 Tutorial: BMW Series F series Reset FEM BDC mileage eeprom 95128-95256 using Xhorse VVDI BIMTool Pro.

i.e. F20 FEM module

Procedure:
Remove BMW FEM module from the vehicle

Set up bench connection. Connect VVDI BIMTool pro with godiag BMW FEM test platform, FEM module, feed vvdi with 12v+ power supply (very important)

Turn on ignition switch of the godiag test platform

Run Xhorse vvdi bim tool software, go to BMW/FEN Key Learn and Get key Information
As you can see 2 keys are programmed and you can see VIN and current mileage is 183374 KM

Press Reset KM
BIMTool will ask to program FEM/BDC first

Press Program BMW FEM/BDC System

Follow 4 steps to program BMW FEM/BDC

Step 1. Backup coding
Read FEM/BDC coding ia OBDII or on bench
Step 2. Prepare service EEPROM
Open FEM/BDC shell, find 95128/95256 chip position, read EEPROM dump via BDM programmer
Load original eeprom dump and save special EEPROM dump, write special EEPROM dump back to 95128/95256 chip
Restore FEM/BDC shell, provide 12v+ and connect OBD

Step 3. Programming
This operation require connect FEM/BDC on bench and make sure you finish step 1 and step 2
provide 12v+ and connect OBD

Step 4. Restore original eeprom
Open FEM/BDC shell, write original EEPROM Dump read in step 2 back to 95128/95256 chip
Restore FEM/BDC shell, provide 12v+ and connect OBD

Step 5. Restore coding
Load coding file read in step 1, write to FEM/BDC via OBDII, finish FEM/BDC programming

Follow instructions to operate step by step.

First of all backup coding

Step 2

Open FEM/BDC shell, find 95128/95256 chip position, read EEPROM dump

Comfort opening with remote control(power window, sunroof or convertible top)

Comfort closing with remote control(power window, sunroof or convertible top)

Comfort opening (power windows, sunroof or convertible top)

Comfort closing(power windows, sunroof or convertible top)

Then “Save coding file” when completed.

That’s done.

This is how to use VVDI BIMTOOL Pro to enable BMW comfort access to raise the Windows with the fob’s lock button.

How to Fix VVDI BIMTool Pro Flash Error 211?

 The Xhorse VVDI BIMTool Pro reports error 211 when I was trying to flash an EGS transmission.

“Error:211
Error om flash programming

Solution:

Slow down the communication speed between the vvdi bimtool and the control unit.

Go to Option tab- Parameters settings– change programming speed to 1  (it is three by default).

2 Ways to connect Xhorse VVDI BIM Tool Pro

 The main feature of Xhorse VVDI BIM Tool Pro differs from VVDI BWM is adding an DOIP port connection way to extremely increase coding and programming efficiency. Today vvdishop.com will quickly introduce how the 2 connection ways working.

As you can see, there are 2 connections ports on VVDI BIM tool, the left bigger one is DOIP port, the right one is USB port. How do we connect it?

If your computer has only one USB port, then connecting it via USB. Double click BMW tool software, wait a while for connecting… When the bottom bar is showing “Connect 1 OK”, which means VVDI BIM tool has connected with computer successfully.

If you require to use DOIP port, please notice do not plug the wires into 2 ports at the same time. So let us remove the cable and re-plug it into the DOIP port. The other port should be connected with a car for power on. I am now using a test platform instead, the light is on.

Close BMW tool software to restart again. The bottom bar is showing “Connect 2 OK” with its address, which means connection is succeed.

The speed of programming and download data will be much faster when using DOIP connection. Technicians can even finish to program a single module in 15-20 minutes.

VVDI BIMTool Pro not only allows to perform key programming for locksmith, but also provide maintenance and diagnosis features for car repair shops. All those can be done via USD & DOIP connection ways.
