## Description

Review: Great value and functionality - Great for older Bimmers. Amazing value for the price. I was able to reprogram a locked MRSZ4 module after it gave me an error 240. My E39 had a DSC error and airbag light. DSC required the steering angle sensor adaptation which is done in LEW module which the tool performed with no issue and the MRS needed a clean BIN file which I was able to upload into the unit and adjust it's programming. No lights on the dash now. Tool is super easy to install if you follow the installation guide which you can find on the CD. I am very happy with it.
Review: Must have for E series - This tool has a lot of capabilities for older bmws. The scanner can with the disk, install wasn’t too bad. Got drivers for windows 10. Pins 7&8 were already soldered which is nice. Overall worked great

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this device program key fob for remote open/close of E46 convertible top?**
A: Yes, I did it with my 2004 330ci. The range on my key isn't very far so it seems to lose connection at times while opening (you have to hold unlock for the duration of opening). Very cool feature!

**Q: Can it program e36 keys?**
A: I dont think so, i use it with E46 and i can program keys,

**Q: Loaded the drivers, and got the message,"Hardware faulty" What next?**
A: If you get Hardware Faulty when starting the BMW Scanner 1.4 then just plug it in the vehicle and start the app again. It should go away.

**Q: would it scan CVM controller fir convertable top of e46 2003?**
A: i guess so

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for E series
*by E***K on December 12, 2025*

This tool has a lot of capabilities for older bmws. The scanner can with the disk, install wasn’t too bad. Got drivers for windows 10. Pins 7&8 were already soldered which is nice. Overall worked great

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ E46 M3 & Windows 10 Compatible (with a little effort)
*by T***S on February 12, 2018*

Worked perfectly. Used on a 2003 BMW M3 to program LCM. To have it properly read all vehicle modules you must solder ports 1&2 and 7&8 (clearly labeled on the inside of the adaptor). I am terrible at soldering, but was able to do it and the unit read all modules easily. Operating system: Windows 10 (with a little effort). This video shows everything you need to do to get windows 10 to work with the drivers for the device: https://youtu.be/bZLhlfDmmog Software: I did download drivers separately, but the device already comes with a CD that contains them (I was mainly just following the above tutorial step by step). The BMW Scanner software that comes with this (otherwise known as PA Soft 1.4) works flawlessly and I was able to both read error codes and program (with the above physical modifications to the device, otherwise it will only read the engine DME. I believe this is only needed on M3s though). Overall, for 20 bucks versus the cost of PA Soft w/ scanner ($650), this unit is WELL worth it if you’re willing to fiddle with it.
