For those getting the 'VIN not found' or whatever it says error: I ordered the exact same cable from the exact same seller. I was getting frustrated and about to give up. I watched this video over and over, deleted and redownloaded the software a couple of times (is 'redownloaded' a word?) and then I remembered that Evan repeatedly said: "make sure that pins 7 and 8 are connected". Same cable, same seller, same switch setting, right? Nope. I took the clear connector apart to verify that the pins were connected, and noticed that the wires were connected on the right. I moved the switch to the right, and bingo. Immediately connected. Hope this helps someone. Try all 4 switch settings if you need to.

[@z06king]

moved what switch? I have the blue connector apart, and see no switch. Pins 7,8 are soldered together.

[@EvanGoyuk]

Some cables have a switch for different BMWs and some cables are soldered to just work on like the e46, e39, e38

[@z06king]

Ok thanks Evan. I’ll keep trying

[@homeluangaphay2801]

Can you help me I think I screwed up my ecu

[@EvanGoyuk]

What were you trying to do?

[@Robertsonfamily219]

Thanks man. I'm a complete nube at this and before your video, I found it incredibly difficult to find the programs, install them correctly and work out how to use them. You not only provided ACTIVE links to the programs and files but you walk through everything in detail and in layman's terms. You have no idea how appreciative I am. Thanks heaps!!! Now I have to search the net to find out how to fold in my mirrors on remote lock on my E70 and change the cruise control display from mph to km/h and hopefully display a digital speedo. Hopefully there are people out there who explain in simple terms as well as you have.

[@BryanChance]

This is a great tutorial. There are a bunch of other videos but this one you did is straight forward and easy to follow. Thanks Evan. Oh the reason the folder name is NCSEXPER without the T is because when this program was written back in the days, the filename was limited to 8 characters.(That's what i read in my computer class. LOL )

[@TheChedley]

WARNING for first time NCSEXPERT users: It is very important that you save the current original configuration of your BMW car (the FSW_PSW file) BEFORE attempting any coding. So that if you mess up , you can revert and restore your car's original configuration, and not disable it.!! So at minute 20:35 of this video : Stop everything, open another window and make a backup copy of the FSW_PSW trace file, (call it FSW_PSW.backup), then proceed.

[@zezom3341]

The FSW file in the desktop?

[@TheChedley]

@@zezom3341 ---> The FSW_PSW trace file is located in the work directory of NCSEXPERT (typically C:\NCSEXPER\WORK\FSW_PSW.TRC)

[@zezom3341]

@@TheChedley wow thanks alot for replying 5 months later haha If you wouldn't mind could you explain to me where to put the backup as i'm not very good with computers

[@TheChedley]

@@zezom3341 You save the backup copy somewhere you can retrieve it if needed. Maybe on a thumb drive, or another computer, or the desktop, or a memory stick.....

[@adan2lo]

I wish I read this ccomment before I started... Seriously no one one should be uploading tutorials of using NCS Expert without disclaiming TO BACK EVERYTHING UP - you're fucked if you don't. thumbs down for this video. Imagine if I took you sky diving without teaching you how to deploy the backup chute. Still appreciate your effort and time for the video but man. We have to have each others back

[@camaroiowaguy23]

after so many videos. this is the one that worked for me 100% first time. i bought a toughbook online from a buddy with ncs all that installed. had no ncsdummy. i followed your video and got it and got it working. thank you a whole lot! :)

[@georgeharrison5793]

Thank You! This is exactly what was needed a step by step guide with possible reasons it wouldn't work. I tried doing all of this a few years ago and gave up. I spent 2 weeks tinkering every day. After watching your video I immediately went out and read a module, made changes with dummy, and will code the module tomorrow! You just saved me hundred of dollars to deactivate the AHL system on my 650. Again thank you!

[@mikesouth125]

That was the most step by step how to that I have ever used. It worked flawlessly and was easy to follow. I coded my comfort close and everything works but the rear vent windows. It is late and I have been staring at this laptop for hours so I will play with it more after work tomorrow, but I had to say thank you!

Hi, I have been watching your videos for a while now, finds the videos very useful regards specifically to e46. I have a 4 door 320d 2005 production. It is a base model and at times it is frustrating when you miss basic things like a drink holder or even an aircon which are now standard equipment saying that, still love the car have it since 09 and have 95K miles on the clock, looking at your videos there are endless possibilities to make it look cool and perform better though it is a time consuming but I enjoy it.

Thank you for watching and it is odd that BMW didn’t add these basic features

[@llllPROTOCOLllll]

Running this on Win10 without issue. Recently coded and activated my E60 530i Bluetooth. Make sure you update Daten files if you run into Coapi errors during coding. Great video.

[@EvanGoyuk]

Make sure pins 7 and 8 are bridged on the inpa cable

[@EvanGoyuk]

Yes

[@llllPROTOCOLllll]

Make sure you're using the latest daten files for your model. They must be loaded into the software. If you don't have the daten files, you can get the package you need from (Bimmergeeks) the latest version on the site is 60.1. I used it without issue. Once you download the daten files you'll need to load them, the easiest way is with the BMW CODING TOOL. Make sure you update Daten and WinKFP. Search for some videos on youtube, I believe there are a few good ones that walk through how to update the files with this tool. Once you've downloaded the file for your model from BimmerGeeks, and updated try your coding attempt again. You shouldn't get the Coapi error. The reason the error happens is because the Coapi process file is pulled from WinKFP by NCS expert, if NCS expert can't find the file (in WinKFP), it throws the Coapi error. Hope this helps... Good Luck!

Wow, 😊 Inspirational & Instructive.. You thoroughly took plenty of time including all of the excitement and intricacies too, plus the perfect amount of low monotone... A unique, patient lack of intensity that really sterilized my focus too. Good job..

By the way, Great DIY video

[@Duffman__]

Great video! Thanks for recording it and sharing, it's by far and away the most step by step intro to coding I've come across. Since you are using macbook pro, would you advise a virtual machine or bootcamp for those of us that will also be using a macbook pro? or is this software indifferent in that regard? I've got the intel processor chip (i5) for reference.

[@EvanGoyuk]

To be honest I use a VM and have had no problems. But I assume boot camp would have similar results

Very informative video. Thanks. I could code an E46 323CI after following this just fine. However the E46 M3 remains unchanged. No errors though. Coding gets finished just fine. I already did an SMGII tune using MSSTuner so there must not be an issue with the K+DCAN cable. I need to try it again tomorrow fresh.

[@andreamitchell4758]

great video , thanks again i got the cable i bought on ebay to work fine , i added the switch to bridge pins 7 and 8 i have a 2001 325ci (US) i got the blinker lights to flash when i lock /unlock and i got the windows to roll up with the key fob (sorta) but i can not get one touch close to work for the rear windows for some reason also my windows roll up with the key fob and the sun roof closes but the rear windows do not close but if i put the key in the door and lock it and hold it they will close, i coded it twice for one touch close rear windows but it doesn't work , so i thought maybe that i needed to code rear window jamming protection for it to work for one touch close, it was not enabled so i thought it might be a safety thing again , but when i coded that to on ten my read windows wouldn't close at all, i d=coded it back to off and they close again but no one touch close i did notice that in NCS dummy when selecting the GM5 that there were 2 that worked gm5.c05 and gm5.co6 so i tired it with both and still nothing oh and even though my car is 2001 i had to select the option for non facelift AKMB ans ALSZ didn't work so i went with EWS but i wonder if i try KMB if it will make any difference? and the only option for the visual alarm with no alarm module installed that worked was blinking the blinkers when i lock/ unlock , i tried to code it to blink low beams but it didn't work either , the only one that specifically said with no alarm module was the blink the blinkers one i wonder if there is a way to do it manually and also to get the horn to honk when locking and unlocking or maybe even something even more advanced like make it behave like other cars where the horn honks intermittently and the light lights flash as an alarm if the door is opened

Just started looking at your KZbin articles. MASSIVE information! I am very interested in the coding tutorial. I have many questions but I will ask two for now. First, do you have a tutorial on coding using a MacBook Pro? Second, do you offer, for a fee of course, one on one tutorials for people who are REALLY not tech savvy? I have an 01 325CI convertible that I would love to be able drop/raise the top, off my key fob! I look forward to your input and am going continue watching your KZbin's.

thanks for the help, and since u're active here, I'm gonna ask u for help with my E70, i'm trying to code the new angle sensor (kindly notice that i have changed and upgraded the iDrive system on my car 6 years ago, so the main receiver unit isn't the one that came with the car. but what i wanna know is, using this software, can i code each and every module independently ? or separately? see i have changed somethings in the car and now the workshop here that uses BMW software says we can't code your car, because it's asking for the old parts, but they told me you can do this coding "offline" so is this software what means offline?

What version of Windows are you using? 32 bit or 64? I have managed to read and code some ECU´s, but I can´t read GM5 or the RLS. I was wondering if it´s because I´m running the NCS on a 64bit Windows or maybe the Daten files are not up to date. My car is a 2003 E46 320D. Thanks for the video, helped me a lot, keep up the good work!!!

Nice job making the video. I was wondering if you can assist me with a question I have. In NCS Dummy , how do I add an option to one of the choices in the trace file. For example in CAS module, in battery coding, how do I add an option for a 92ah agm battery. I hit on one of the choices which was 80ah agm and right clicked, then selected add an option, but then I don’t know how to populate the boxes below for this choice to become part of the trace file.
