Hi, i am having current problems with my EWS. the car didnt come with a key when i got it, is there any way to disable the EWS/Immobiliser.

I am pretty sure it is a EWS2 (black box with white connector) and a BOSCH DME Ver. 1 247 851

Thanks alot, could really use some help with this one. i am new to BMW's

What's the production date of your car? Where did you get your current key? Did that key ever work in your car?

hi, its a 04 1995 3181

The story is i got it from a dealership for real cheap but the catch was that it came without a key... so i never had one to begin with. I have found a way to access the ignition without a key, just need to bypass the EWS to get spark/fuel/turnover

thanks

Instead of going through all the BS you're going through, just call the dealer , they can get you an already cut key with the proper chip in it for around $90.
