BMW individual module programming using Autel MaxiSys MS908P. 

Hi I will do next time... Thank you for watching!

pedro l rivera negron it’s in the set up manual not that hard to do tho

👍👍👍 Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Your not going to have to scratch a whole lot since they leave alot of coverage out!!!

😊 Thanks, appreciate your comment and subscription! 👍👍👍👍

Hi Thank you for watching!

Lol Thank you for watching!

Depends what you want to do... I never used the 906... Thank for follow the channel, really appreciated!

Creative Mischief 906 had minimum programming you need the 908P for any programming that matters

Hi I give you an example... My 7 series, had for a long time a fault with one of the airbag modules... would come up with something like internal failure... Clear the the codes, would last for days, sometimes weeks and even months.... Has been doing it for 2 years... I was too lazy to reprogram it... But finally done it around Christmas last year... no issues ever since... This is just an example... the manufacturer sometimes releases updates to rectify or improve deliverability etc... Thank you for watching!

LM Auto Repairs cool thx Luis...👍

Hi You need a live connection... as the software is downloaded fr9m their servers... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

@@LMAutoRepairs hi. is it free? or it will charge with upcoming updates?

@@modestasserpenskas2353 Hi Is part of the anual subscription... Thank you for watching!

I di have one, but is not really the recommended one... Search for a smart battery maintainer... Thank you for watching!

Hi It can do bidirectional control of loads of components... I personally, never tried the vanos... but I can't see it no be able to... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Yes... 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs so it does everything that an original eth cable type machine does, having this machine I don't need the bmw machine or the programs?

Pretty much... Just that ISTA has guided diagnostics with diagrams etc... the Autel doesn't...

@@LMAutoRepairs thank you my friend I appreciate your availability and thank you for helping me because I'm buying a machine like this expensive and complicated😅

👍👍👍

Hi The updates are included on the annual subscription... Thank you for watching!

j georges you need a subscription and update right from Autel you can get third party software no such thing.

usb cable goes between autel tablet and autel programming module to ensure there is no data transmission problem when programming

No... the J2534 is compatible with other OEM softwares... The updates ect are included with the anual subscription... Thank you for watching!

@@LMAutoRepairs great keep up the good job, and aks me if u ever need help. i always seems to get cars that nobody can find whats wrong!

I guess it will... if needs programming... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

It can... but not all those ... The compatibility list on Autel website.... Thank you for watching!

yes it can it works with all or nearly all brands....and only bmw and Mercedes need programming for the rest only coding is needed....only bmw and Mercedes required this more expensive tablet....for all other brands u can do the coding with the cheaper 1k tablet.

👍👍👍

Thanks! 👍👍👍

It does... but don't think it does on the newer models, that do it on the idrive... At least I have never tried it... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

u can as long as u also buy the keyfob and cas module that belongs to the ecu.....the only issue wud be that if u live in a state with extremely strict smog rules it might not pass....6/16/2020 I was instructed by a star smog tech to get in contact with state referi to fix my issue wer my car has ecu ftm other car../////6/11/202 usually when I coonect the scanner to my car that has ecu frm another car it will ask me to choose between my vin and the vin of the car that the ecu came frm....tried smoging prior and the tech said som bulls..t story that his computer cudent connect to my car.....im asuming if u buy a brand ecu ter wudent b that issue....I cant affor new ecu so if noone wants to pass my car, ima just paint the sticker with glitter nail polish to corresponding year color, n use a gps jammer so my car does popup as a red dot on cops map screen...but ten they might b wondering why my car not showing up in teir screen since its modern car or tey might not even notice epecially in city with alot of vehicles...probly I wud only get caugh if I get pulled over and cant provide up to date regristion papers.

Never tried it... sorry if I can't help you this time... Thank you for watching!

Thanks!

Hi If was working and it stopped, is probably nothing to do with coding or programming... Most likely there is a fault somewhere inhibiting the cruise control.. Scan the car and look at some live data to find out what's happening... Hope that helps. Thank you for watching!

Never used that tool... Not sure if the solenoids need to be coded... Or are you talking about the whole mechatronics? Thank you for watching and for your comment!

It is advised to update everything... But most of the times you get away with update only individual modules... Thank you for watching!

I know it can, not sure if in all models though. Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Never tried it... so can't really comment... sorry... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Maxisys can program it no problem... VIN number etc... However, it fails to reset the immobiliser on it... for that you have the IM608 for example... 👍👍👍

👍👍👍

The jbox is the interface that enables the communication between the car and the tool... Being a J2534, is also compatible with flashing capabilities and the option to be used with some OEM softwares... 👍👍👍

Hi I got my one from eBay... can't really remember now the seller... Autel UK is indeed much more expensive... Sorry if I can't be more helpful...

Yes you can... But... the gearbox might be coded to the immobiliser... Maxisys does not do it... IM608 does it... The reason that lead me to buy it, was actually to do it on a F10... Thank you for watching!

I have only used it for a limited amount of time... but I believe it does... Thank you for watching! 👍👍👍

Should come up on the first main screen... Thank you for watching!

Possibly... Never done it... 👍👍👍

Where about are you based? Wanna try? Obviously pay you! 😊

No... the tool has WiFi to connect to your Internet... Thank you for watching!

Possibly... I never checked it... Otherwise VIDA will... Thank you for watching!

Never done it with ista... But I believe you can... 👍👍👍

Never used it... check on Autel website... there is plenty of info there... Thank you for watching!

I programmed an used Ecu from ebay to my car with maxisys 908p, u have to buy the Ecu, cas module, control fob and key insert with wiring.

No... None of the Autels (MS908P or IM608) can do it through OBD... The IM608 if I recall correctly, can do some ecus... to program the engine ecu, you need to take the ISN from the CAS and write it on the ECU... or vice versa... 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs That's what I thought. Thanks for your respond. Wishing you all the best!!!

👍👍👍

Pretty sure the MS908S Pro with the J2534, can program a new or used ECM on BMW and Mercedes. But only those auto makers. The rest, no.

When you flash/update the module, using the Maxisys, if you "tell" her the modules have been replaced, it will update the vin during programming... I have a video on my old e65, changing the Airbag gateway, and i show just that... Hope it makes sense... Thank you for watching!

@@LMAutoRepairs thanks..ill look at the vid asap

Don't think you can... Thank you for watching!

Yes... should be able to do it.... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

No worries. Keep up the good work. I was more wondering if I can use Autel to tell the EKPM3 that it’s now in a similar model but different car so it has correct flow values etc. If so can you point me in the right direction menu-wise that would be greatly appreciated? Thank you again.

The Autel is quite intuitive on that sort of stuff... Watch this video... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pAKztvmr07g.html The principle is the same... Once you flash the module with the software for the car, to change VIN number etc... and you code it... the module becomes part of the car... As if was fitted from factory...😊

Flashing yes, only BMW and Mercedes... Thank you for watching! 👍👍👍

The Autel has that cable... 👍👍👍 Thank you for watching!

Yes... Thank you for watching!

Pretty much yes... Thank you for watching!

Slawek h everything in our Bmw are computer ran and vin machine ECU etc. anytime you change out hardware even a battery you need to reprogram

Coding is more like change options... programming, is like updating the actually software/firmware inside the modules... Hope it makes sense... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

@@LMAutoRepairs HI FRIEND I HAVE THE SAME SCAN TOOL BUT MY SCREEN WHENT OUT SO IS THERE ANY PLACE WHERE I CAN GET MY SCAN TOOL TO GET IT REPAIR. MAXISYS MS908P

@@seankim1743 Not really... sorry... 😔

@@seankim1743 unfortunately, the only place to fix one of these is at Autel in California. www.autel.com

Hi Is that the electric version, correct? 👍👍👍

Not with this tool... Thank you for watching. 👍👍👍

Yes... 👍👍

You can do it with a D-can cable and BMW tools software... this however, is way more tricky to do... Artipad l can also do it, but is the same price as the Autel... might be other tools out there, just do dome research... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Yes it is... But if that is the only thing you need, will be cheaper to get NCS... Thank you for watching!

LM Auto Repairs Thank You. I have this system :-) But dont know how to do it. Do you know? Thanks LM

@@marcusb9365 Programming... check under retrofit... If is not there, check cheat coding... If not there, add +NAUX to the VO/SA/FA and code the car or the affected modules... Tank you for watching!

😊 👍👍👍

Yes... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

Most likely yes... Thank you for watching!

Hi As far as I can tell, can't... crash deletion is most of the times done with the module open... read data etc... Thank you for watching and for your comment! 👍👍👍

Here in the UK you can't... Will just fail to download the software... Check out with Autel if you leave elsewhere... As someone was saying that in the USA you can still programming...🤷‍♂️ Thank you for watching and for your comment.

yes, autel MS906 can do everything bro

Hi Yes... should be relatively easy to change the VO and update the car... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

@@LMAutoRepairs thanks for your quick reply. Did you ever try to to program out the passenger seat occupation sensor with autel? I know it fails a lot of times in the bmw, I know that you can do it with ncexpert, but I'm interested about autel capabilities. Because I just ordered one.

@@modestasserpenskas2353 Never did one i think... i mean, not with the autel... but under cheat coding might be possible... Just go through the options available... 👍👍👍

No... You need an Internet connection to download the necessary files... Thank you for watching!

The J2534 is compatible with a few OEM softwares... check Autel website, I believe they have a list in there... Thank you for watching! 👍👍👍

Probably... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

If the egs is part of the immobiliser system, no... You need something like the IM608... I have videos on that... Or any other tool capable of reset the immobiliser on the EGS... Thank you for watching! 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs how about e90 amd 2005 X5? is that needs imobiliser?

@@LMAutoRepairs i wiil watch your vids tho

Don't think those are affected... F series and E65.... if I am not mistaken... Not sure about the X on the E series... That said, you will find out as soon as you connect it... as the car will fail to engage gears, if the immobiliser needs pairing... 👍👍👍

Never tried on that car... can't really advise... Thankn and for watching!

The Elite is the one above the MS908P... So, I would recommend that one... 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs thank you very much for your reply

Hello, I also recommend Elite, because I am also using this product and the experience is not bad. This is a video of me using Elite to perform online programming for the Transmission module of Audi A4L: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ulewXsAKls4.html , share it with you here, you can refer to it.

There are more videos on my homepage of using different devices to do different functions of the car. You are welcome to follow me and I will be happy to answer your questions. thanks.

Under programming... on the first menu once you load the car details... Thank you for watching!

@@LMAutoRepairs Unfortunately, for RR there is no programming option... Just 3 options. Diagnostic - Service - Vehicle profile.

@@LMAutoRepairs but why can i not update the ecu

@@2slow818 Maxisys 908p does it... I don't believe the Maxicom doe it... Check on Autel website...

There is no such tool... You need to compromise depending on what you really need or want... 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs thank you generally which is the best one to buy ?

@BK-it6te Again, depends... If you just require general code reading etc... any low-mid range will do, the likes of Autel, Topdon, Launch... If you require more in depth then you have other tools for that... Or, if you need it just for a brand then other tools apply... You are not saying what you actually want it for, so it is difficult to say...

Hi No... I pay the annual subscription... which includes all the updates for the scanner and for this updates... Thank you for watching!

Hi It will program and code the CAS... but, unfortunately will not program the keys... 👍👍👍

@@LMAutoRepairs ok thanks and I'm going to program a new CAS I purchased but wanted to know if the keys needed to be programmed before or after the CAS?

If you have the tools, you can program the keys on the bench before program it to the car...

@@LMAutoRepairs Ok I brought the Autel KM100 so I should be able to program the key to the CAS after programming the CAS in the car.

☺️ Never used that tool... Let us know how it goes... 🤞 🤞🤞🤞

Hi I do have a battery maintainer now... bought a good one in the mean time... It is a 30amp, used it loads of times after, and seems to work ok. 👍👍 Thank you for watching!

@@cambam2430 sorry sir dint mean to sound rude....puck bmw they lie and trick people so much..example the crank sesor the way they route the wiring overtime the sensor wiring gets loosed causing problems..the manual states that the sensor has to b removed from top when it can b removed frm the bottom really quick after throwing in the garbage all the plastic on the bottom and the little plate with unusual retainers that prevent ur hand frm fitting thru the bottom and rerouting and connecting the harness to the sensor.....I also threw in the garbage the bmw plastic thing that cover the coils and make it longer when testing and removing anything under that area.

Hi In this case was purely to demonstrate the procedure. Look on my channel, I have videos where I change modules, with used ones, and the programming was necessary... Thank you for watching!

I believe you can... You need the j3524 and the subscription updates... but confirm it with Autel themselves... Just to make sure... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

downloads frm autel, autel gets them frm the manufactures....every time u start ur tablet it will show available updates....it usually has updates almost every time I used it.

Autel should be able to do it... Either by editing the VO, or under retrofits... Thank you for watching!

@@LMAutoRepairs do you know anyone that had done it on Autel ? Or do you know of any link on RU-vid for it ? All what I found was INPA

Not INPA... you can't code with INPA... Is with NCS Expert... Again, autel will do it by modifying the VO... Just add +NAUX to the vo, save it and the code the ccc and all the relevant modules... Quite straight forward...

@@LMAutoRepairs does VO means vehicle operations ? Not sure what you mean exactly by VO and CCC Sorry I'm not finding the right way to do it 😭 Do you mind sharing the steps ? Truly appreciate your time

VO=Veichle Order CCC=Car Communication Computer There is step by step guides out there... I am sure... I don't remember now from the top of my head, and if you need a step by step guide, I don't want to give you inaccurate information...

Hi I would guess yes... you need to have it coded etc... Maxisys should be able to fly through that... Thank you for watching and for your comment!

It does not work like that... You pay for 1 year, and you have access to everything until the year runs out...

@@LMAutoRepairs who do you pay 1 year too Autel of Benz? My autel I purchased June 6, 2018 and my free updates end June 6, 2020. . I read that my 2 year updated include the BMW and Benz subscription to program these cars.

I am sure you can... I seen that option when navigating through the menus... Thank you for watching!

@@LMAutoRepairs Thanks bro. I have looked for it in all the options and I don't get it. Basically my problem is that the car arrived with missing or incomplete software codes on dme. I updated and those codes left but now I get the code on dme 2f49 immobilizer anti-tampering protection and the crank but no start vehicle. No spark. Could it be synchronization? Can you enlighten me? any suggestions?

@@jimmygutierrez7242 Was the car starting when arrived to you? Have you checked the VIN on both, DME and CAS? If one of them has been replaced, will not work untill the ISN is transferred... MaxiSys can't do it...

This was just a demonstration... The programming can be beneficial is has been released new versions to correct small problems... A bit like updates... But you need specific tools to do such thing... Thank you for watching! 👍👍👍

Thank you for your response would I need to buy the autel package that comes with programming tool or can I go with standard package just to maintenance like brakes and oil changes and smaller issues?

Yes... for that you have other tools from Autel and other makers...

Which program are you using? Use the VW CV... Thank you for watching!

Yes... you need the ethernet adapter for the F series and above... It is not expensive... I believe on the new 908 that adaptor come with it... not on the old ones... I got my one from Autel directly... It is something worth to have... I never tried any workaround, so not sure if it is possible to do it in any other way... I would say no...

@@LMAutoRepairs I have the Ethernet adapter and everything I’m just not sure on how to connect it, if I can’t have WiFi on how is the autel supposed to download the file needed for the programming? Do you know how to set up the Ethernet on the device ? I tried and still can’t figure it out

@@LMAutoRepairs and I can’t use hotspot because it doesn’t allow me to have WiFi on

😊 The Autel will automatically switch between the ethernet which will be connected to the car, and the Wireless when it needs to download files... Don't need to worry about that...😉

@@LMAutoRepairs so To clarify, I can use the personal hotspot on my iphone to connect to the autel to the internet, and then once the Ethernet is connected to both the OBD and the autel, it will switch between automatically?
