Well it turns out that my problem, embarrassingly, was power. I was using an older laptop and I guess it didn't have enough juice by battery alone. Once I plugged the laptop in, the flash finished successfully (I also adjusted the transmission rates on the cable, but I don't think that actually did anything).
So at this point the car is back where it was before. The adaptive headlight error is still coming up on the dash. I tried to use NCS Expert to fix that, but it told me "invalid VIN" (or something to that effect- i didn't take a screenshot- which is what it was doing before that led me down the WINKFP route).. any idea on what to do at this point? |

Code:
1.open NCS expert 2.File-Load profile 3.select EXPERMODE 4.press F1 5.press F3 6.select E89<for E90> 7.press BACK 8.press F3<CHOOSE ECU> 9.select NFRM 10.select FA_WRITE from CHANGE JOB 11.press F3<EXECUTE JOB> Is there a way I can verify that the VIN was written to the adaptive headlight module (it's used so maybe there's some problem on that end)... Thanks! |

F1 F3 e89 Choose CAS F6 back F4 process ecu Choose LSMC if you replaced left side adaptive module or RSMC if you replaced the right side adaptive module F3 SG Codieren If the adaptive module you installed is functioning then this will code it to the car. If it fails then the adaptive module you installed is most likely not working. |

I will give this a shot and hopefully it'll do it (might not have a chance for a few days though) Should the ignition be on (with car not running) or off when I do this? I read somewhere that when you do "CAS" the ignition should be off... Thanks so much, really appreciate it! I thought I had all the steps down from what I found on other forum posts, but clearly not... |

And the saga continues....
I gave it a shot with the steps above and got the error in the screenshot here. Does this seem like a cable problem or a software problem at this point (or both)? The first time I ran ncs expert (after the successful flash via winkfp), I got an error about the VIN. This time, all I got was this error that suggests a connectivity problem. INPA works fine though and I rebooted the computer, fiddled with the USB settings (still com1 and latency 1 though), but every time I got this same error... While I'm happy that the car is at least back to the point it was when I started this, I'd like to get rid of the adaptive headlight error one way or another (either by programming this module correctly, assuming it's good, or just coding the feature out of the car entirely which doesn't sound like it's terribly hard to do but I'm leery now ). Any ideas are greatly appreciated!! Thanks |
