TPMS Disable with Coding: Possible?

sle39lvr · 11-03-2015, 12:58 PM

I just invested in INPA cable and looking in to coding.

I don't have TMPS insider the tires on my E90 anymore. I want to disable the ambler warning light on the dash. When I search around, it looks like it's impossible to do this via coding alone? I need to buy a special module to fool the system?

Thanks in advance.

yes its possible to disable tpms and what do you mean by ambler warning?

There are several threads on this. You need to both physically disable (unplug) the RDC module and make the code changes.

Search.

Try this
Remove $2VB from VO
Pull the fuse for TPMS
Unplug module in trunk.
Code Kombi: rdc_alive

FA Write dsc, Kombi, and nfrm

Let me know if this works.

Only caveat, if you have Nav, you can't pull the fuse since it shares the same circuit.

You need to either unplug the RDC module or take out its fuse, doing both is not necessary.

Pulling out the fuse for it, didn't help

It was fuse #27 on my E90 2008 328i

Did you do the coding? If you did, go back over the coding steps now that the fuse is pulled. Especially make sure $2VB isn't still in the VO.

I am sorry, I should have stated, it was WITHOUT coding.

Any Luck with removing the TPMS amber light on the dash?

I successfully removed the TPMS warning. Have you figured it out?

TPMS Removal E9x and E6x

** Disconnect RDC Module** in the truck, fender on the battery side. Plz leave the fuses alone.

1) NCS EXPERT, FILE, PROFILE, EXPERTMODE
2) F1 (vIN, ZCF/FA)
3) F3 (ZCS/FA F. ECU)
4) SELECT CHASSIS
5) CAS, (VIN SHOULD POPULATE), OK
6) F2, ENTER FA
7) SELECT CHASSIS, AGAIN
8) REMOVE 2VB, PRESS ADD, OK
9) F6, BACK
10) F4, PROCESS ECU
11) SELECT CAS, AGAIN
12) F2, CHANGE JOB, SELECT FA_WRITE
13) F3, EXECUTE JOB
14) F1, SG/SGEN, SELECT FRM (or LMA/E60)
15) F3, EXECUTE JOB

**TO WRITE TO ANOTHER MODULE,
-F1 (SG/SGEN), THEN F3, EXECUTE JOB.
_________________________________________
RECODE

1) USING FACTORY DEFAULT, CODE DSC, CAPPL/CIC. AND KOMBI
2) USING EXPERTMODEN, CHANGE RDC_ALIVE TO NICHT_ATKIV IN KOMBI

I just posted it. I promise this works, every time.

rothwem · 09-13-2016, 08:12 AM

I did this:

http://e84.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1145078

And it worked pretty well. It wasn't exactly the same stuff, but if you use your head, you'll be able to figure it out.

bNks334 · 09-13-2016, 11:44 AM

can't you just code TPMS off in the DSC module (MK60 for E82)?

There are settings in there for TPMS monitoring as well as brake pad wear monitoring...

You need a couple more things than that. The Kombi, CIC and DSC need to be coded, and you need to change the VO.

From the link I posted:

2) Code OUT $2VB and ADD IN $265 in the VO.

3) Change the following codes in CIC, KOMBI, and XDSC:
CIC: RPA_CIC
aktiv
CIC: RDC
nicht_aktiv
CIC: RDC_SAFETY
nicht_aktiv

KOMBI: RDC_ALIVE
nicht_aktiv
KOMBI: MMI_ENA_RPA_RDC
aktiv
KOMBI: RDC_VERBAUT
nicht_aktiv
KOMBI: DSC_MIT_RPA_CC
aktiv
KOMBI: RDC_DISP_SWITCH
nicht_aktiv

XDSC: AUSSTATTUNG_RPA
aktiv

And that was it. Then you can go into the status menu. If you go to the Flat Tire Monitoring System tab, it should see there is an error. Just go to the 2nd tab and reset it. Then you should see green in all corners.

From the link I posted:

Seems to me like the extra coding you are doing is only necessary because you are also physically removing the sensors and modules too...

Ill try what you posted and see where I get.

I"m stuck here
8) REMOVE 2VB, PRESS ADD, OK
no options to remove and no 2vb

Highlight $2VB and press delete on your keyboard, then OK. If you're '07 I think you have FTM instead of TPMS though.
