I try to flash my ZBE3 with Esys and it gives me som errors, see screenshot, i have also attached my FA File, SVT_Soll and Tal file if anyone want to check if there are some problems.

I-Step shipment is F010-12-07-533 and I-Step Target is F10-22-11-510 and I-Step current is F10-21-03-520

This is a bench setup with a NBT, ZBE3 and a ZGW 02 8SK

My car is a 2011 F11 530D with all the modules upgraded to I-Step level
F10-22-11-510 (Used to be F010-10-09-510, which was the car Shipment level)

The plan is to Put the NBT, ZBE3 and the ZGW 02 8sk along with a ICM 2 module.

But before i put these modules into the car i want them all on the same I-Step level as the I-Step level in my car.

btw, is it possible to copy the txt in the logfile inside the E-sys flashing page? as it would be better than to take a screenshot.

STOP breaking your car, as you clearly have no idea what you are doing. Your ZBE3 is ALREADY at the LATEST firmware level for it. And you're actually LUCKY it refuses to accept INCOMPATIBLE software.

---

P.S. You are again using "HWIDs from actual" button without even TRYING to understand what it's ACTUALLY for.

---

P.P.S. It's for FORCING unit to accept incompatible software. 99% of cases result is DEAD unit.

---

P.P.P.S. BTLD 000011A0_001_002_000 which you are dying to force into your ZBE is for HWEL 0000119E_001_001_000 ONLY!!! And your HWEL is VERY DIFFERENT!!!

My car wont be broken as i have done nothing with it yet.

Originally it is a 2011 530 F11 with CIC, i upgraded it with NBT and emulator from Bimmerretrofit and drove around for a couple of years with it until i got some error with the tire pressure, only solution was to revert back to the original CIC unit and i managed to get rid of the error code, i then replaced the CIC unit with a CIC unit with built in DAB tuner, that was until i decided to map the DME (Dont worry, by professional tuner of course)

But beofre i sent it to the tuner i put the original CIC unit and ampflifier back into the car and updated the cars I-Step.

And now i want to put the NBT unit back in, but withouth the Emulator, i guess i can inject FSC codes for maps anyway (i mean withouth the emulator)


So if i were to put the NBT, ZBE3 and the ZGW back into the car what would you suggest?

Btw, i'm following a guide i found Called:

Upgrading ECU’s on BMW F11 520d.pdf

So its not like i'm doing things i don't know, well that is some of it, but i'm learning underway, then i bought the car some years ago i didn't even know what Esys was or coding FDL's and FA which i can do with no problem.

I recently learned to edit the SVT's in the built into the Esys and was trying to flash my other ZGW, which is a Mid02 to 4sk, i found out i had to change the ZGW to ZGW2 in the editor, but that is as far as i am with that now, so i'm learning all the way.



btw, how do you know that the ZBE3 has the latest files availible, do you have a guide or something i could read all this to understand it better?

Lets be frank. 95% of guides are written by people who did something (and that worked) but without any understanding how to PROPERLY do that. And ESPECIALLY what NOT to do. So I'm really not familiar with the guide you mentioned.

Guides are good as starting point for something. You read what guy did, then try to UNDERSTAND what each action he did ACTUALLY does. And that's how you learn.

Regarding latest, I know because KIS data does not have any reference for next-in-line firmware for that specific part number you posted. And it's really time consuming to check manually so I made my own software to check that. So no guide.
