What is the most easy way to correct milage?

I have K+DCAN usb interface with NCSexpert, Ediabas, Winkfp, ISTA/P.

Thank you very much! thumbsup

Desolder eeprom from cluster. Delete VIN and change mileage. Put back and code it and write vin with NCS.

Thank you!

Oh shit, i have never soldered before. Is it not possible to do it using just software coding?

Thank you friend!

hi

VIN can't be changed with coding so you still have to remove eeprom. Sorry.

Hello!

*But here they show how to change using WinKFP:

*And here they say its possible with Chinese BMW SCANNER version with special K+DCAN units.

*And using NCS expert, but i cant find a guide on how to do it.


Maybe it should work using this for R56 mini cooper?
Or the problem is you can't change the Vin on all modules using this softwares?

I only want to change in the tachometer. (Kombi Module?).

Thank you very much!!

No, only way is desolder it. After you modify eeprom, you will write new VIN with WinKFP or NCS and code it to default values. Mileage will synchronize automatically after that.

Hmm.

Are you sure?

Becouse many people say it is possible, only you say it is not possible.

:O ?

I only know the ways by desoldering, or with a good programmer and a clip you can do it in curcuit, but you have to disamble your cluster


RE: How to correct VIN / Milage easily - Czozen - 22-06-2015

Tontito, as Chriz said. You have to disassemble cluster and use programmer to change VIN to (FF) and milage to (00), after that, turn NCS Expert On, and SG_CODIEREN -> Execute Job on Your KOMBI instrument.

You can change vin in modules in bmws \ minis, except for a few. e.g kombi, cas, dme\dde
