I do not know of a single person yet who has successfully bought a 7E SLI FSC Code.

I have the following equipment in my car:
5AGA - LCW
5ALA - Active protection
5DFA - AAC + Stop&Go
5DPA - Park Assistant
8THA - SLI
610A - HUD

Can I by coding enable both LDW and HBA?
I think I have KAFAS camera and not KAFAS2.

YOU have KAFAS Camera due to 8TH SLI, and same camera supports LDW and HBA. You can code these things, but at the hardware level, you will be missing the steering wheel vibrator for LDW (unless you happen to have Active Blind-Spot Detection too) and the steering wheel stalk switch for HBA.

I have the blind spot..it vibrates if I try to activate sideblinker and there is a car in the lane. So I guess it's the same vibrator?

I am trying to get the stalk switch for HBA from a wrecked car

Yes, same Vibrator.

What is the correct partnumber for the switch panel that includes LDW?

I found both 61319232638 and 61319268479.
But the graphich on 61319268479 is a bit different on the middle switch...

Its possible. I have bought them. Dont know if im the first to be able to do so but I have purchsed them from a seller who dealt with BMW AG.

My problem is that i have imported the FSC (FSC accepted). Added 8TH to my VO and coded relevant ECU's but i still get "---" in display.

Shawn is currently helping me trying to get it working. I'm hoping its a simple code issue.

Well in this case lets rally around mario123 this could help a lot of us.

Let me know how to get the files you need we can even skype whilst I am in the car and we can figure this out, after all we do have shawnsheridan helping

It is not looking good for Mario.

It would be better to be testing this in a known country that supports SLI. Australia does not, so it is difficult to isolate why his is still not working with new 7E FSC Code and SLI Coding.

I really want to be the first to have it working on an F30...
I'm hoping it ends up being a simple coding issue.

MyFastM3 will share his Kafas coding with me...that might give an insight.

No.

7E - Speed Limit Info
BE - Front Collision Warning
BF - Pedestrian Detection

Okay guys an update and it doesnt look good.

i have found a post on another forum which contains an extract on how the system works. Part of it is below.

"Supplementary sign recognition The system can only recognize signs that are included in its database. Text references to supplementary signs cannot be read or interpreted.
Before speed limits with limiting validity are displayed, the system scans further information from the vehicle electrical system.

The system can’t read text, it can only recognize a sign that is included in the “sign database” – therefore the system was programed extensively in 48 US states + western/eastern Canada therefore all speed limit signs (10-80 mph + signs as e.g. “Trucks”, “Trailers”, “School”, “Construction area”) are normally (when conditions allow) recognized by the camera. "


So if Australian maps don't have this "sign database" camera will never match anything it captures. hence why I never get any readings.

Sort of makes sense now I guess.

I know I have LDW and want SLI, what else do I need as a prerequisite?
From what I understand is that I need the 7E FSC code to enable SLI function?

This is my first BMW so I am clueless to coding and such.

As long as you have a kafas camera you can enable SLI with 7E FSC code.

You should experience yourself first with simple coding and get comfortable before endeavoring with SLI. My recommendation only.

I have purchased FSC code for my car and imported it however it doesn't work and I suspect it is because my country doesn't have the needed data in the nav maps. See my post above.

Ahh yes I will try all the simple stuff first before I take on this endeavor. I was just wondering if it was possible

How do I know I have a kafas camera?

Can you pm me where you purchased your FSC code?

Thanks for the advice

When you start coding you will see if you have a Kafas2 ECU. You can Google what the camera looks like as well.

Hi everyone,
I am new on this forum and new in the BMW world.
I´v read the whole thread and have a question, especially to Shawnsheridan:
Is it for sure that SLI can´t be coded in a car that has just FLA camera, no KAFAS?
I have got F32 from april 2015 and have just HBA with FLA, no KAFAS, and added 8TH to my VO and coded relevant ECU's and I get "---" in display, and get no warnings in the car info. I have not imported the FSC. Is it worth to try to imort the FSC (if I ever get it) to get 8TH to work?

You must have KAFAS ecu. FLA will not work.
