Read/Clear Fault Codes, Details & Freeze Frame Data:įor example, here is how to Read Codes (Read Fault Memory/Fehlerspeicher lesen) in the DME or Engine ECU using INPA:ġ) Connect to the module: select the correct DME in the right-hand Listbox (MSV80 on my 2007 328xi E91) Press Enter Ģ) The DME Main Menu (Hauptmenu) appears: press F4, Fault Memory (Fehlerspeicher) ģ) The Fault Memory (Fehlerspeicher) Menu appears: Press F1, Read Fault Memory (Fehlerspeicher Lesen) Ĥ) The Fault Memory Issues (Fehlerspeicher Ausgaben) Menu appears: Press F1 for Short description of code (Kurz), F2 for (some) Details, or F3 for Full Freeze Frame Details of fault & conditions at time fault code was saved in DME memory. This shows ALL codes, including those that NEVER set a warning light, such Oil Wear Fault codes in Transmission or Transfer case. See later below for use of 'Functional Jobs' to quickly see ANY Fault Codes saved in ANY of ~ 20 modules, in 2 minutes or less. F4 'Fehlerspeicher' or Fault Memory is basically the same for each module.

If ALL you want to do (at least at present) is read and clear codes, then INPA is NOT difficult to learn, even the original version which is ALL German. On my BimmerGeeks cable, connected to my 2007 328xi E91, INPA connects when that switch is 'to the right.' Click to expand.You don't say WHOSE K+DCAN cable you have, but if it is like BimmerGeeks, here is what they state about the switch: 'As for the switch, left is for old chassis like e46 etc, right is for new chassis like e90 etc.ignore the middle position.' My recollection is that switch activates a bridge between certain pins on the OBD II socket.
