Awesome tutorial straight to the point.
Thanks, Juan
Awesome, this is exactly what I was looking for. Beautifully videoed. Thank you
Thanks, mate! Glad it helped.
Same! I accidentally turned off the lights thing that was preconfigured when i bought the car. The cool thing is that you don't need an alarm to make it work
thanks for your video
Thanks for this video, excellent!!
Thanks for the feedback Aguatys
Really nice great work!! thanks :)
Thanks!!! :)
Thnx man great video ,just install my alarm on my BMW Z4 2003 evrything work fine save a trip to my stealer to program the alarm
+Marcel Galarneau Thanks!!

graciassssss!!!!!
Hats off, thank you!
Thanks Peter !
Liked it thanxs
Awesome
thanks for your video , locking condition at X km/h cannot be set
i have the same problem as you? sameone have any solution?
SUBSCRIBED
do you know if i can leave the alarm (DWA) and dwa sensors disabled (unticked ) and still have the bipping sound and hazard light flashing (acoustic and optical) when i lock and unlock the car ? I have tried but it seams that as lond as dwa is unticked , i wont get acoustic and/or optical when arming and disarming (locking and unlocking the car )
Hello I have a question. How to enable the E39 to rings were like front turn signals?
what kind of bulbs do you have in headlights?
CN someone give me info how i can do this coding for e36 fabric alarms .. before few weeks i saw video for it but now I can’t find it.
Again the guys runs it from a laptop and enables sound , windows up etc..
Hi can you install pa software on inpa installed Windows? Thanks
If you have aftermarket is this work?
Hey guys, I got 2003 325xi and installed the siren, tilt and motion sensor, and programed it using PA Soft 1.4 but I cant get my low beams or high beams to flash. any suggestion
why does the alarm system go on on my e39 1998 when I code the turn signals (optical lock on and off)
Machallah 🤙
lo e probado y cuando selecciono alguna opciones i le doi a white me sale un error por que podría ser ?=
How do I deactivate the anti-theft system on my 2008 535i mpower? It shut my engine down!
I can do that with the icarly scanner?
Thanks Ryan! so for DRL, only the low beam work instead of the high beam...can't figure out why? your input again is much appreciated. cheers
Hi Zack! For the DRL is the high beam that lights up. Did you had a chance to look at this video? czcams.com/video/6jgUmho8hGk/video.html
I've watched all your video mate. I'm coding with PA Soft, I have EU/US1/US2/Danish DRL options and only US1 works which is the Low beam...just nearly about to smash the comp :)
HI Zack! I never managed to code DRL with PA Soft. Can you let me know how you did it?
Hi Ryan, I just checked the box for DRL US1...that's it, easy mate. However, EU/US2/Danish DRL has no function at all
I liked your angel eyes. Did you buy just the "eye" and adapt or is the entire light headlight? How do I get the software?
Hi. They did come with the car. I bet the previous owner bought them from eBay. It is just the rings. They’re not so bright as they look. Normally the software came with the cable. :)
Thanks, man! I bought the cable with some software there and I'm looking forward to make some tests when the cable arrived.
Hey great videos.....do my e46 needs to be equipped with alarm siren in order to make the 'beep' sounds?
Also can you code the "flash to pass" light to be turn on?
+The401Kidd Thanks! I think so, for beep sound yes, you will need the alarm siren, but you can code just visual lights even without the alarm. I don't know if you can code the 'flash to pass' on the E46, maybe someone can help on this.
+Ryaniwk thanks man
what version of window are you using? i heard that that scanner is just comparable with XP..
thanks
That's Windows 7. I can say it works on both Windows 7 and XP (it might work on 8 and 10, but I never tried)
Can you tell me what year of vehicles are what kind of vehicles of the BMW Series is compatible to this scanner I mean like from 1999 through whatever do you know anything about that I just got done rescanning my BMW 04 and I like it
Hi. I’ve tested my BMW scanner on a 2000, 2001 and 2004 E46. 4 and 6 cylinder, petrol. It should work on any E46
how do you code xenon flash to pass?
Hi Ryan, on my 2003 530i I tried to get the high beam to flash when lock/unlocking the car but only the hazard light blink, any idea why? Thanks mate
Hi Zack. I dont think is possible to flash the high beams when lock or unlocking the car… They can flash when the alarm goes off though
Através de codificação Bimmercode consigo ativar a luz de alarme (do retrovisor interior) mesmo sem ter alarme?
Nunca testei o Bimmercode :(
Hey ryan do i need the alarm for the optical options only
Hey mate. I don’t think you do just for optical ;)
hello I no you did this video3 yrs ago but I just like to no what is best PA SOFT 1.4 OR INPA?
Depends on what you need to do and your experience on coding. PA SOFT its less complicated to work with but it more limited on what you can do with it.
Thank you so much for the instructional video. I do have a question for you though. I made all the changes just like yourself, but every time I change the settings, they don’t stick. Do you know what could be causing this?
Thanks for the feedback!
What are you trying to code?
Well, I coded my daytime running lights to OFF, my doors to lock at 12km, my flashers to light up at locking/unlocking w/ beep, and my windows to roll up with the key fob. Well, throughout the night things started working like my flashers at locking and my doors lock at 12km, but I still have my daytime running lights and no beep. I think my locking control module might be shot because sometimes my key fob will work and sometimes it won’t. I don’t see the daytime running lights being a part of the Central locking control module. Or am I wrong?
My other question is, can I code a new/used Control Module GM5 with this software? Sorry to hit you with a book.
DRLS are controlled by the light module. I have a video showing that ;)
The beeping and flashing lights when locking / unlocking, something my car don’t beep as well, I never figured it out why
Sorry, I never tried that. I know you can code a new light module, but again, I never tried, sorry 😐
Good video but one thing I don't like about the BMW remote is that you have to be close to the car to make it work unlike modern cars where you can be 30-40 feet away.
Thanks Raffaele. I’d say that depends on the key battery. Also, if you put the key next to your head when pressing the buttons, the range will extend by quite a lot hehhehe I do it every time on my e46
@@Ryaniwk With both of my key fobs it works within 10 feet.
How do you make beep sounds when locking doors with keyfob ?
Optical open and close doors must ben in ON
how did you get the oem halogen headlights to auto level?
Hi. Thats not auto levelling, what it does is just checking level motors
how did you get your halogen headlights to auto-level?
They don’t auto level. They do a level test when I start the car :)
Could you tell me what adapter should I buy to perform these changes? BMW 328i e46 2000 6cc.
Hi. You will need to buy a 20 Pin to 16 Pin obd2 adapter. Check first under the bonnet if you have a 20 pin connector

Ryaniwk thank you, i’ll check it out 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Ryan,
i have a 2003 e46 and i cant find the 20 pin connector under the bonnet. also, can i code the indicators as drl's using this software? if yes, could you please give me a link to the software?
thanks
Hi Aron,
In your 2003 E46 the connector is under the dash, on drivers side. It doesn’t uses the 20 pin connector (thats for the first e46). It uses a 16 pin connector, so you dont need any adapter.
You can’t do that with this software, you'll need NCS Expert to do that. Check this video: czcams.com/video/tK4hjN4hWbc/video.html
Hope this helps!
Ryaniwk ok then, thanks
can you link me with the cable and app ? very nice video hopping to see more of these
I don’t have a link, sorry. Please do a search for BMW Scanner V1.4.0 PA SOFT :)
Ryaniwk well at least your helping me
Dose anyone no who can program it for you?
Hi,
I have an 1999 E39 and whenever I hit the continue button, the IKE and LCM show up as not found, and it is unable to identify my car. I have read a bunch of different stuff online such as soldering pins 7 and 8 together in the scanner. My friend and I have the 20 pin adapter, and my computer definitely has the correct drivers and IS recognizing that the scanner is inserted into the USB. Have any idea what the issue could be? I've been searching forums to no avail :(
Hi Ryan! There is something wrong for sure. It should recognise your car to start with. Have you tried another scanner?
Ryaniwk yep. My friend and I used a blue tooth OBDII scanner which we plugged into the 20 pin adapter under the hood and everything worked fine with a mobile app called torque. I've tried reaching out to Xcar360 but they've been pretty useless (not responding to emails)
My e46 has a round connector and an obd port, can I just use the obd port for this? thanks in advance.
I'd say no. You need to get the adapter 20 to 16 pin. But I'll try and let you know, Pedro. Meanwhile have a look at this link: www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showpost.php?s=e764cb6dd846dda51ca6cea57f3e3017&p=7882461&postcount=10
Big thanks to QSilver7 at Bimmerfest.
Ryaniwk Hey, thanks for the reply. Already found out a couple days ago that I do need the adapter. On my car the OBD port is for reading only, no coding can be done from it. But thanks anyways!
i have k+dcan usb cable and 20pin OBDII cable that goes into kdcan. My car is 2002-08 my question is could i use only k+dcan cable under the dash? or do i need to find where to plug 20pin cable under the bonnet for PA soft to work?
+pofka10 Hi. I don’t think your car has the 20pin connector under the bonnet as it’s more recent model... :)
so you mean that the cables i have wouldn't work with PA soft right?
+pofka10 yes, you’ll need a BMW scanner cable for PA Soft. Sorry I miss read your first comment.
can you provide a link on where you purchased the scanner/software? thanks!
+Yosh Meister Hi. I bought this from eBay 2 years ago, I guess. I can’t provide you any specific seller, sorry. My advice is do a search on ebay for BMW Scanner. There’s loads of sellers selling this scanner. It should came with software as well. Read product description to find your BMW model. Hope this helps.
+Ryaniwk www.xcar360.com/bmw-scanner-1-4-0-car-diagnostic-interface-tool-code-reader.html
+Yosh Meister cheapest one I found. same thing?
+Yosh Meister that one looks alright! Please post feedback later. It will be helpful for other buyers :)
+Ryaniwk just ordered. I will reply back after I'm done coding. Thanks for the video! (and please don't delete it)
WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH. The halogen units also have adaptive lights??!!? also great video! Is it possible to just install the siren then have it flash and beep without installing the motion sensor and tilt sensor?
Thanks!! :) that's a good question! In theory it should work, but we never know. Maybe someone could answer this. Anyone?
I technically could but when I get my kit I'm going to be too lazy to just do the siren first then code just for the siren and lights lol...
Sounds like a plan! Let me know the results ;)
Ryaniwk so I got the alarm installed, (couldn't do just the siren, got discouraged and just went ahead and installed all at the same time, though I read it's possible) I then coded the alarm with pa scanner, all my functions work but when I use the panic alarm, the lights don't flash, I also made sure to check the warning lights and did lowbeams/High beams, what could be the problem?
Could it be because I accidentally checked dwa interior motion sensor rear? Though I dechecked that already..
hello, I set the alarm on my e46 328CI 99, but no sound, no flashing lights , no nothing remains the same as it was before setting it, was also disabled the option of closing the rear windows with the key does not work , the only thing that worked was safe block after accelerating to over 40 km / h . which will be the problem.
Thats strange :( How many keys do you have for the car?
same problem, did you fix it anyhow? I have 2000 BMW E46 320D.
My pasoft font work on windows 10
Can this be done if it's connected to the OBD2 connector under the dash instead?
+varstamea what year was your car made?
Ryaniwk July 2000
In that case I believe you will need to use the socket under the bonnet with the adapter.
I didn't find your email only twitter and Instagram
Is there a way to control the LED the on instrument cluster (speedometer and rpm clusters)
I have a bmw 330d 2001, but I can not do it in the US model (indicators always on), how to do it?
Hi, you can't do it with PA Soft. You will need NCS Expert do code the US Style indicators.
Ryaniwk Thanks 😉
Hi, i was wondering! I'm traing to code my e46 320d 2003 with pa soft 1.4 but it just wont cut it, im traing to code the lock and unlock to also be optical, the turn signal to flash, it says that the writing has been done, but still no changes, any suggestion?? thank you
Hi Mark, did you manage to code anything else? Or you just having problems with the alarm options?
no i did not, i think it wont code anything, do you want me to try something in particular ?
It's just to test if you are connected to the car. Although if it says 'Writing completed' it theory it should be fine... Have you checked all the options in the alarm, acoustic and visual?
yes i checked them all still nothing, if you want all shoot a video and send it to you just so you see
Sure, I'm no expert on this but I can have a look :)
is it possible to also activate the halo lights?
+bryan reyes You mean angel eyes as DRLs? I think it can't be done just with software :( Maybe somebody can help on this, I'd like to know as well...
I think for the halo lights to turn on when you unlock the car. You have to tap them into the footwell lights (inside the car) that way they turn on and off when you lock and unlock them though it'll be at the same time as the interior lights. Also to have them always running, maybe hook them up to the DRL wiring which is probably the high beams. Then I think the PA software might have DRL coding to enable on or off.
Can it go to BMW x5 E53?
In theory yes, but to be honest I never tried it on an E53
If anyone can tell me how to code with PA Soft my High beam or AEs as DRL will be very very much appreciated. Shout out to all BMW engineer :)
My car is No sound. e46 320i 2005
where do I get the scanner
Best place is eBay or Amazon Jose
How do i even know if my car has the alarm speaker?
I too want to know
I own a BMW e39 525i 1999 and it dose not have any alarm or any lights on when I used my key ... it is normal or not
+Hassan Khalil Hi Hassan. Do you have an alarm installed in you car? Does it have the red led light on the rear view mirror?
+Ryaniwk idont think that it has that red light ! ( that mean I don't have alarm system??)
+Hassan Khalil Unfortunately yes :( Although you can still code the hazards to blink when you open/close your car. A friend did that on my old 2004 E46 (without alarm) a few years ago with NCS expert. Not 100% if you can do it with PA Soft.
I have a 1999 e46 without alarm and you cand set the hazard lights to blink when you open/close the car with PA Soft.
P.A. Soft works with k-dcan cable ?
I don’t think so. You will need a BMW scanner cable for it
Ryaniwk its oke! I have been resolved with NCS/Dummy :)
No problem :)
Hey man I'm having problems installing the bmw scanner on my computer, maybe you can help me out
Sure, Luis. Let me know whats the problem
Ryaniwk so when I try to launch the scanner, a little box pops up and it says "device drivers not installed" and it had a little red box next to it
Did your scanner came with a CD?
Ryaniwk yes it did
Try install the drivers (they should be inside Drivers folder in the cd) with the scanner connected to the car, car on position 2. It should work :)
Hi guys, thanks for the video. I followed the tutorial step by step but I can't get the siren or the warning lights to go off, I know the interior sensor works because I wave my hand in the cabin and the clown nose blinks fast but I can't get my siren or warning lights to work. I already had the corners programmed to flash when I lock/ unlock the car but that's it. I'm using P.A. Soft for the coding. If you have any idea of what can be wrong I'm more than thankful!
+mleindek Thanks! Strange, it looks like there’s something wrong with the siren. Everything else works as it should.
What OS are you using? XP, Win 7 or Win 10?
7 on this video. Sometimes I use the Xp, depends on the laptop
Thanks Ryan and Great videos mate!
No problem Zack! Thanks for the feedback :)
Hi Ryan, I've given up trying to use INPA cable to code so I'm getting a new scanner for PA Soft 1.4 so I have just one question: can I use PA to code simple functions like: Blinker when lock/unlock? That's all I need
Zack Lee yes you can. Basically you want what's shown in this video. You should be fine :)
cyka blyat this is awsome!
+Tomass Kucinskas Thanks!! :)
Boa tarde garoto blz?
Não consigo acessar o carro pelo scanner bmw 1.4 ele apenas reconhece o carro com a chave na posição 1 porem ele não deixa fazer quase nada e na chave posição 2 ele da erro de leitura do carro e não reconhece mais, bmw e39 96 com adaptador 20 pinos, ja fiz o jamper do no scanner pinos 1/2 e 6/7 e nada mudou pode me ajudar?
19999179822
Oi! O carro tem que estar na posição 2 na chave. Se da erro pode ser os drivers do pc. Ou então algo de errado com o adaptador:(
Ryaniwk puts vou reinstalar tudo e ver se da certo agora, nao consigo acessar o carro na posicao 2
Ryaniwk você sabe fazer o alarme rebater os retrovisores, subir vidros, fechar o teto e apagar os farois?
can't listen to that music
That's why they invented volume controls and mute button. ;)
