    1997 BMW 318i DME Vin # Change Help

    Hey there everyone

    I have a 1997 BMW 318i and thanks to some awesome people I was able to replace the DME and use ews sync to get the car started. What I need help with now is to change the current vin # of the used DME to the one on the car so I'm able to do emissions. Also I have a check engine light on but all the obd 2 readers i used are getting power but are unable to read the DTC . Thank you all again for all your help it is greatly appreciated. God bless. Oh one other thing I have my 01 BMW 740i and my friend pulled my fuse trying to fix the lighter fuse he blew and I guess pulled the airbag fuse was wonder how I can reset that I've tired inpa but when I click on airbag to read it I get a error.

    To reset the airbag light you need the B800 reset tool. I'm not sure about the vin coding, you might need NCS expert.

    Use winKFP to program the VIN.
