Can I use the enet cable w/ adaptor, the same used for BM3 to connect w/ Bimmercode?

You have to recode it back using the backup that is made when you code it off.

Using BimmerLink (I do have BimmerCode but I trust BimmerLink more once I purchased it...), you are able to toggle it on/off on the go.

How do you reactivate ASD using bummer code? I have a new phone now and don't have the saved bimmercode setting to revert too. Any ideas.

Just in case anyone is considering purchasing the Technic PNP bypass harness, you better hope it works, because if it doesn't they...

1. Do not stand behind their product.
2. Do not accept returns.
3. Do not return emails.
4. Won't answer your questions directly.
5. Will blame your inability to use a plug on the fact that it does not work.

Worst company, customer service, and product I have ever purchased for my car.

Oof that's not a good look for them... I purchased mine a couple of years ago and still works like a charm. Hope it will work out for you.

Meh, it's $65.

But every time it's mentioned I'm going to copy/paste my red response above.

I purchased mine around the same time as you did yours; mine had/has absolutely zero issues. Straight plug ‘n play and bye bye ASD.
Sucks that you’re having issues with the harness and with their service. Hopefully it’ll get sorted out.

I am in the camp that installed it nearly 6 years ago and had zero problems. They had two designs. The first design had improper pin outs and forced you to reassign some of the pins. The later version corrected this problem. I wonder if you got an old designed harness?

I wouldn't imagine, it has been a very long time since they made the V1.

I'll figure it out, fix it, and sell it for $25.

If you have the basic sound system (which mine has) it's enough to pull the fuse if you want to disable the ASD. If you have the upgraded sound system the ASD is integrated into that system and you can't just pull the fuse, you need an ASD delete harness or disable the ASD with coding.

That link is just compatible OBD adapters. Any of them will work (and probably others that aren't listed haven't been tested). To save any trouble, I picked up a OBDLink MX+ from Amazon.

Active Sound Design is the first "Control unit" and you can see it in the BimmerCode demo in the app.
