.

Something is not being read correctly. In iCam i have bunch of junk not like the other modules. Like 3000 ., FC and so on.

I can't get the BDC_BODY2 to read coding data either.

I'm getting an error file for cafd_......., not found [C012]. I used pro launcher with version 3.27 and 3.28
And i have the full PSdZData

What do you think is wrong.

Out of curiosity, why do you want Cameras at all speeds? The coding disables distance and speed auto-shutoff so then you manually must toggle a different screen.

Full Psdzdata is a waste of space (80 GB) unless you are planning to flash program. For coding, all you need is one Lite version (2 GB)

Are you using Pro Launcher 2.7.1? iCAM should look like this:

No. You will not need a new activation code. 2.6.1 should have same mapping as 2.7.1, the ladder has some additional optimization. Link never changes, so you can download and install update.

Strange. How about if you load files in NCD / CAFD Tool?

I just think It's not reading the ECU correctly because on the header the ecuname is blank on the module.

CAFD_0000207C is unmapped on my system too. I also seemed to have missed that ECU in my recent CAFD_ID PDF update.

The rest of your ECU's should map. I have not seen car yet with ATM2 or iCAM4.
