Thank you so much for the educational video on setup ICOM properly. You’re a blessing to the Bimmer community unlike other RUclipsrs who are looking to scam subscribers. Much appreciated 🙏
Hi Ovidiu, I need your help. I have BMW ISTA D and for some reason I am not able to write information to the DME. I tried to change the injector values after installing a new injector and I was not able to. The error message I get is “NOT OK” against cylinder 2. I tried registering a battery and it was not possible but I can read and reset fault codes without any errors. Very strange but with your expertise, I am confident you may be able to help me. How can I get in touch with you?
Depending on what you're using it ! Enet cable is good for coding with Esys, but ICOM will do programming with ISTA, everything on E series! Voltage reading and much more!
I did everything according to the guide and the wifi connection works. If there is a problem, if I want to code the e series via e-sys, is there another way to connect the icom head. I have an original head, not a clone
Thank you very much to share your tip with the phone connection! When I'm out, I always bring the cable with me but now I know I can use it wireless even outside! I have a little question about the leds on the icom, on mine the "com" light is red when I connect to a car... Sometimes it flashes red/orange but never goes green (or may be I saw it green a couple of seconds on a E series car one time and that's it). My second question is, when I use icom with a F or G series, the reading is fast, but when it's a E series car, it is much slower to read and find the VIN... Is it normal? When I use K-dcan cable, it is as fast as the F and G series... Thank you!
Do you have the original ICOM ? The E series is a little bit slower because the communication protocol is at lower speeds! Also, on E series, if a module is missing/ not responding, it will take a longer time to scan the car
@MOvidiu Thank you for your reply. Yes I have original icom. On the same car I tested icom and k-dcan cable, and the icom is much slower (it was on a E60 and that car had no errors, all ECU'S green on the tree). Except of that and the "COM" led in red, my icom works fine 🤷🏻
Hi, great video and all the contect! Keep up the good work! :) One queation: Is it posible to connect ISTA on laptop directly with K+DCAN OBD to USB cable? I'm getting errors, trying to find good tutorial how to manage ISTA to work. Thank you!
You can , there is an app that transforms your laptop wifi in a modem , bit will message up other enet settings on your laptop and if you use different interfaces your screwed
hello, thanks for the explanation, my head does not connect is original, the WLAN light remains steady, but the system plug always flashes until the WLAN turns solid red, I can not in any way make the connection, what could it be, I tried both with modem and with iPhone but nothing
I hope you can help me. The official BMW service center in my town told me that it isn't possible to install (upgrade) the original rear camera on my G30. I need your confirmation of that.
Hello! Yes, you can retrofit rear view camera on your G30 even if the vehicle didn't have that from the factory. Official, it can not be done, that's why they told you No!
@@MOvidiu So I have to bring my car to someone more competent/ you to do all those codes, wires etc. Btw are those cameras original BMW parts or Chinese? Thanks 👍 my neighbor. I'm from Slovakia
@@MOvidiu cool! When I bought mine, I had the choice with or without Wi-Fi and I chose without, I will be trying this tomorrow! Can’t you stick like a dongle in the interface so you don’t have to use the phone?

Super tutorial 👍👍👍
Stay connected
More videos please 👍👍👍
Woow great job
Can you make video on esys and how to update retrofitted ECU s when I level is not known and hwel is red not black in the ECU , mostly on F series
❤❤❤
thank you very much for the good content you have in your videos, but I would like to know how can I get the ISTA program and bmw ICOM
Ista I don't know, but ICOM from any BMW dealership ( if you want the original one )
Hello Can you make a video on how to download Ista from the web from the beginning until connecting to the car, please?
Ovi, thanks pal for your tutorial. Question: what battery maintainer do you use and what would you recommend. I have x5 e70 n63 engine
Hello, I will recommend something that has at least 60A
Bravo za upustvo
What’s the difference between using ista and esys with icom vs plain enet to obd2 cable? Thanks!

Welcome!

You can code using wifi, be aware of vehicle battery voltage, and your laptop/tablet battery! But to do programming you need cable !

Can you recommend a power supply to use when programming modules to keep the voltage at 13.5. I was planning on using something like the PowerMax PM4.

Thank you!
Yes you can!
@MOvidiu great to hear that. I'l give another try to connect it. :)
thhank you ;) why we cant connect directly to the icom next without phone or a router ? when we use only 1 com next
You can , there is an app that transforms your laptop wifi in a modem , bit will message up other enet settings on your laptop and if you use different interfaces your screwed
@@MOvidiu what i mean is why we cant connect directly to the wifi of the icom. Not about a solution to emilate a royter or something else ;)
@@fraizer2600icom does not have the ability of creating its own WiFi network/hotspot, it can connect to other networks
hello, thanks for the explanation, my head does not connect is original, the WLAN light remains steady, but the system plug always flashes until the WLAN turns solid red, I can not in any way make the connection, what could it be, I tried both with modem and with iPhone but nothing
Are you sure it is original ? From where did you get it ?
@@MOvidiu yes original, It comes from a BMW workshop, It had an enet connection problem and they gave It to me
@@MOvidiu firmware 04.23.10
If you did al the settings correctly and is not working maybe the ICOM is damaged!
wired ftw 😂😂
Can you connect the ICOM to your home WiFi, so you keep both the internet and the ICOM-connectivity on your diagnostic laptop at the same time?
Yes, you can connect it to whatever wifi network you want as long the network settings are accepted by ICOM
From where do you buy the case for hp
Sometimes, you can find one on eBay
Здравствуйте. Какой планшет используется?
Do you have a link for a reliable cloned icom with wifi?
Hello! Unfortunately, I don't have !
I hope you can help me. The official BMW service center in my town told me that it isn't possible to install (upgrade) the original rear camera on my G30. I need your confirmation of that.

Salut Ovidiu , cum poti distinge un icom original de unul fake ?pe un f10 s-ar putea monta un id4 (modul + screen) multumesc si spor ❤
Salut, pai in primul rand calitatea , pana si izolatia cablului e difetita ! Dar daca nu ai vazut originalul e mai greu sa ti dai seama
what hp model is this?
Do you like it ?! It is an HP x2 G8
Where is the link to the icom?
Unfortunately there is none! you can buy it from a BMW dealership
they are again on sale on some legit sites
Probably! But before ordering, ask at your local dealership for price !
I presume you have to have the icom version with Wi-Fi .
The cloned one , yes ! the original ICOM is standard with WiFi
@@MOvidiu cool! When I bought mine, I had the choice with or without Wi-Fi and I chose without, I will be trying this tomorrow! Can’t you stick like a dongle in the interface so you don’t have to use the phone?
