Here comes the common problem with BMW CAS3 key programming via OBD:

BMW X1 2011 CAS3++ istap now cannot turn on with the working key. I downgraded CAS3, did put battery support on (GYS Flash) but Wifi cut out during update. And it failed now no ignition.

Here are the working solutions for those who failed BMW cas3++ via OBD withautel im508/im608.

2 Solutions:

1. Try Repair online first

2. if not success then try ECUs repair by dump

Solution 1: online repair

There is a repair option withvvdi2via obd, worth a try first.

If not then autel has a repair option also.

With the im608/im508, you have the repair files, remove CAS, backup what’s left, upload to autel (via 60 , receive files back (it’s instant), reinstall repair files.

Check the step-by-step guide in im608 below.

(*If all keys lost situation. It may have also lost ISN so repair will not let car start but ignition will come back. Then you need to read ECU isn and do CAS renew on autel to fix.)

Solution 2: Repair by dump

Need to remove CAS from car and read it with a programmer. NO need to replace CAS.

If you havehextagread the eeprom, put it into hexprog and it can change file to a running file write back to the eeprom, all up and running. Check:Repair BMW CAS3+ Data Corruption with Hextag

If don’t have a hextag, read with other programmer. Read with prog uploaded files to autel for CAS repair , repaired files written back with extra key added works fine.

Autel gives good fix on bench as well.

How to Repair BMW CAS3 and Add a Key withautel maxiim im608?

Model example: BMW X1 CAS3++ istap 2011 with Mask 0L15Y

Step 1: Read EEPROM & FLASH

Uninstall CAS box and welding cable apa109

Left key customer key that cannot start now

Right is new key

Connect xp400 pro and apa109 cable via USB port. The im608 has built in colored schematics with great quality pictures. Soldering is the hardest part.

(How to check wiring diagram: Go to Programmer- Chip -Chip Read & Write – Immobilizer- BMW – CAS3+ – 0L15Y -RW -Schematic diagram)

Select Immo- BMW- Manual Selection- X1- 2008/09-2015/06 E84 – Control unit- CAS3/CAS3+ Immobilizer -ECU operation

Follow the instructions in the help information for strict operation

Show ECUs operation guide and schematic diagram

Select 0L15Y-Read EEPROM

Save eerpom file, i.e BMW CAS3+_0L15Y_OM23S_EEPROM-07052021.bin

Read Flash

Read Flash success, save flash data i.e BMW CAS3+_0L15Y_OM23S_FLASH_07052021.bin

Step 2: ECU Repair

Select Special function- ECU repair- 0L15Y/0M23S

Load the EEPROM file of the current vehicle (select CAS3+_0L15Y_OM23S_EEPROM-07052021.bin read in step 1)

The file is being modified. Save new file.

EEPROM file is saved successfully, i.e CAS3PlusEepromFileEdit-07052021.bin

Load FLASH file (select CAS3+_0L15Y_OM23S_FLASH-07052021.bin read in step 1)

Save new flash file. i.e CAS3PlusFlashFileEdit-07052021.bin

Step 3: How to Add a New Remote Key

Next show how to add new remote

Back to Key operation – Key Learning- Make key with file- 0L15Y/0M23S

Load the EEPROM data, select the new FileEdit eeprom read in step 2

Verify VIN, mileage and frequency information

Choose key position 3 and press write key

Press Add key

Put a working key into xp400 programmer

Reading key information

Read key info successfully, proceed with the next step

Select semi smart key

Put new key into the programmer

Writing key

Save new eeprom file

Flash the new car eeprom file into car, then use the new dealer key to start the engine.

If CAS belong to is istap version, don’t write new file back to CAS.

Go back to ECU Operation- 0L15Y -Write eeprom

Load Modify eeprom bin file

Writing eeprom file successfully

Write flash

Load FileEdit flash file, wait 7-8mints to write flash

Write flash successfully

Now this CAS can start engine with normal operation.

Keep in mind, it’s always a risk doing istap through obd bench is much easier and safer it was a pain to recover the files.

My dad has a 2012 Chevy Equinox that uses newer GM network platform. No diagnostic coverage using a GM Tech2. The Equinox has been suffering some BCM problems lately with no way to plug in. Only thing I could get was powertrain codes using a cheap scanner.

Anyway GM MDI 2. Used. I got a good MDI clone from atrustedsourceobdii365.com. I have used this site since July 2015.

Bought amdi2 wifi version with a hard drive. Came in today. It uses a laptop.

This interface can do system diagnostics and ….added bonus….program replacement modules.

There is a MDI 1 version too. I don’t mind if clone mdi 2 is same as mdi 1. I saw people using it without a problem.

Old Acer laptop is now setup with the GM MDI manager software. GDS2 identifies it as aMDI2.

So then wireless GM GDS2 diagnostics from home network(using ACDelco 3 day subscription)tolaptop in garage…..then wireless from laptop to the MDI 2 in the car 30 feet away….it does work.

Lots of BCM codes. Equinoxmain problems were the wipers and washer would cycleon at key on…..4 way flashers were coming on 30 minutes after key off. Both go thru the BCM.

Equinox is fixed with a new BCM. Ended up having local GM shop program the new BCM.

In case someone is interested, these are the PCBs ofGM MDI2 SP163-E(Wi-Fi Version).

Main benefits of an ICOM from our perspective:

1. Wireless diagnosis connection
2. Ease of use in a shop with multiple active connections
3. Self-hosted DHCP server for ethernet programming

There are several ICOM Next clone multiplexers available in obdii365.com, which one of them is the best?

All other ICOM Next clones are discontinued due to lack of chips. Only SP269-B1 (and its software package) and SP269-D (its software package) are available.

Both have WiFi connection.

Both firmware can be updated.

ICOM Next clone SP269-B1PCB

Price: $349 – $399

Some positive reviews:

1.

ICOM Next is faster than the old bmw icom. It is also better built IMHO.
And Next is WIFI available also.
It handles multiprogramming and coding quite nicely.
Gets the job done much faster if flashing the complete vehicle.
Another benefit to Next will be compatibility for future cars.

2.

I have icom next clone it works perfectly didn’t faced any issues.

3.

My Chinese NEXT is working for more than year and everything is OK so far. I paid much more for it , but ye you get what you paid for.

4.

It’s very good, the only thing you have to know it is the caps for usb enet etc, they won’t be really helpful bc they open all the time, However the quality is very good, enet cable is very long, OBD cable is very durable. Like it so much.

5.

ICOM Next clone SP269-D

The advantage of this icom next is that the VX Manager can detect the device connection status. And it is much cheaper then SP269-B1. If you do want to keep it, then have a read on that website from where you downloaded VX Manager, you need to run other software before it will EMULATE an ICOM.

It takes $269 only with HDD.

For those with the Icom Next clone with VCXDoIP:

It’s a very powerful tool that can emulate all sorts of diag hardware for BMW, VAG, GM, BENZ, Porsche…

No need for DHCP server or router, it’s build in.

– Firmware update 1.49 is available via VXManager.

– For connection with ista-p you need to download BMW ptt driver from VXDiag, start Pass-Thru app in VXManager and emulate by loading dll. Make sure its set to SAEJ2534

– For connection with ista-d you need to set connect via icom/ethernet local network in ista settings.
If your license is valid you can also use cloud software

– For connection E-sys sometimes ZGW is not detected on first try, select connect via icom/ethernet tcp://<icom ip adress>:50160 than close connection. Now ZGW is available and connection can be made via vin or gateway url.

How to Update ICOM Next clone firmware SP269-D?

The ICOM Next choice would beOriginal ICOM Next > ICOM Next SP269-B1 > ICOM Next SP269-D

Problem:

I have uploaded the original smart key of the Toyota CHR 2019 (8A chip). I am strangling to make all key lost on that car for 2 weeks withLonsdor K518ISE.
My dealer send me Lonsdor FT01+v1.2 to generate and collect data.
It fails to collect and is asking for a different PCB.

Solution:

Wrong pcb, you needft11 H0410Cboard to collect data.

FT11 is the only one that can collect data for all key lost.

i did this two days ago with chr 2019 too. work fine. You also need theToyota AKL license.
