Instructions on how to update a module with WinKFP.
1 Start WinKFP and select F3:- Update ZUSB
2 Select ECU type and the ECU will appear along with a list of part numbers.
3 Select ok and the main menu will re-appear
4 Select VIN and enter the cars VIN no. and select OK.
5 Select Done
6 Select Prog. ZB_update, you will be asked to confirm the update, Winkfp wil state the number of times the module can be re-programmed.
7 Sit back and wait.
I did my TCU with my cars VIN no. and it took 35 mins over the OBD port.
Does anyone know why there is a limit on the number of times a module can be programmed?
Don`t know but this comes up progman and ISTA/p.
Why did you try to reprogram it? Did you have to do anything else (coding or error clearing for example) after to get everything working after?

Just saw your other post on another thread. So do I think I should do the same or does it really matter that the VIN is not assigned?

TCU was replaced by BMW a while back but it looks like they didn`t programme the vin no. to the module, just wanted to make sure everything was coded correctly. I did get some errors come up but they cleared after I shut down and restarted the car, I will need to do a diagnosis with DIS at some point to clear the error memories.
Where does it get the updated 'files' to update your ecu? What can be updated with this? Sorry to ask the dumb questions.
If I need to flash my E82 DSC, what ECU should I choose?
From where I can find the correct model? DSC60, DSC89, DSC87, etc
Thanks,
Use INPA. Choose your car, then pick "functional jobs" and then "Read UIF". Write down the line with the DCS. It should look like this:
Now close INPA and Open WinKFP. Assuming you've copied all the DATEN files over as per the guide in this post, you should be able to select "Comfort Mode" then "Enter ZUSB". Enter the ZB Number and it will find the module associated with that number. Write the name of the module down (it is DSC90 for the ZB number above), hit cancel, and then select "Update ZUSB". Now select the ECU you wrote down from the first list then hit OK. Next select "Enter VIN" and enter your VIN (don't mess this up. It's bad news. Ask me how I know). Now select "Done" then select "Prog. ZB-Update". Now it'll read your current ZB and tell you what it needs to be updated to. If they are the same, then don't bother, otherwise, hit OK and follow the prompts.Code:----------------------------------------------------- ADR Gen. name JobStatus ZB No. VIN No. Date [other stuff] 29 DSC OKAY 6775387 KS32642 28.04.2006 [other stuff]
Does winkfp tell you the ecu family (DSC60, DSC89,etc)? If the UIF is messed up, you should still be able to flash it if you know the latest revision for the ecu family. This info is in the files in the "data" directory (i.e. c:\ec-apps\nfs\data\dsc90\dsc90.hwh, dsc90.dat, and dsc90.his). I'm not really sure how to parse these files yet, but you can probably use them to figure out the missing numbers from your ZB-NBR.
The UIF is OK.
My DSC data is like this:
BM number 6787837
dsc81 hw 01829h0
phiscal hw 6785575
The WinKFP tell abot can not find data in ''konv.tmp'' into one file that I forget, now.
I also search through all DATA to find anything related to 6787837 and I find nothing.

Not sure about that. I know that I messed up my MRS with the wrong VIN in WinKFP (apparently the MRS stores the whole VIN and not just the last 7) and it refused to work at all (and set codes for every sensor in the MRS system) and subsequent tries with WinKFP with the right number failed (trying to write the same ZB--might have worked if I "downgraded" the ZB but I didn't try). I fixed it with SSS Progman by following the "Replace ECU" menus.
I've been poking around with Tool32 and that might be the best non-SSS way to change VINs.
Hay guys i have a 2010 bmw 750i f01 model. and i have replace three modules, need help how to change vin number on them. thanks
take it to your dealer, that car should still be under warranty, no?
I tried and the warranty is void do to salvage title.
Does anyone know where i can find WinKFP showed in the screenshot? 5.1 in english
It's in the INPA 5.0 package. The installer included the executable only though. You have to get the appropriate data files from one of the progman releases (the later the better).
Thanks for the screenshots, curious to know. I cannot find ecu update modules for DME on 2007 E90.
When it says "enter vin" - do you enter the full vin (17 digits)?
