Found it, not in head unit.

As I mentioned earlier, its showing coding that is incorrect when reading.
For instance tire temperature with TPMS shows inactive, when is is active. I had it coded by a guy with E-Sys.
Shows DRL in unknown.
Im afraid of what else it reads wrong, and recodes it wrong. I can't look at _every_ parameter.

Sorry. You're right. It's BDC i think. I don't know why I said head unit.

Right, but what do you think of it reading my existing coding incorrectly

Are you using the Vgate iCar 2 Wi-Fi OBD adapter?

Yup, only one that will work with Bimmercode.

Waiting for response from developer before I try to code.

3)


3064 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_L_output = nsl_l
3064 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_L_Function = nebelschlusslicht
3064 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_R_output = nsl_l
3064 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_R_Function = nebelschlusslicht




These options enable the correct outputs on the BDC to activate the lights. You could choose to have only one light on if you wished


I believe line 3 is incorrect, should it not be this:


3064 Mapping_Nebelschlussl_R_output = nsl_r

How do you install the euro switch? Do you pull on the panel?

Pull the side panel first, one screw, then pull the under panel, 6 retainer clips.
Switch has tabs, one connector.

Anyone else notice the latest Bimmercode update no longer sees the BDC.

All I get from the developer is the same response overtime I ask a question.
It will be fixed in the next revision. HA!!

EDIT

Due to the new mandatory recode by MINI, Stephan at Bimmercode needs to rewrite his software, as MINI made it harder to access.

Its an internal recall. Any MINI from 2013 to 2017 that goes into a dealer gets this:
