    How to code a used LCM with PASoft/BMW Scanner doityourself

    Please see attached a PowerPoint/PDF document I put together this evening for coding mileage and VIN to a used LCM, useful for replacements and/or upgrades (such as triple blink).

    This document has been created as a PowerPoint to make it easy to view on an iPad, as well as a PDF if viewing PowerPoint is an issue.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.

    I nominate BP to do all DIYs from here on out!

    Seriously, thanks so much! Now, where does one locate this PAsoft/BMW scanner software and tool?? Also, does this mean we can purchase ANY used LCM for triple blink? Or does it have to be a certain year/part #...?

    Jon,

    This is where I got my BMW scanner (the one BP is currently using for this DIY)

    http://www.xcar360.com/bmw-scanner-1-4-0-bmw-scanner-bmw-diagnostic-bmw-scan-tool.html

    For the price it was worth the risk and I'm glad I got it because it works! Can't beat it for $32.00

    LCMs that support the one touch triple blink have to come from an ///M3 years late '05 - '06 with s/w vers 4.0 minimum. Once you have this LCM you can use the BMW scanner (from the link I provided above) and code in the VIN from your BMW and mileage and you should be set. Just follow the DIY BP wrote up and you should have no problems

    I will add that I like having the one touch triple blink feature these LCMs come with. Its nice to use when making lane changes while driving on the highway...

    Excellent write up!

    My LCM says SW4.0 and I have BMW Scanner but I can't figure out how to set the option.

    Do you have NCS Expert?
    I'm not sure if this is an option in PASoft; I'd have to hook it up and check.

    Text me tomorrow after 15:00 if you can (# is in Members Only section) and I'll hook up and check.

    Did you ever get around to checking if that option is there for you in BMW Scanner? I'm just now getting around to messing with this again.
