What a video. Locksmiths don’t like sharing much, very informative. Showed the job & more importantly explained how it’s working 👍🏻

[@ArnaudSodegbe]

Salut mois je nouveaux mai j'ai la valise autel il 608 je fais les diagnostics avec ça mais pour les programmation je n'a rive pas faire j'ai besoin de aide pour formation merci beaucoup pour votre compréhension

[@cavemantalk]

Thank you so much

Someone from a key shop add my new key with Autel IM508 in like 5 min to my e60 2008 , the other 2 shops in the town couldn't do that,they said something about updating the CAS but were using other tools so i have to say that the AUTEL is a very good tool 💪🫶......i had one original bmw key the other one was lost

[@dashtyATG]

That helped me like crazy we love you i pray for you i promise.

[@przemekfryc5495]

Really great video mate and the job shown 😃💪

[@janmay-eh3pf]

How can I communicate with you? I attempted to add a semi smart key to a 2013 mini cooper and it failed during the isapti update and now I can't comminicate and need to run the bench cas3++ repair. Will running the repair per your video instructions work to get the car to work with the original key again? The car was driven in yesterday.

[@user-Alhassany]

Very informative.. thanks

[@mohammadalamin208]

Very good video sir. What if we want to add the key? In bench mode?

[@JoeDLocksmith]

Yes

[@giu6124]

Thanks Joe .

[@johnkirk-l3p]

Hi Joe I want to send you my sincere thanks for this video and professional way you put it across. I had this exact failure last night and mild panic set in until I watched your video. I followed it step by step. You got me out of a real tight spot. I just couldn’t of done it without your brilliant way of explaining the process. I’m sending my whole hearted thanks.

[@eduardosargento6621]

Hi, I have the same problem with Cas3,With X prog I have already read the Flash file size 2mb and the EEPROM 4kb, please send me your email, or another contact. Thanks

Wow you the man Joe! I'm going to join your Patreon but see you have another site as well. Is there a difference or which do you recommend more active on? Thank you!

[@JoeDLocksmith]

Really no difference, i post the same content to both pages and both give access to the VIP discord chat

[@eduardosargento6621]

​@@JoeDLocksmithHi, I have a problem with a CAS3 Mini R57 , eeprom data is corrupted after bad reflash/downgrading and there is no communication with it and no ignition on car. I've already read the eeprom and the flash with X-prog, please can you help me? Off course I will pay you

[@ВасяПупкин-ц7в]

Красиво

[@BajaKeys]

Hi Joe, excellent videos, I’m working on 2010 mini Cooper, customer bought at auction, the car cranks but no start, I checked the eeprom file but is good, do you think it y could be a problem with the flash? Tia

[@DiagProOCC]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jinxtuber5113]

Is all the work including read write and repair directly done on the CAS itself ? Or does it need any work at the car

[@marcoagonzalez9067]

Thank you

[@jasonharris5483]

Great video! The best! Thank you. Question, what if you do the writing flash file edit and it failed to write to flash file then what do you do?

[@ARTEFACTOVIRAL]

how do you connect the cas module to read the vin number ? with the saME CONNECTION ON THE 608 PICTURE OR FROM OBD2 WITH OTHER CONNECTION? BECAUSE I JUST CAN READ THE EEPROM OR FLASH BUT NOT THE VIN.. THANKS A LOT FOR THE VIDEO

[@thelocksmithco.8831]

Were you able to? I'm in the same boat.

[@Дима-ъ4е2й]

Better to add a key on bench before it happens,then do the same job plus repair cas

[@Mudshovel009]

Thank you so much for posting this how to!!!

[@AmaanShaikh-qp7rf]

Do IM 508 have the same option as IM608 ?

[@marcogranados944]

You copied same files to the eeprom???

[@lukas181118]

Nice man , just gained new sub ;d

[@iskooobydoo]

hey Joe, would this method work on CAS3 (non istap) modules?

[@lakelandcarkeys]

yes the bench method will work. non istap, hok jumper cable to a running vehicle and program via obd, you should be good. in and out in 5 mins.

[@arminhakimi637]

Good job 👍

[@lakelandcarkeys]

I just finished bricking a 2013 mini Cas3++ISTAP. Thank you for this video. ill go back and attempt the repair.

[@kimnilsson7501]

Yeah, this guy's rocks. Hope it helps you. Impressive video. Thanks! Hope I never get into a situation like this. Unforetately we can not call and pay him to get past, I would defenetiiy do that - you can win some, you can lose some - but when the shit hits the fan..... I wish I could call this "Gosthbuster". Impressive deep knowledge, thanks for sharing.

[@danielscustoms13]

That's procedure it is for in case that you don't have any communication with the CAS3 plus module ?? or what's the goal?

[@JoeDLocksmith]

YES

[@danielscustoms13]

@@JoeDLocksmith Thanks, I'm following your videos very closely!!

[@zwifting]

Nice vid👌 Cas on the mini bit more difficult to get at though? Most BMW it’s just by your knee - but isn’t the Cas under the dash in these Mini’s? Much hassle to remove it?

[@segounlocks5029]

Great video this happened to a freind because he didn't listen when I told him to have a stable voltage with a battrey flash stabilizer. He spent alot of money to get that mini fixed. Thanks for this video very wise man!

[@mrgringo6859]

Hey Joe great information, are you able to downgrade a cas3++ istap module to write the isn ? My customer has a 2010 mini with a used dme and I'm trying to write the isn onto the cas3++ instap. Can this be done with im608 ?

[@diy4940]

Thank❤
