PASoft LCM Coding v1.1

This document provides step-by-step instructions for coding a used Light Control Module (LCM) to match a vehicle's VIN number and mileage using a PASo9/BMW Scanner. The process involves hooking up the scanner, selecting the LCM unit from the menu, determining the correct algorithm based on the hardware and software revisions on the LCM sticker, entering the new mileage and last 7 digits of the VIN, and then the LCM is coded.

Coding

 a  Used  LSZ  (LCM)  Module  


with  PASo9/BMW  Scanner  
 
Overview  
Looking  to  swap  your  malfuncDoning  Light  Control  Module?    
Swapping  to  a  newer  one  with  triple-­‐blink  funcDonality?    Up  
unDl  a  certain  Dme,  you  had  to  buy  a  new  LCM  in  order  to  
support  these  capabiliDes.    If  you  were  to  buy  a  used  LCM  and  
bring  it  to  the  dealer,  they  would  refuse  to  code  it,  saying  that  
they  cannot  code  used  LCMs  and  that  it  is  impossible  to  do  so.      
   
It  is  indeed  possible  to  code  used  LCMs  with  PASo9/BMW  
Scanner.    This  guide  will  walk  you  through  step-­‐by-­‐step  on  
coding  a  used  LCM  to  match  your  vehicle’s  VIN  number  and  
mileage.    The  procedure  starts  on  the  next  slide.    
Hook  up  your  PASo9/
BMW  Scanner  cable  
and  module  into  your  
vehicle’s  OBD-­‐II  port  
and  ensure  that  the  
system  detects  the  
cable.    Launch  the  
so9ware.    Press  
ConDnue  on  the  first  
popup  you  encounter.    
   
Once  you  ConDnue,  
the  so9ware  will  run  
for  a  moment  and  
bring  up  a  report  on  
mileage,  VIN,  and  
opDons  for  your  
vehicle.  Make  note  of  
the  mileage  (km)  on  
the  IKE.  
Select  Units  from  the  menu  and  choose  LCM.  

You  will  need  to  determine  the  correct  algorithm  to  use  to  
code  your  new  LCM.  This  is  determined  by  the  hardware  and  
so9ware  revision  of  the  unit.    You  can  find  this  informaDon  
on  the  sDcker  on  top  of  the  unit.    
 
Click  on  Change  algorithm.  
Click  on  View  support  list.    

The  column  BMWTNR  is  a  list  of  part  numbers.  Match  up  the  part  number  of  your  LSZ  
the  best  you  can.    If  you  find  a  match,  then  use  the  highlighted  (should  be  in  blue)  line  
of  data  to  determine  the  algorithm  to  use.  MCU-­‐IDNR  is  the  algorithm  you  will  need  to  
select.  If  you  can’t  find  a  direct  match,  then  use  the  HW  and  SW  versions  (the  two  must  
be  idenDcal  to  what’s  on  the  unit)  to  find  the  correct  algorithm.  Click  Close  when  
finished  with  your  selecDon  and  use  the  arrows  on  the  Change  algorithm  screen  to  
select  the  correct  algorithm.    
Enter  new  mileage  values  
Click  on  Reprogramming   Write  odometer   under  New  odometer  

You  will  see  the  following…  


Write  FGSTNR  (VIN  Number)  

Enter  the  Last  7  Digits  of  your  VIN  

And  then…  
Done.
