This is madness!! My copies of ISTA+ and ISTAP are working OK but I cant for the life of me program from within ISTA+ I get "run vehicle test first". I am using an ICOM. Managed to program car with ISTAP so there must be some minor configuration I need to make to get programming to work. Windows 10.

I have totally ignored that @not enough resources" warning. It makes little sense with 200GB free space core I7.

Anybody with an idea what to look for? And to add insult to injury, I have made it work before but that was after so much tampering I cant remember what I altered and where. I am suspecting I changed something in the configuration.exe file. My ista is in a separate hard disc.

Check you Path in registry to PSdZ data.
Location:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\BMWGroup\ISPI\Rheingold
Setting:
BMW.Rheingold.Programming.PsdzDataPath
Werth:
..\..\..\PSdZ\data_swi

And Check PSdZ is in ??\Rheingold\PSdZ\data_swi\PSdZ

Checked, positive. Added a few lines to configuration.exe as advised. Will test and revert.

In this version of ISTA Programming and Expert mode need to be set in registry, not by CONFIG file in ISTA.
Location:
Same as PSdZ datapath.
Settings:
BMW.Rheingold.Programming.Enabled set to true
BMW.Rheingold.Programming.ExpertMode set to true

Did you copy SDP to your ISTA+ directory?

Yes, these three are in the registry, checked and triple checked!

Yes, data swi copied

What could be wrong? Ignore the CoapiBase lines, I just need F series programming connection. Windows 10

Tried it with

<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.PsdzDataPath" value="..\..\..\PSdZ\data_swi"/>

Nothing doing, still that annoying perform vehicle test

ISTAD works, ISTAP works, programming in ISTAD, no luck. Very frustrating

If you look in ISTA in settings and version is in the list servicedata present.

And Registry?

[willisodhiambo]

Well, my version reads 4.07.12!! Let me download this and retry.

Incidentally my icom flashed red for WLAN and COMM, not sure if that is a sign of trouble or not. Will reinstall and report back!

[ghostp]

Yes I did but anyway I can’t readout my car. Weird

You must edit ediabas.ini in ..\Rheingold\ediabas\bin\. Or delete this Folder, then ISTA+ use your already installed Ediabas.

I did it exactly how you said but ISTA do not connect (( I did first edit the ediabas.ini from "Interface = Remote" to "STD:OBD" and it didn't work. Than I deleted the entire ediabas folder in \Rheingold\ and it still do not connect.

I'm frustrated!

Keep trying, lets go over it,
1. You installed all the netframeworks 3.5, 4.5.2, 4.6.2 and 4.7
2. You installed vcredistx64 and x86, there is a bunch of them.
3.You installed vs90
4. You updated your Java
5. You installed istaD, copied SDP into the right folder and SQDB into the right folder. These need to be OTHER and your language package
6. Did a reg fix and your IST opens
For KDCAN, this is the order
7. Install Ediabas,
8. Go to Ediabas/Bin and look for Obd.ini file. Change comport to com1
9. Open ediabas.ini in same bin folder, check that interface reads STD:OBD
10. Plug you KCAN cable, go to ftdichip.com and download D2XX driver for your system.
11. Go to device drivers, look USBSerial port, update driver with 10 above, right click it, change port to com 1, latency to 1
12. Open ista, change vciconfig to ediabas
13 install networktool and configure USB as per instructions
14. Connect cable to car, switch ignition on. Close ISTA, reopen it and connect,

Do not bother trying KDCAN on Fseries, it acts up sometimes for no apparent reason. Look through the above and confirm you went through all the steps particularly configuring Ediabas, networktool, obd.ini and ediabas.ini

Confirm you have the PDF instruction file and the whole tools folder. You cant go wrong with it.
