No. 6WA only. It changes the the color of the graphic lines on the bottom of Instrument Cluster, and these lines are unique to 6WA Kombi.

If you are trying to Force Day or Night Mode, see if 6WB has the following that you can code:

KOMBI => DIM_NACHT_AUS => Werte = FF (Night Mode)
KOMBI => DIM_NACHT_EIN => Werte = FF (Day Mode)

Any body an idea?

cafd_0000000f-005_025_121 Fehler:
File for "cafd_0000000f-005_025_121" not found! [C012]

Im using the E-sys 3.18 with the PSDZdata 47.5.
What are im doing wrong?

Thanks for you help guys.

You are not doing anything wrong per se'. Your PSdZData is too old for your car, which means you need new PSdZData, which also means you need new E-Sys, which in turn also means you need a new Token solution.

Any idea where I can find this new version? Is this working the same as the other one?

x3f25 · 03-04-2014, 01:31 PM

I already looked into the info of April1 and it seems to be working almost the same. Could somebody help me with these files?
Thanks from holland..

I have no idea then on how to make it work with 6WB.

Good Evening / Morning.
I was trying to do some coding tonight on my '14 F25 X35i to restore some of the coding lost when I got my car back from the dealership. I was having problems with the Radio unit restarting every 2 minutes exactly.. turned out to be a service bulletin and done under warranty. The radio NBT was replaced with another unit.. problem solved but lost some of my previous coding.

So now, I am getting the error while reading code data on a few of the CAFDs... namely..TCB, JBBF, IHKA, HU_NBT, EKPM2, EGH, DME.. all others read fine.
Currently using ESYS 3.32.4 with 50.4 PSdZData
Help is appreciated, Thanks.

shawnsheridan · 03-04-2014, 10:35 PM

50.4 is now too old for your car. You need to update your PSdZData.

Many thanks to April for putting the effort into the guide. Took a while to get a block of time to code, but the instructions made it real simple. Used the initial cheat sheet for the door unlock on engine stop, key FOB and CA codes, but really love the TPS code for the PSI and temp. Now to scour for more fun updates...

BeeMdblU · 03-08-2014, 10:22 PM

April1 has been very helpful on this forum, we need to support him by buying cables/token off of him.
Shawnsheridan has been extremely helpful and he answers every request and PM thrown his way, I don't believe shawnsheridan sells anything but I'm sure his team appreciates some form of appreciation through donations and whatnot

shawnsheridan · 03-08-2014, 11:25 PM

Thanks, and no I don't sell anything. I don't have a team either. It's just me.

CatFlap · 03-11-2014, 06:03 AM

I've got an F15 on order, is coding possible?

I have the latest version of E-Sys & PSdZData files working on my F25 at the moment.

shawnsheridan · 03-11-2014, 06:25 AM

Yes. You will still use F25 as your Target Connection.

CatFlap · 03-11-2014, 09:54 AM

Thanks!

easports82 · 03-22-2014, 06:23 PM

Wondering if anyone's seen a code which would automatically disengage the Auto P feature when shifting to reverse? Always back-in to my garage and wouldn't mind not having to remember to turn it off every time.

nosaj070 · 03-23-2014, 09:39 PM

Shawn - could you please send me all the software / instruction info? Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi. I'm new to all this coding lark and hoping to start coding some of the usual stuff next week.

I have my cable and the software from Shawn (thanks!).

Where do I get a token?

One of the more unusual things I'm hoping to code is the "removal" of the front active headrests. I would like to put in DVD headrests as I had them in my old X5 and definitely keep the kids quiet on long trips to France! Does anyone know if you can code the car so it thinks the car never had active headrests?

Thanks
