[QUOTE="jarance, post: 508068, member: 21"] 328i, guten Tag to you. Danke for visiting our forum from Germany. I will try my best to answer some of you question. Q: I have a E46 from 12/98 with a 20 pin adapter. Went fine. But car ident don't working. The first line is green an the second one went red and then with this error: "LCM: FA reading error". Then I see only the VIN and odometer. What's wrong? [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]A: The chances is that your 20pin adapter might not be connected properly to your scanner. In addition, the car identity would only works or module can only be detected when the Igniton Key is turn to position 2 or the car is started and running. However, some modules can be detected even the igniton key is in OFF position. [I]Note: Oil reset can only be done when the engine is [B]OFF[/B]. [/I][/COLOR] Q: But is it possible to code optical acknowledgement of closing/opening (not arming/disarming because he has no alarm) a E46 320d from 2002 from my friend??? We tried but not working in DWA arming/disarming optical. Also automatic locking after 2 min. not working! Why? [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]A: it is possible to have optical acknowledgement of closing/opening of the door even though you dont have DWA. However, the acoustics will not work if you dont have DWA because the acoustics use the buzzer instead of the car horn. Most of use divert it to the side lamp instead of the low beam or high beam. Automatic autolock after 2 minutes will only work if all the doors, front bonnet and rear bonnet are closed. This is a feature to prevent your key from trapped in the car. Check your door switch and bonnet switch. If I am not mistaken, you can use the scanner to check whether all the switches are working or not. Please take note the autolock will be cancel when the GM5 see a door or boot is open. [/COLOR] Q: We both using the last scanner version 1.4.0.8. And you?? [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]A: Yes, I am also using 1.4.0.8 which is what we download from bmw-scanner.com. [/COLOR] Q: What means "arming, doors closed - optical"?! I don't understand. Do you have a scenario for me? This was the only one which was activated at the car of my friend. But he hasn't the DWA ecu. Can we do it with Inpa/Ediabas? I have it already. Or maybe with Carsoft 6.5 or another tool?? A : [COLOR="RoyalBlue"]"arming, doors closed - optical" means that the light (high beam or low beam or signal light) will flashed one time when all doors are locked properly.
