Faulty BEST version when reading FRM module for 2011 R56
Hey guys. I'm trying to access the FRM module but this message always pops up. So far the only successful programming i've done is in the CAS and KOMBI modules, although i also can't get in SKPEG (forgot how to spell it) to complete the heartbeat alarm mod. I'd like to access the FRM module to take out the bulb checks. Any input would be great. I've so far tried v41, v38 datens so far. My INPA and NCS expert versions are the latest ones (from the Complete DIY thread). The message prompt is shown below

I wish I could tell you what to do with the 2011 Mini but I dont have one and cant check for sure...
You had V38 I believed but in order for it to work, the set up I used was the V32 files in the c:\ediabas\ecu folder
and
V38 or V40 for everything else.
I believe the problem is v38/40 for ediabas
try this and let me know.

I think I've finally come up with the right combination to prevent this error.
The problem comes about from the fact that only complete and installable version of the EDIABAS software available on the net is too old to work with the new datens.
So, here's what to do:
NOTE: If you also use the GT1/DIS V57 software, then version 7.2.0 of EDIABAS does not appear to work with it. You may need to revert back to the V6.x EDIABAS to use GT1.
Good luck!

So, here's what to do:
- Install NCS Expert/INPA/EDIABAS exactly as laid out in GTECKO's very helpful download and How-To guides.
- Update your datens to the latest V41 files.
- Download the following file: ftp://94.212.182.18/INPA-EDIABAS/EDIABAS_7_2_0.rar
- Make a complete copy of your existing C:\EDIABAS folder into something like C:\EDIABAS.old - just in case. Ensure that you also save a copy of the C:\EDIABAS\BIN\EDIABAS.INI file - you'll need it for step 6.
- OVERWRITE the files and directories in your C:\EDIABAS folder with the ones in the RAR file.
- Replace the newly extracted EDIABAS.INI file in C:\EDIABAS\BIN with the original version you saved in step 4.
NOTE: If you also use the GT1/DIS V57 software, then version 7.2.0 of EDIABAS does not appear to work with it. You may need to revert back to the V6.x EDIABAS to use GT1.
Good luck!

Cool i'll give this a try possibly after finals this wednesdays. I'll need to laden.bat back to v41 and then upgrade the EDIBIAS software to the one you linked. Will report back later.
edit: speaking of which, does anyone know which module and which code to look for to disable the TMPS light and/or sounds?

I just tried Chernobyl's method but it doesn't seem to work for me. I ran INPA to wait for the two black dots and couldn't get them to light up no matter what. I tried going straight to NCS expert to try and read the ECU but no go, after selecting the CAS module after selecting R56, i get a VIN FAULTY error.
As for GTECKO's method, i could not try it because i don't have the V32 datens.

So, you need to grab a copy of the original ediabas.ini file from your original installation (you did keep a backup copy right?) and then use it to replace the file the gets extracted from the .RAR file.
I'm pretty sure that should get the new version up and running (hopefully I haven't forgotten any other steps). I've corrected my original post above to add this step.

If you're new to coding, the few extra steps above will reduce the overall fear factor associated with the process - and I think that makes it worthwhile. You won't have to worry about switching back and forth between datens or getting cryptic BEST version errors when coding. On that basis, I'd recommend adding it into your How-To instructions, but it's your choice.
Cheers!

I have a 2008 S, and none of the combinations listed in this thread work. Any suggestions on where to go from here? I've tried v38, v41, v32, all of them with 6.x and 7.2 of ediabas. I'm trying to default the car so my new VO with the rear fog lights will take effect. Or if anyone knows which modules I need to reset singularly, that would be great too.
