Tips to Read BMW CAS3 IMMO FLASH with Yanhua Digimaster 3
Have BMW CAS3 immo eeprom flash to read, Xhorse VVDI Prog is the best, Yanhua Digimaster 3 (D3) is okay too, but need more skills.
Part 1. Use Yanhua Digimaster 3 to read BMW CAS3 eeprom / flash
Tips:
1). Do not extend the black and white feeder, cut it short and connect it directly
2). In addition to the feeder line and GND, all other lines must have a voltage output between 4V and 5V.
The following images shows how to weld the cables, and you can see that I connected the CAS BDM adapter. Then in the Digimaster 3 machine, I selected the CPU program, then CAS3, and then read it until it succeeded.
Part 2. Use Xhorse VVDI Prog to read BMW CAS3 eeprom / flash
Read eeprom & flash CAS3 0L01Y BMW for example.
0L01Y mask is an ECU connected to VVDI Pro by MC9S12 reflash cable.
You have to solder the cables first to the specific pins on the board.
And you have a diagram here, okay I’ve got everything connected correctly.
So I can start reading the EEPROM and flash.
- Firstly, we’re gonna read EEPROM.
so when everything is ready you just have to click “Read” and wait a little for initialization and reading the chip.
Okay and it’s already done as you see operation success.
Okay, I can save that to a file to the bin file.
- Now we are gonna read the flash.
The same procedure, but I have to read in the red branch you have choose the flashing and just press the red button. I have to wait one minute, sometimes less than one minute it depends on the temperature. Just read it out and you will be able to save it in the file.
Okay, operation success.
So, If you want to write any dumps, you can just do it by clicking the right button at the top of VVDI Pro programmer, so it’s easy actually.
The most difficult part is to solder the pins correctly but you have the diagram, so it’s not a big problem.
Okay, this is everything what I want to show you, VVDI Prog programmer is amazing as you can see it can read Flash and EEPROM in a minute.
Enjoy!

Tips to Write BMW EWS3 Key with Autel IM608 XP400 Pro
Problem:
Has anyone tried writing a key to an EWS3 module using the autel xp400 pro? I bought the eeprom expansion pack specifically to bench EWS modules but the adapter provided for the 0D46J doesn’t fit due to the lack of clearance with a relay on the board. I could only read/write the bin for the chip itself. It wouldn’t let me write the key to it. Am I missing something here?
Solution:
Save a new bin, then upload to perform the write via dump and finally succeed.
Check which adapter to use to read EWS3?
Ak90 or xprog is the way to go on these.
Experience with SDConnect C4 WIS EPC activation by TV
I have mb Sdconnect C4 to activate code for WIS, EPC, xentry and dts Monaco, and then contacted obdii365.com engineer and they said ” You can send the activation id to calculate the password, or send it to teamviewer to activate the software for you remotely”, then they connected with teamviewer for Activation code for WIS and EPC, but for some reason hardware id changed (Lan Id is different. Probably because WiFi is on) and then Xentry doesn’t start.
obdii365.com engineer replied me:
Follow the steps below;
- Delete the lic-key2.dat file under the C drive directory
(C:/Programdata/LicDir)
- The activation code of xentry is still deactivated by the one given to you before, and then a new lic-key2.dat will be generated under the C drive directory (C:/Programdata/LicDir)
- Copy a copy of lic-key2.dat, change the copy to a lic-key2.x4711 file, and then set the file attribute to read-only
Update!
Everything ok now. Xentry,Wis and Epc starts. Know i have to test the Sd connect C4 to a car.
Many thanks for their professional after-sale service.
2017 GM Volt Airbag Reset by VXDIAG GDS2
Have one used 2017 GM Volt with yellow airbag light to reset, so I just picked up a VXDIAG VCX NANO GM (GDS2) scanner. I have no sensor error. I just plan to change airbags, seatbelts and a new control module.
New Restraint Module is on and programmed. But I did not reconnect the new airbags for the moment so I have some DTC in memory regarding the missing airbags. These code should go away once the new airbags are in place.
Other than that, I have this strange codes P0E65, P0D4F, P0D40 and P0CCF. The Charge port door in not connected so this is why I have the P0CCF. But the other 3 DTC are confusing and the car refuses to MOVE for the moment.

How to use AUTEL MK808 IMMO Service?
An immobilizer is an anti-theft mechanism that prevents an automobile’s engine from starting if the correct ignition key is not used or other device is present. This device prevents thieves from starting the vehicle by a method known as hot wiring. Most new vehicles have an immobilizer as standard equipment. An important advantage of this system is that it doesn’t require the vehicle owner to activate it; it operates automatically. An immobilizer is a more effective anti-theft protection than an audible alarm alone; many auto insurance companies offer lower rates for vehicles that are equipped with them.
As an anti-theft device, an immobilizer disables one of the systems needed to start a vehicle’s engine, usually the fuel supply or the ignition. This is accomplished by radio frequency identification between a transponder in the ignition key and a device called a radio frequency reader in the steering column. When the key is placed in the ignition, the transponder sends a signal with a unique identification code to the reader that relays it to a receiver in the vehicle’s computer control module. If the code is correct, the computer allows the fuel supply and ignition systems to operate and start the vehicle. If the code is incorrect or absent, the computer disables the system, and the vehicle will be unable to start until the correct key is placed in the ignition.
The IMMO service of MK808 enables you to disable the lost vehicle keys and program are placement key fob. One or more replacement key fob can be programmed, depending on your needs.
To program the replacement key fob(s)
- Tap “IMMO KEYS” after entering the “Service” function from the MaxiCOM Job Menu.
- Tap “Automatic Selection” or “Manual Selection” to acquire vehicle VIN information and tap Yes to confirm.
- Tap “Erase/Program all key fobs” in the IMMO function list after it is displayed, the list may vary for different vehicles being tested.
NOTE
1) To complete key fob programming, you need to acquire the Security Code, which can be acquired through the Security Code Read function in hot functions.
2) Before programming, please check and erase the fault codes.
Enjoy!
