I'm not completely new to using a pc with a USB-to-OBD plug but I've only ever managed to get to fired up correctly with my Jag and their software. In the meantime I would like to try diagnosing with computer software (INPA?) as I have done previously with my Jags. I haven't had the chance to remove the rear wheels yet and clean/check the rear sensors as the previous owner lost the locking wheel key (of course he did.) and I'm waiting on the order of a new one.

I have some general mechanical knowledge, mainly working on MGs and Jags, which leads me to suspect a wheel speed/ABS sensor somewhere being out of order (as mentioned above, cleaning the front sensors has already got rid of the type pressure light).

The thing I need help with currently is 4 yellow warning lights on the dash (ABS, Handbrake, Brake and DSC), also has the tyre pressure light (old style sensors) on, but after cleaning the front wheel sensors it has gone off. Although I have driven it a bit recently and I love it! (thinking of getting my own after finishing his.) OBD2 USB Interface for BMW INPA, ISTA+ and MHD FlasherīMW INPA cable runs with BMW’s factory INPA ( EDIABUS/ DIS/ PROGMAN/ SSS/ NCSExpert) and ISTA+ diagnostics software as well as third-party software like MHD Flasher.I've recently joined the forum to help a friend with his Z4 (early model E85, 2.0), I've been tasked with getting it back on the road after a less than careful previous owner has let it develop quite a few little faults.

This cable is intended for use with E-Series BMW’s only, for F-/G-Series cars, have a look at the BMW Ethernet Cable instead.Ĭable length is about 28cm not including the connectors on either end The BMW INPA D+KCAN USB Cable is often bought with the BMW 20 pin to 16 pin OBD2 adaptor.
