E-Sys Coding on F60?
Hi all,
New around here, and new to Minis in general. Just took possession of my 2017 Countryman S All4, and there are a few things I'd like to modify so I've been doing some reading about using E-Sys to program things like disabling the seatbelt chime (yes, I'll still wear my seatbelt), allowing nav use while driving (yes, I only want this so my wife can enter nav destinations while I'm driving), enabling auto window up with the key fob, etc. Anyone with an F60 done this? I see plenty of resources for older minis and BMWs, but curious if the same instructions apply for this model. I have a ENET cable on the way, so I'm happy to give it a shot and report back, just figured I'd see if anyone had tried already and had success (or not) to report. |

Does the F60 not allow Nav input while driving? That's new. My F56 always did, even before coding. |

E-Sys works with all F-series cars, so without a doubt, it will work. You may have to select F56, if F60 isn't listed.

My wife and I just picked up new 2017 F60 and F56. The coding doesn't seem to match any of the lists that have been published that I'm finding. I'll be curious what your experience will be.

- no legal disclaimers - tire pressure & temp reading - mirror folding w/door locking - BMW gongs - radio off w/door opening - full texts viewable w/SMS - 5x soft turn signal - GPS time sync - iPhone inbound ringer Etc., etc. |

I will follow this with interest. My 2018 F60 will be here in a few weeks and I will definitely want to code it. I am searching for the correct E-Sys cable for the F60- but maybe too early to be available? If anyone has a link to a cable that will work with the F60, I will get it purchased. Many thanks!

It's an OBD to ethernet cable, should be same for any F series car.
|
Got it and found one. Thanks MTM!

Got my ENET cable, now waiting for 1 of 2 things to happen:
1. TokenMaster to give me an activation key so I can use E-SYS Launcher Premium on a VM on my Mac. 2. My brother to let me borrow his Windows PC so I can use it without waiting for an activation code. Fingers crossed codes from F56 actually work on F60. |

It worked! Borrowed a windows laptop and my cheap ENET cable off of Amazon worked great for reading and editing codes.
Couple of things: 1. Not all codes are in the same place as F56, but I was able to search for names of functions and found most of them. There were a couple that weren't there (or they were named something else that I couldn't figure out), like Unlock Door on Engine Off. 2. Some codes were already enabled that I didn't expect to be based on F56 forums, like Turn off MMI when door is opened and A/C remembers last setting. 3. Some codes don't seem to have worked: Enable Turn Signals in HUD, Enable Speech Input for SMS, Display tire temp. I also can't seem to find the code for folding the mirrors when I press the comfort access button on the door handle to lock the car. But here's what I did get working: Disable Welcome Gongs Turn off seatbelt reminder chimes Close windows, sunroof, and mirror from keyfob Illuminate door handle LEDs on reverse Remove legal disclaimers And a few I haven't tested yet, but was able to code: Change mirror to unfold at 12mph Set cell phone ringtone as primary Turn on brake force flashing with hard brake Video in motion Enable video from usb Enable saving video files to NBT hard drive Disable Office speed function lockout Enable full text lines while driving Enable timestamp for call log |

I also can't seem to find the code for folding the mirrors when I press the comfort access button on the door handle to lock the car. Speech input for SMS? Just hold down (versus push) voice button on steering wheel, and it will activate SIRI Handsfree, and you can just have "her" compose an SMS. Tire temp you should DEFINITELY be able to do, but I forget the section. Look in HU_NBT though, I would think. Mirror-folding is Spiegel Beiklappen bei Komfort Schließung, or something similar. I refined my coding yesterday, to where it now folds IMMEDIATELY upon locking doors (werte=0 [seconds]). I would very very shocked if any coding possibilities that work on F56 do not also work on F60. I won't have my F60 until next month, however. |
Csader:
HU_NBT 3001 RDC_SAFETY and/or RDC_Druck_Temp Default: Druck Change to: Druck und Temeratur = Aktiv Let us know. This is a helpful list: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bwv...hKSWdRTDg/view |

I gotta get this going too. My 2018 F60 needs some E-SYS love. How does one get the E-SYS software?

This seller has online guides, tutorials and actually answers emailed questions. You can probably buy a $10 cable, but I like his support of the project and I know his cable works. |
Very cool! Just ordered it!
|
Odd thing: the one thing I have failed to code is tire temps. I easily did it on my F56, but it just doesn't seem to take on the F60. Anyone have any luck doing that?

Look in BDC for one of these three parameters and change to "aktiv". They seem to vary depending on which software version you have: VAM_UNLOCK_KL15OFF_AFTER_PIA_AUTO_LOCK CLI_DEFAULT_UNLOCK_AFTER_END_OF_DRIVING CLM_UNLOCK_KL15OFF_AFTER_PIA_AUTO_LOCK 2. Some codes were already enabled that I didn't expect to be based on F56 forums, like Turn off MMI when door is opened and A/C remembers last setting. True, though sometimes it will depend on region and model year. For example, my stock F55 did not turn off the radio when the doors opened, but most 2017s and all 2018s seem to have this standard. 3. Some codes don't seem to have worked: Enable Turn Signals in HUD, Enable Speech Input for SMS, Display tire temp. As mentioned before, turn signals is a dead end, Speech input as well though Siri works better anyway, Display tire temp is in HU_NBT and change "RDC_SAFETY" to "aktiv" I also can't seem to find the code for folding the mirrors when I press the comfort access button on the door handle to lock the car. This one is tricky. There's 5 parameters to change, all in BDC and you need comfort access equipped: KOMFORTSCHLIESSUNG_FB => aktiv KOMFORT_SCHLIESSEN => change Werte value to "00" ASP_BEIKLAPPEN => aktiv ASP_BEIKLAPPEN_BEI_KOMFORTSCHLIESSEN =aktiv ASP_AUSKLAPPEN_NACH_KOMFORTSCHLIESSEN = aktiv If done correctly, windows and mirrors will close upon locking via the keyfob or comfort access button and will open on unlocking. For the mirrors to fold in, I find you have to hold the CA button for about a second, but they'll fold instantly via the keyfob But here's what I did get working: Disable Welcome Gongs Turn off seatbelt reminder chimes Close windows, sunroof, and mirror from keyfob Illuminate door handle LEDs on reverse Remove legal disclaimers And a few I haven't tested yet, but was able to code: Change mirror to unfold at 12mph Set cell phone ringtone as primary Turn on brake force flashing with hard brake <= Test this by braking hard at speed (doesn't need to be fast - 30 mph will do). I found on mine it would set off an lighting malfunction error on hard braking all the time if set to flash. Video in motion Enable video from usb Enable saving video files to NBT hard drive Disable Office speed function lockout Enable full text lines while driving Enable timestamp for call log Remember driving mode on shut off (car remembers SPORT/GREEN mode) In BDC: FESALLOWMODE7LASTFUNCTION aktiv FESALLOWMODE4LASTFUNCTION aktiv FESLASTFUNCTIONINTERVAL werte=FF Allow fog lights with high beams: In BDC: NSW_AUS_BEI_FL nicht_aktiv Tail lights on with DRL: In BDC: MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_1_H_L_OUTPUT sl_l MAPPING_TAGFAHRL_1_H_R_OUTPUT sl_r Change delay in boot opening after kick to open for Comfort Access F54s and F60s: in BDC: CLM_TIMEOUT_HK_SMO wert_01 Value is in HEX by 0.1 secs Disable trunk button if doors are locked (Comfort access still works the same): In BDC: VAM_DISABLE_OPEN_LID_AT_NOT_UNLOCKED aktiv Change Startup animation on MINI Connected headunits: In HU_NBT/HU_NBT2: STARTUP_EMBLEM These are the options for touchscreen units but the non-touch displays are similar: variant_00=BMW Connected Services; variant_01= BMW ///M; variant_02=Alpina; variant_03=BMW i; variant_04=MINI; variant_05=BMW Connected Drive; variant_06=BMW Connected Drive Gold; variant_07=John Cooper Works; variant_08=New MINI Logo; variant_09=BMW ///M Alt (less animation) Change max radio volume on start: In NBT: VOL_MAX_ON werte=32 Value in HEX and expressed in percentages (00=0%, 19=25%, 32=50%, 64=100%) Change system sounds in NBT: SOUND_SIGNAL_SET ==> BMW, BMW i, Rolls Royce, MINI |

Hard to believe it! |

Nope. Tire Temps does not seem to exist on F60. Coded just as you say, twice, and although it worked on my F56, it hasn't worked on my F60.
