AutelIM608.com is a reliable OBD2 tools supplier providing Autel IM608,Car Diagnostic Tools,Car Truck Diagnostic Tool,OBDII EOBD JOBD Scanner, ECU Chip Tunning, Auto Key Programmer,Locksmith Tool and Automotive Electrics. How to use Autel IM608 to program FEM/BDC BMW AKL, the result is writing key successfully. Note: the ISN code is just an example because as I don’t have connected the DME, I cannot read the right one but it should be the first step before access the key programming.

1.Equipment you will need to execute this procedure

2.Defining what FEM/BDC means and identifying their differences

3.Review the location and components inside the FEM/BDC module

4.Precautions before attempting to add a key with IM608

5.Step-by-step procedures on how to add a key with IM608

What you need?

Autel MaxiIM IM608 auto key programmer

BMW FEM/BDC test platform

One original BMW smart key

One new/blank smart key

What you should know?

-This is an advanced level procedure.

-Only F chassis are supported

-Check first to see if any keys have been added before via OBD

-Need to remove FEM (front Electronic module) /BDC (Body Domain Controller) module from vehicle

-Before we attempt to add a key, we need to “Jailbreak” the FEM or BDC only one time. After that you can add additional key by OBD.

-We will be using the “Smart mode” function that is a sequence of step by step guided instructions

-Adding the key can be done via Bench or OBD

Before we take out the module, disconnect the negative battery terminal that’s all you need to do. Not the positive, the negative battery terminal.

After that, you can see where the FDM is located on the right passenger side.

Pay attention to the location marked, that’s kind of embedded onto the cover, we’re going to need this later on we need to know it says connection seven connection eight, we’re gonna need to know this later to complete the connections with the test programmer.

Take a picture of the fuses, because once we take off everything we have to put it all back together and we have this we know exactly where to put it back

If it’s a FEM system, the chip will be labeled M95128

If it’s a BDC system, it’s going to be M95256

You can see the chip number using a varnish removal ointment with a fiberglass pin to clean it off, so you can get a good secure read.

Step-by-step guide to add a key with MaxiIMIM608:

Step 1: Connect all the devices according to the following wiring diagram

Note: Don’t connect Autel XP400 to the vehicle directly, otherwise it will cause the device to burn out. If damaged, you need to send it back to repair and pay for the fix cost.

Step 2: Enter IMMO function

Step 9: Then restore EEPROM data automatically

-Put the clamp on the chip

Restore the EEPROM successfully

-Install the chip back to the ECU module

-Turn the power on

Step 10: Restore coding file

Step 11: Learn key

-Before the key can be written and cleared, the password must be read out and the corresponding key position must be selected firstly

Put the working key to start coil as close as possible

Read password successfully

Step 12: Back to key learning to select [Write key]

-Put the new key close to start coil. Key frequency 315Mhz

There are four steps to learn key:

-Authenticate key info

-Write data into key

-Reset ECU

-Verify key info

Write the key successfully

Finally, put the new key close to start induction coil, press and hold the ignition for 10s.

After the learning is completed, the key can be normally used.

Fyi…
