I recently replaced my 676 hifi amp with 674 hk amp, but find it sound unbalanced.

I try to add FA 674 and delete 676 but was error when calculate FP. Can’t proceed further.

Anything I miss out?

hi,

I am adding a most decoder and a DSP, I have changed Amplifier_Variant = Most, Audio_System = HK_Surround but the audio signal doesnt seems to route thru MOST to my DSP. What am I doing wrong with the coding?

Help!!

Hi!!

I have a question: I installed the Harman Kardon system on my bmw m235i.
From the factory my car came with a basic audio system: 4 speakers and 2 subwoofer.
Do I need to code the new Harman Kardon amplifier?

Picture 1: Old amp
Picture 2: New amp HK

I use Bimmercode App

Something from shawnsheridan :

You can can add or remove W-Wort (aka E Words) and HO-Wort (aka K Words) using E-Sys the same as you would to add an SALAPA-Element (aka SA Words).

Usually E Words are battery related, and K Words are for official BMW Retrofits.

This main list of options then, when you VO code, dictates the settings needed inside other control units such as the HU and the Amp in line with your cars other options.

Yes, you will need to change the options on the FA adding the code for the Harmon Kardon and some other things.

Have a look at THIS post, it should help

Have a look at Post #6 in this post that will tell you what top change with BimmerCode.

The attached file will help you with VO coding. It is by far the best way.

Double check how you connect to the car correctly as this is for F30/F80 not F22/F23

Hey, stu. I'm new here and read through the post trying to find a solution to my issue and seems like you might be the guy! As I'm a new user, I can't pm yet but if you read this, I'd be greatly appreciative for some help.

So I bought a 12' 335i with the top hifi s688a sound system and found the amplifier was wet/ruined. Went on ebay and found a replacement amplifier of the exact model, etc. HU recognized the new amplifier plugged in(audio tones, eq works, mute/unmute shows up, radio stations display what's playing, etc). But have no audio sound or door chimes.
Only thing I've been able to find is I'll need to program the new(used) amplifier module to my ecu or VO, as it recognizes my old amplifiers module.
I wish I'd of done more research prior to the purchase as all I know is it either came from a 5 or 7 series and the seller avoided my messages on trying to find more information on it.

I have the ob2 to ethernet cable, a laptop, but need the program to do whatever is needed. A little more information from competent users would place me on the right direction of doing all this myself and much more in the future.

Thanks in advance, Brandon

This will then change some of the settings in each associated modules in line with the entire list of codes in the FA.

For example, if you added the HK amp. You would add 688 to the SALAPA element and then VO code the HU_NBT_EVO (or other HU_CIC or HU_CHAMP). This would then change all the following settings, at once, to integrate the new HK amp to the car head unit:

HU_NBT_EVO > AUDIO_TUNER_TRAFFIC 3002 > AMPLIFIER_VARIANT = most
HU_NBT_EVO > AUDIO_TUNER_TRAFFIC 3002 > AUDIO_SYSTEM = hk_surroundsound
HU_NBT_EVO > AUDIO_TUNER_TRAFFIC 3002 > AUDIO_SYSTEM_VAR = variant1 [Default]
HU_NBT_EVO > AUDIO_TUNER_TRAFFIC 3002 > EQ_VARIANT = variant5
HU_NBT_EVO > AUDIO_TUNER_TRAFFIC 3002 > MULTICHANNEL = nicht_aktiv [Default]
HU_NBT_EVO > HMI 3000 > LOGIC7_SYMBOL = aktiv
HU_NBT_EVO > SYSTEM_EINSTELLUNGEN 3004 > EXTERNER_MOST = aktiv

The other way to do it is FDL code each individual element above manualy, changing each value one by one.

VO coding is better. It ensures you code all the relevant settings, which you may miss if there is a big list of effected setting values.
Hi! How did you get the VO coding list? Can you please give the same list for Hi-Fi option (676)?
