BMW E61, can't connect to CHAMP HU with NCS - GoNz0- - 16-09-2023
I'm doing this over teamviewer, he does have the latest standard tools installed. ISTA does show the HU.
When I try to read it in NCS I get the MASK option, not CHAMP, it throws the error coapi-2020 ifh-0009
I found a couple of threads on the interweb with no outcome. The car is standard, he does have a Mr12v DSP installed and I'm trying to activate the CD changer option so it works but as I can't read or write to it, I'm kinda stuck.
Any of you geniuses on here have an answer so I can code the bloody thing?
Thanks.

Icom , dcan? which interface?

Just a DCAN but the ones I tell everyone to get, it reads all the other modules without an issue, latency is 1, latest driver, switch either way although with it being a 2008 car it doesn't need pins 7&8 shorting.

You need icom to perform this work

Ahh bollocks
Turns out he is about an hour away, so he is making the trip down as I have ICOM, thanks for the heads up.

Wondering if you or anyone else knows why it refuses to read just this one module with a DCAN cable?

It's because DCAN cables don't have a big enough buffer to read the ECU's coding file

Is it worth trying to default code it or will that also fail, and SG_RESET, is that just a reboot command?
Thanks again.
Just trying to save the guy a trip down the motorway to get on my ICOM if I can.

Sometimes you can code them and it will fail but the coding can take.
SG_RESET is the reboot command in NCS.
You could send the guy your ICOM and do it remotely

I'd rather he made the hours' drive tbh, if I had a cheap clone I would post it out
Thanks for the info, I'll give it one last go tonight.
