Bmw f20 - 6wa retrofit

XZBMW  Bmw f20 - 6wa retrofit
Hi all,

Yesterday I started the procedures to a 6wa retrofit on my f20. I saw several posts on different places about this kind of retrofit but no one specifically to f20.

In R270 I could found 3 short vin locations and I could also clear the Mileage.

Although, I'm not sure about the addresses that I have to fill with FF, they are different from a retrofit guide I saw.

In sometime at night I asked Shawn to send me a virgin dump of f20's 6wa and I could write it.

Testing it on a bench I saw the mileage as 00000 but I can see a red dot. My question is, is this the expected behavior and when I put in the car and flash it will disappear or I have to do something different?

Thanks in advance.

After clear vin and mileage. You must flash and code to make dot go away. This is done in the car smile

Please help me! worried

I added the KOMBI to the car and started t he procedures to flash but I'm only see BKOMBI there.

Seems the VCM still have that info and I cannot VO code or Flash.

What I can do now? If someone can connect here using teamviewer please let me know.

- cant see KOMBI using read ECU (bkombi is red)
- Reading SVT BKOMBI are there but can't inject cafd or code it.
[BKOMBI - 60] There was an error during TAL execution, please check the log files.
[BKOMBI - 60] - [Exception - BKOMBI_60_ETHERNET] openECUConnection for link BKOMBI_60_ETHERNET failed with error MCDError Severity: 2051, Error Code: 49184, Description: Object with name not found, Vendor Code: 3, Vendor Description: provided name BKOMBI_60_ETHERNET doesn't map to an item

- I've VO Coded the NBT HU with 6WA, I can see music information there and control stuff.

Editing VCM by hand I could remove BKOMBI and now KOMBI is detected.

Now the issue happens when I try to flash KOMBI.

TAL execution started.
VCM Update: VCM-Update is deactivated. VCM will not be updated. [C197]
Fatal error while executing tal!
[] There was an error, please check the log files.
Asynchrone programming failed! [C049]
FA must not be null when trying to execute a TAL containing coding transactions [1358]
[] - [Exception - UNKNOWN] FA must not be null when trying to execute a TAL containing coding transactions

No matter how I get FA (reading or loading a saved file).

Any ideas?

Finally I did the flash after calculate SOLL several times with different I-Steps. It took almost 1 hour and 30 minutes to flash.

At the end, when the esys updates the cafd it failed with the error ECU: KOMBI_60_ETHERNET severity: ERROR.

When I did the retrofit of NBT2 (first gen) I did not connected the OABR because the pins size was different. Do you think this error is related to it?
Something like Kombi communicates with NBT by most and NBT goes to FEM by ethernet.

After flashing, the Mileage changed to 99999 and the red dot didn't went away. I'll try to reset it again.

Have you seen it before?
