Help!! Coding adventure

Hi I'm new here and starting my "coding" adventure.

I bought 2 sets of these lamps (4 bulbs total) https://www.amazon.com/1156-P21W-Phi.../dp/B00O3GSC2A

I'm getting errors on the dashboard after coding through Vgate Bluetooth 4.0 and Bimmercode app.

I've replaced the outside brake lamp and inside tailgate brake lamp with these and i'm getting a "Left two-stage brake lamp malfunction" and "Right two-stage brake lamp malfunction".

I believe the outside one works fine as I turned on the headlights and they come on. The inside one directly underneath the reverse light is not working?

I've tried many different combinations of coding to get it to go away, but i seem to not be able to.

Here is the link to the Bimmercode app and my settings https://www.flickr.com/photos/kitkit201/shares/DMV39P

Any help is appreciated. Thank you !

I will change break light cold and warm monitoring to (not active), and break light lamp to (LED). I don't know if you have tried that already.

Hi, I just started with bimmercode and I am just trying to automatically fold/unfold the mirrors when locking and unlocking but it is not working. I have power side mirrors. Can someone please advise what I can do to check? Thank you.

There was an update to the Bimmercode app, but I haven't used it since. Let me have a look the next few days, will come back to you. Did you look in the same place I highlighted last time?

Might be worth emailing the developer - he comes back to questions reasonably frequently.

I've been seeing a couple of BMW shops offering Sport Plus coding onto a F48 that only has Sport. Would I be able to code Sport Plus with bimmercode? I see that you can code Sport Plus with F3x, F22/F23 cars. But did not see F48 listed.

Hi, yes I looked there and could not find it. I’ll try to email the developer. Thanks

On my 2018 October production X1, additionally, I needed to go into expert mode in bimmercode, in the Headunit (HU_NBT_EVO) ECU, and then into 3000 HMI. In there, you want "5_FACH_TIPPBLINKEN". This option needs to be set to Aktiv.

This enables the 5 blink option in iDrive. I set the 5 blinks in iDrive and can confirm it works
Nice thx!

Have someone successfully coded "Configuration of driving modes" (menu with Drivetrain & Chassis / Drivetrain / Chassis) ?

Seems the latest app update has changed the layout and available options quite a bit. Did the guy come back to you?

Yeah, he did and he said BMW changed it so that option is not available anymore.

I don’t often go out when dark despite having my car just over a year. I noticed last night the headlights or spot lights do not stay on after I lock the car when it’s dark. I thought they were supposed to stay on for 30 seconds to allow me to get to my front door.
How can I go about fixing this? Will the dealer “kill” this when the car next goes in for service?

I think you have to flash the headlights after switching off the engine. Then they'll stay on for the length of time in the Settings menu for "home lights".

Is there a way to code my fog lights to turn on automatically like my headlights when I have the button on 'automatic'.? I know, I am too lazy to just press the fog lights on button every time

Do you live in a constant foggy weather? If not; then please don't.

What is the code to get rid of that damn legal disclaimer deactivation that pops up every time I start my car? Also, since I did not get the navigation package, I have to pay in order to access Sirus XM, right?

It’s under head unit, Warning at Startup. You can disable it. As for SiriusXM, I don’t have navigation but I have SixiusXM on my 2017.

These are the notes I made when enabling it with eSys...

SM2 - 3000 - EINAUSSTIEGSHILFE = nicht_aktiv (default) -> Modus_FA_SLV (Easy Entry seats)
SM2 - 3012 EAH - EAH_VERFAHRWEG_SLV_PHYS = Werte 00, 3C (60) -> 00, 32 (50) ("traverse" seat)
SM2 - 3012 EAH - EAH_SCHUTZFREIRAUM_HINTEN_SLV_PHYS = Werte 00, 64 (100)-> 00, 3C (60) ("rear space protection")

The module was SM2. The settings I changed to are to the right of the arrow (->), the original setting to the left.

Hope that helps!
