Here’s the inpa cable link: INPA is a factory tool that BMW still uses today. Not dealer, factory. We have access to an older version that snuck out the side door years ago. It provides all the functionality you could need or ask for for this era of BMW.

Here share the problem he got trouble in and offered the corresponding solution. Problem: I received the tech 2. Thank you. But, when I connect to obd2, it says “cannot detect CANDI module, please verify module is connected”. If it helps you, the green light on the candi module is flashing (not solid). I am not sure what to do. Can you help? The solution: I think I selected the wrong engine designation (there are 3) for my truck and the tech 2 could not communicate because it was looking for a controller that was not present (which presented the error message “no candi module”). So, I think the tech 2 was OK. It was my fault in my selections. I got it to work now! by obd2tools on 2021-01-04 07:01:32 |
