Got it! Found the Modlight site. Way more straight forward than trying to use PA Soft BMW Decoder 1.4! LOL
Speaking of...
I have a really odd, or at least I think it is an odd issue. I'm running a Windows 7 64bit laptop. I downloaded the Demo version of the BMW Decoder1.4 application first, and it connected to my cable and communicated with my 2006 X54.4i with no trouble. But it doesn't do much but listen to the car and run a module error check. I can't clear any errors or code anything. So I searched for a copy of the full version and I found a link on an E46fanatics thread for a CD image of the full application. Burned the CD, installed the executable and am completely stymied.
When I opened the shortcut I keep getting the same message, "Cable Drivers installed" "Cable not connected". It is in fact connected to the car and ignition is on. I've tried every procedure for installing and reinstalling drivers for the cable I can find, and nothing is working.
Here is the cable that I have...
VAG-COM VCDS Cable USB Scanner Tool OBD 2 FTDI 409.1 VW Audi Ross Tech INPA BMW | eBay
I can get to the settings window in the Demo version and i can select the cable, port, and configuration, and even if i make changes it still works?? In the full version I can't get past the pop-up window, there is a link to a folder of drivers, but I can't use them on my 64bit OS, and an exit button.
I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I'll be damned if I can figure out what it is. Any and all help, advise, berating is welcome.
