BMW F30 3 Series Coding DIY - Code Auto Start Stop, DVD, Folding Mirrors, Etc.

Hi Sahwn, this afternoon (in Italy) i tryed to downgrade HU_NBT and JBBF as i tell you in PM.
These two ecus are related to ZGW2 ecu, so i program this one also.
I read and apply carefully the guide you sent me and the result is that i was able to program ZGW2 ecu but not HU_NBT and JBBF.
When I start TAL programming, after 3 seconds this error appears:

TAL execution started.
VCM Update: VCM-Update is deactivated. VCM will not be updated. [C197]
Fatal error while executing tal!
[] - [Exception - UNKNOWN] FA must not be null when trying to execute a TAL containing coding transactions
Asynchrone programming failed! [C049]
FA must not be null when trying to execute a TAL containing coding transactions [1358]

I presume that ZGW2 ecu is not affected by v55 i-step, so the cafdata files and others files on 54.1 are the same on the ecu.
Some ideas?
I take a picture of the screen just before to start programming ecus, you can see red and green cafdata files on the ecus expanded FA tree....could help?
Thx

Good afternoon Shawn. In need of some links to optimize my newly acquired F30 335i. As always, your help is much appreciated.

AlbaF10 · 04-06-2015, 04:45 PM

Ok Shawn, i uncheck the cdDeply flag and ecus have flashed (JBBF, HU_NBT and ZGW2).
But now, the cafd data showed on FA tree is missing from HU-NBT and JBBF!!!!!!!!
AAARRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!
When i read the FA and read SVT to code the ecus, i cant'find cafdata row from the programmed (downgraded) ecus, but cafdata rows is still present from the other ecus......
Any idea?
Thanks a lot....if i reach to finisch the downgrade i write you a guide to help each other!

Try injecting CAFD with Detect CAF for SWE and then VO Code ECU.

First of all I want to thank ShawnSheridan for his kindness, availability and professionalism, without him I would be lost in nothingness

I own a 520d Luxury (LCi end 2013), recently upgraded with new trimmed I-Step (V.55 cafdata).
So, i decide to downgrade the firmware of some ecus (the only ones i want to code) to v54 (previous I-Step).
CAS module, HU_NBT module and JBBF module are the ones i want to code.
I use the guide to flash firmware, paying attention to dependencies, and i see that to downgrade the CAS module i have to downgrade almost all ecus.....
So i decide to downgrade only HU-NBT and JBBF that have only dependance with ZGW2.
I flash ZGW2 before the other ones as suggested.
When i try to flash HU-NBT and JBBF an erorr occurred because i check the cdDeploy flag when starting the TAL coding.
When a downgrade from trimmed cafd files has performed, the flag of cdDeply must be unchecked.
The flash was succesful, HU_NBT, JBBF and ZGW2 are running v54 while all others ecus are running v55 and the car is perfect.
But when i try to code these ecus I discovered that cafd rows are missing in both ecus (opening and activate FA, read SVT and expand ecus tree).
Again, thanks to Shawn, i manually inject the cafd files and code it into the ecu, and finally i was able to code!
This is the porcedure to manually injecting cafd file where missing:
Connect => Read FA (VO) => Activate FA (VO) => Read SVT (VCM) => Left-Click on desired ECU => Click on "Detect CAF for SWE" => Select the CAFD from latest I-Level shown => Select OK => Right-Click on ECU (the ECU itself not the underlying CAFD) => Select CODE.

Finally, i can testify that is possible to downgrade only interested ecus to a codable I-Step version (V.54) and whole car and ecus work correctly.

I also wanted to thank you Shawn for helping me out the other day when I managed to delete my DME ecu.

You are truly an invaluable asset to all of us. We'd be lost without you.

Thanks again

oln08 · 04-09-2015, 04:47 PM

thanks shawn. I am able to code again even with the newest update from BMW.
