Ok, you will need to install this is another Dir if you want your GT1 to work as well, the GT1 and SSS require EDIABAS v3.0.1; anything else and the SSS/GT1 don't work.

Very good point Thanks for the tip. I will install the latest on another PC not to mess up and eventually use another DIR. The problem I am facing is that I (INPA) can not see the DME. I suppose it is accessible via CAN so I just bought another IF CAN capable or it could be a software limit.
Ah Ok, Yes, could be, what version are you using for the glue (v3.0.1 or something else).

Progman: excellent and quite easy and straight to use;

I suppose you know where to get it...do you?
Yeap, I ahve streamlined the process too, so I have full images ready maade and ready to go (just in case I need to swap laptops).

Sounds like you are well on your way mate

..such a huge world; so much to learn...I am fascinated by NCS but did not "play" so far...

NCS is very scary, one wrong move and your modules are toast.... I have a few thing I want to enable (that GT1 and SSS can't), but so far not had the time (seat memory for passenger seat etc)...

Can't be done without a big spend mate, the passenger side motors are a different part number, without the position encoders.

You'd need a LHD driver seat harness with the extra wires and the motors, as well as the LHD memory switch.

You may also need an iBus connection to the passenger seat as the position is stored in the ZKE, and possibly GND a pin in the seat switch to ID it as the passenger side.

I have the LHD memory buttons/switch unit and have tried it (plugging it in) and the seat position adjusters worked ok, but not the memory stuff.

Hmmm, when running the inpa software there is an option under the seat menu that allows remote adjustment, I assumed that the switch module could use that for seat memory,

Ah, ok maybe scrub that idea then.

Hi mate


I've found the memory button lights up then goes out immediately if there is no iBus connection to the switch (pin 9), which may be what you are experiencing, and you need to add a wire to the vehicle. I think the seats are identified on the bus or in the coding SW as LEFT and RIGHT, rather than DRIVER and PASSENGER, so you could give it a go and see what happens. PN 61307036125 ($332) for example is listed as for LHD and RHD 645i but when you click through, it's not offered. I've checked the schematics now, the only difference is pin 9 iBus on both seats on the 6 series.

Dunno about coding, sorry.
