Wiring is a pain but worth it. I didn't take pics of my E70 install, but I cut a steel plate to cover the factory camera cutout and put the aftermarket one there. For E60 & E90 I purchased cameras...

HUD should be no problem. I don't have it on my E70 but my E60 M5 has HUD and it works fine with an Avin head unit. Most (all?) of the Android head units let you access the CCC/CIC system.

Maybe I spaced out on that since I haven't had the e-box open for months. Sounds plausible - one physical module that appears as two modules in ISTA.

Both of them? Did you order 2 replacements? I'd still check for power there, not just fuse continuity.



I can't remember the specifics but am 90% sure I did it though ISTA. Your list of codes...

Sounds suspect that both are red. Have you confirmed they are getting power? That was the issue with my E70, or at least one of many issues.

Looks like CAN isn't a factor as the struts are not directly on the bus in the F15 or E70, but I'd still be surprised if they fit physically or were compatible otherwise.

It is absolutely not encrypted. If if the message payload were you would still see CAN messages if your hardware/software were functioning properly.

No, it is already terminated at each end or else it wouldn't work. If you add another device that has a termination resistor it will likely disrupt existing bus communication.

I posted saying that won't work then I read about it. The name is deceiving - RS485 is not the same as CAN, but looks like that device does both.

There are 120 ohm termination resistors at each end of the bus, see https://www.kmpdrivetrain.com/paddleshift/practical-tips-can-bus/. I believe the E53 has them at the cluster and DSC.
