DSC / ABS lights on INPA code help - M specific?

Post by abar121 » Sat May 20, 2017 4:20 pm

Hi Chaps,
Both these lights come on after a few miles now on m M. I'm getting the following from INPA, but am having trouble decoding them.

Variant: LWS5_1B 1 Error in error memory Error registration 1 : 0x0009: keine ASC2-Botschaft <<<<!!! Error accurances: 0
sporadischer Fehler Error code: 09 00 81


Can anyone help? There are a few old errors too, I'll clear them and get a fresh reading.
Cheers.

Hmm, so I reset all of the errors in INPA and took the car for a spin. After a few miles, the ABS / DSC lights came on with a beep.

Got home, can't see any errors in INPA in the Error or info reports. Puzzled.

Hi abar21.
Those INPA codes don't make any sense.
This may be the time to get it scanned by an alternative machine.
Where are you in the UK?

Hi Andy,
I'm either in Milton Keynes or East London. Not close to you I'm afraid.

Yeah, I can paste the dumps in if that helps, but I'm not getting anything useful out of INPA. I used to have DIS running, although it was a ball ache. Might have to try it again.

I have a feeling because it's an M model with the MSS70 and different DSC, INPA won't read the DSC errors properly.

Chaps,
I put this on the Z4 E85 problems page, but it could be M Specific. Appreciate someone could help, cheers.

Yeah, or one of the pressure sensors, could even be a steering sensor or the ABS unit.

I need some help with the error codes to tell.

Abs pump failed.

Common problem. You might find it is intermittent fir a while. New pump is expensive. Ecu testing will rebuild yours for £200ish

Thanks, I'll give INPA as an E46 a go.

Yeah, I was thinking if it is the pump, to send it to Ecu testing. Need to establish what it is first though.

No luck with the E46 selection. Although I'm getting some data from INPA, I'm thinking my modded ODB2 lead (VAG-COM with pins 7/8 soldered), might be causing an issue? All the live data works and most of the functions though.

Cheers.

INPA (not "old INPA", in case you have one of the all-in-one CDs) worked for me, with cable in K mode. No need to select other models... should work just fine on the M.

Hope it's not the dreaded "pumpenmotor defekt", but at least if you crack the INPA issues you can get an ECU T refurb and do the factory re-bleed yourself.

Thanks. Yeah, if I can get the error code and it is the pump, I'll do it myself. I'm using INPA version 5.0.6 from a VirtualBox installation, if that helps. I'm also based in the big smoke., East London, where abouts are you? Do you still have the software installed?

Thanks ,

Alan.
