Hello All,

I've spent the last 3 days searching for info and trying to connect ISTA+ (4.10.20) and/or ISTA/P (3.64.600) on my windows 10 laptop to my e91 (2008 328xi) with no luck. I've connected the same system to my 2014 BMW motorcycle just fine (K-line), but not the car. Basically there is no communication through ISTA+/ISTA/P between the laptop and the car. The info I found on the OBD car plug does not match what my car has, please see the pics. I only have connectors on pins 4, 5, 6, 9, 14 and 16, the last one does have battery voltage without ignition on. The car battery is charged up and I'm using a 10-12 amp charger; I've also tried it with the engine running.

My K+dcan cable is the switchable type that's also compatible with INPA, and I've tried all the switch locations, but being it's for pins 7&8 on the obd side, I can't see it making a difference since I don't have any connectors there on the car. So is this car basically a K-line? I receive the same message, the vehicle could not be identified, with the cable attached to the obd port, or removed from the port.

Before looking closer at the OBD plug, I had tired just about all the usual culprits e.g. comport settings, ran DCANexe withing the first minute of connecting to car, but timed out multiple times, turned off firewall and virus protection etc.

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you.

Pins 7 and 8 makes no differance for you because u are on DCAN and have no CIC that use pin 8 ethernet.

Some K+DCAN i bought where also not working with vehicles after 03/2007

Do you have green or white board?
Lattency to 01 and COM port correspond to OBD.ini file in ediabas?

I can have a look with teamviewer if you want?

Dit you run regfix for 64bit for OBD ?
Dit you run OBD setup.exe to check if you have no warnings?
