The schematics of the official BMW cable can be found below in the attachments and how to solder your cable can be seen in the photos directly below (thanks to Sean ).Īn even more comprehensive DIY for the ENET cable can now also be found in the attachments: To build your own cable, you will need the following: You will need to solder a bit but it's nothing too serious if you follow the instructions to the letter. Cost for this would probably range anywhere between 10 to 20 bucks. The other way is to build a cable yourself. Usually, after he receives payment, he can have the cable ship the next day and arrive with you only two days later (that's for the 48 contiguous states, Alaska and Hawaii might take a few days longer due to the distance (cost stays the same due to it being shipped flat rate with USPS)). > You can also buy a cable from ImSW1, a fellow coder and he's also the one from who I, indirectly, received my own cable. I wouldn't recommend other sites, although they may work, problem is that they have not been confirmed working yet. If you are not interested in building one and want to spend a little bit more money to get a working cable, then this is a site that has been confirmed working by some of our F10 friends. You can buy a complete cable, or you can simply build one. There are basically two ways to get the ENET cable.

Also, it's advisable to do the browsing in the code offline and only do the coding while being in your car (more about this later on). Now, you could go overboard and get a power supply cable for constant supply to your car but if you minimize your coding sessions to 30 minutes and have your car running for at least 15 minutes in between, it should go a long way. A laptop (a PC would work too but it wouldn't be comfortable in most cases lol) E-Sys program, datafiles, token and PIN For the E-series, please see this thread: and in particular, this post: The E-series needs to communicate with a CAN network, where as we are talking across a TCP/IP enabled network with the F-series. The E-series us INPA and NCS Expert to do their coding. I'm sorry but I just received word the E-series work in a complete different way that the F-series. This DIY is intended for F-series BMW's alone. If you're interested in coding yourself, read on Well I received my cable today and did some coding already.
