Ista 4.03.21 Delete Fault Memory Issue

Ista 4.03.21 Delete Fault Memory Issue
It seems that with the new update, deleting the fault memory does a terminal change. Im having an issue and not sure if its a problem everyone is having...

On F series cars, everything works fine, it does an "automatic" terminal change.

However on E series, it instructs to do a manual terminal change. The issue comes in with when I do the terminal change on the E series, it doesnt detect that I completed it, forcing to me to click "cancel". If I want to see what faults remain after the delete, I have to run another vehicle test....

Any ideas?

"E" car you have to do terminal change (key off/on) manually.

Don't hit cancel, just push the start/stop to turn off ignition then push again to turn it back on and ista will continue

Had no problems with an e90, I didn't even need to remove the remote/key fob only the push button off then on.
I use icom not sure if it's different with k+dcan cable since it cant tell the ignition position. Try another e series.

I think the Problem is your interface.

You can test it with INPA.

With a good Interface you can see, whether ignition is on or off.

Are you using usb cable or ICOM? USB does not detect and inform ista about KL15\30 status, so it doesnt know that you have cycled the ignition.....

RE: Ista 4.03.21 Delete Fault Memory Issue
Im using USB so that explains it, its not detecting terminal change....

I have no need for an ICOM since I use Winkfp & Esys for flashing...

I guess I have to stick with the Cancel method or backdate to 4.01 and deal with Fasta again...I hate fasta so Ill probably stick with 4.03

I know we patched out fasta, is there by chance a way to patch out the terminal change in the delete fault memory function or revert the delete fault memory function back to 4.01 style?

Yes, tested on an E90 using USB, same problem.

I had the same problem with E70. It is not detecting the terminal change and I had to hit the cancel to get out of it.

I hope someone will find a solution for this.
