Help: NCSExpert Not loading FA line
Platform I'm attempting to code:
I searched high and low for the symptoms that I'm getting while trying to initiate NCS Expert software, but got a dead end. This is my first time trying to code features. The error message that I get when going through the procedure... 1)Open NCS Expert 2) Load Profile > Expertmode 3) F1 (VIN/ZCS/FA) 4) F3 (ZCS/FA f.ECU) 5) Choose CHASSIS (dialogue box and select E89) 6) Choose ECU > CAS 7) >>>>> I get the error message - - Following feature is invalid for FA: #0308 The only thing that I can think of that is causing this issue is: a) I'm using a buddy's laptop that has the software pre-installed (INPA worked perfectly, but I could not get DISv57, or NCS Experts to) b) Aftermarket Eonon headunit... is this a dealbreaker? (I think the stock one is in a box somewhere) ***UPDATE*** I did much more reading and decided to go through every prerequisite to ensure that I had NCS Expert working. After updating all daten file folders and EDIBAS files, I am now able to code successfully. That's what I get for trying to run through the standard coding tutorials with my buddy's version of NCS Expert intended for his 2001 E39. Thanks for all the help!

I will double check. Thanks

Do you have proper DATEN files installed?
Does NCSexpert at least see your VIN?

Not sure what I would have to do as far as DATEN files go. NCSexpert does recognize VIN automatically. Any recommended guides to read through to troubleshoot? Seems like I should be able to go into the airbag menu from INPA to run a diagnostic check, but I got the error pictured. Any ideas? Last edited by crimpwimp; 06-01-2019 at 04:11 AM..

Bimmergeeks software is known to work with our cars.
https://www.bimmergeeks.net/downloads I would blow out the setup you have and run with the BimmerGeeks version.

Just yesterday, I was able to torrent dl newer v47.1 E89 daten files. After moving files to corresponding folders and also update EDIABAS version, I was able to get NCS Expert loaded and code out TPMS to convert to FTM system instead. Still not sure if I need to load the latest daten files, but will incrementally find out... Thanks for the help! |
