i have
a 06/08 build e92
ediabas 7.2
ncsexpert 3.1
E89 V46.2 daten files (ECU,SGDAT, DATEN)
clear K+Dcan cable wit pin 8 removed completely
cable latency is set to 1 and also set to com 1
Ediabas.ini file's remote host was changed to 192.168.68.1 and port to 6801
all things are set to OBD
key on position but engine off
i do have a JB4 tune but i even turned it off

i just finished coding my friends 07 e90 with no problems, and when i try to code my 08 e92, i have error while trying to get the vin/chassis/ecu on NCSexpert...
Its telling me vin is faulty, coapi-2020, ifh-0009

this is my error log

ERROR! Modul: LFCDHDIA.CPP (A_E65CAS.IPS/IPO), Proc: CDHapiResultText, LineNr: 01, ErrorNr: 2020
COAPI-2020: no answer from ECU
IFH-0009: ECU not connected or doesn't answer

>> ERROR! Modul: COAPI2.CPP, Proc: coapiRunCabd, LineNr: 06, ErrorNr: 2020
FGNR_LESEN

>> ERROR! Modul: COAPI.CPP, Proc: coapiReadFgNr, LineNr: 04, ErrorNr: 2020
FGNR_LESEN: A_E65CAS

can someone help me figure out what can be wrong? TIA
i already searched on everyforum i can and on google but still no luck...

Thereis no v46.2 there is v46.1 daten you sure you do everything proper cause it should work like a charm with this set. Key is in fob? Ignition on ? There are several combinations for differnet cars, one car is reading superb without key or igniotion second need both

[guwakjai010]

it says v46.2 on the folder, i don't know how else to verify it... i compared the amount of files in the folders with v42 and v38 daten files and it seems to have either the same amount of files or more than the older daten files... i have the key fb in wit ignition on... like i said, the funny part is i just coded my friends car an hour prior to trying it on mine...

[guwakjai010]

i think i might kno why... i'm looking at my OBD connector from the car and i don't see any metal connectors inside where pin 7 would go... im going to have to pulled that part out and inspect it...

Maybe those new files are corrupt. If u were able to do the. 07 then no other reason then corrupt files

[Alpineweiss e90]

The interface changed in march '07. So I believe pin 7 and 8 need to connected. There should be an adapter for it.

[cn555ic]

No for cars after. 3/07. Pins 7 and 8 are disconnected

Ok OP said his friends car which was an '07, accepted the coding. I think his cable has pins 7 and 8 connected so that's why it's not working for his 06/08 build.

Clear all contents from .MAN file after each vehicle.

i looked at the back of the obd2 connector in my car and where pin 7 should connect to, theres no pin in the connect from the car....

[guwakjai010]

anyone have he wiring diagram for dlc connector?

[cn555ic]

What month was your friend 2007 built should be the question? Is it before march of 2007?? The second question is why did you set the ediabas port to 6802 when it suppose to be set to 6801??

[guwakjai010]

i gotta find his month.... but looking back at it, it is on port 6801 sorry bout that.... its set for OBD.... i looked at my dlc connector, PIN 7 is not there on the car... and also compared to my friend's car i have 6 pins in the connector while he has 7... and there were couple pins that werent in the same place...

[guwakjai010]

is there something i have to do to switch from k line to dcan?

[RectalItching]

i received VIN is faulty code also. when my usb cable was not plugged in well, must be communications issue. obd setup should be run, inpa test should be good, driver should be updated. latency set to u, com port should be 1. in short, just things to keep in mind

[guwakjai010]

actually so i found out that i needed a REAL Dcan Cable cuz it was different.... bought a newer and more expensive cable and it worked... thansk for all the help

[alexwhittemore]

What was the difference in cables and why did you originally pull out pin 8? I'm having this same error right now, maybe related.

the cable difference was really whether it can really read CAN type ECU... apparently after march 2008 build date...they switched from Kline to DCAN and some of the cables that says its Dcan compatible... really wasn't......

I originally took out pin 8 for the OLD cable was that i wasa afriad there were traces between 7and8 that i couldn't see... just to eliminate if it was soldered or internally traced together.....

I bought a newer cable that supports past the march 2008 build date and can do up to 2011 i believe... and that cable worked on my 08 and 07... haven't used it on anything else tho...

Hope this helps...

also what i did was look at my friend's 07 odd2 port's pinout and compared it with mine and thats how i found out it was a diferent Protocol where 03/08 was a CANBUS system

hi guys i got a similar issue as you did

i have a bmw E60 530d which is 2005 model i can connect and code to this car fine
i recenty brought a e93 convertible 2007 model its first registered in 6/07

i opened my cable and have disconnected pin 7-8 still in inpa it says no response from ecu from i try to read function jobs

my inpa works on my other cars what could be wrong?

do i have to change any ediabas settings?

[dj_b4l]

the cable has been tested on other cars such as other E60 and E46 cars and works fine
