Mss54/hp dme swap modifications

[George Hill]

Can the MSS54 DME be connected straight to the diff for vehicle speed sensor input?

Looking at the ETK I wasn't sure if the cluster was a pass through or if it did some change to the output? I ask as I have an E36 without a cluster (ETK shows similar as the E30) and am trying to decide if I should delete VSS all together or if I can wire it to the diff and then convert to a 9 pulse signal like the E30 shares.

Thanks, George

Should work. Try it and see!

Wanting to verify this is the correct INPA cable. I see the FT232R but it doesn't ref the 232RL so I wasn't sure it's compatible.

Removed base maps for DTCs so that one could just zero out the DTCs without having to edit the xdf for your version/country. Youtube video to come....

Updated today with value to turn of "Eductor" pump (secondary fuel pump used in E46 to transfer fuel from one side to the other.

Also updated with method to turn off Post Cat 02 Sensor and ODB reporting program. You can just disable the DTCs but I'd rather not have the code run at all.

Damn.....I was looking for this for over 2 years....

!!UPDATE!!

12/6/18 Fixed K_LDP_CFG address from h4126 to h4124 (Tank Leak Diagnosis off)
MSS54HP - v1801, v2001, v2501, v2701.xdf

Sorry guys. Sometimes I get cross eyed looking at the hex. Also...I was blessed with all the xdfs but can't share yet.

v2801 Basic uploaded here created from TAPs XDFofA2L but he has fallen off the map. Keep in mind his program just searched with a few known items and made assumptions so some locations may be wrong, but there is alot correct.

Change .pdf to .xdf

it's way OT, but if you want to use the E30 fuel level senders with the E46 cluster, you can use an op amp circuit to adjust the signal. The speedo can be programmed to work with the E30's 9-tooth speed signal (using the original speedo PCB as a conditioner). I have a cluster about 90% done, but waiting for my motor to be in the car before I finish.

I've been trying to shove the e46 fuel level senders into my gas tank but its a tight fit. I also pulled the e46 abs computer and 1 abs sensor. Might just have to try wiring it up.

^That is a different ballgame. I believe some info is transmitted via CAN, but not wholly related to the MSS54/HP programming. Check M3 Forums for R270 coding if that is what you have.

[kgiynmgs]

Anyone have experience with reprogramming the e46 m3 cluster? I'm trying to use the one that came with my donor car and have everything but the fuel gauge and speedometer working.

[R3Z3N]

^ Not sure.

Updated with the XDF DTCs and Coding plain text wrapped in PHP tags so that it can be copy/pasted and saved as an XDF should my server be lost.

Is the AIF section on your DME empty?
