SUBJECT:
Updated MODIC Software C11.0 ZCS Coding

MODEL:
ALL














Situation:
A revised and expanded version of the MODIC ZCS coding Software has been developed. With the release of C11.0 MODIC Software, Version C10.0 ZCS Encoding Software has become invalid.

Program Highlights

^ New data for E38 with DSC steering angle sensor

^ Updated information for all models.

^ Only codeable control modules (on the vehicle in question) are displayed on the MODIC screen. The Central Coding Key determines which control modules are codable.

^ Video modules must be coded to the vehicle when replaced. The coding sets the Video module language which is derived from the vehicles ZCS.

^ When replacing an EWS III control module the alignment with the DME control module is automatically performed. This alignment permanently aligns the DME control module to that vehicle and can no longer be swapped into another vehicle for test purposes.

^ Central Coding Key - The E39 and the Z3 use a 37 digit instead of a 48 digit Central Coding Key. If the Central Coding Key is altered (via conversion), write the new Central Coding Key on a label. Affix the label to the appropriate vehicle Central Coding Key sticker location. Place the new label next to the old label. Cross out the old label. Label location -

E39 - In the right side of the trunk next to the fusible link
Z3 - On the bottom side of the E-Box lid

^ After replacement the following control modules require coding with C11.0. When coding is complete check the control module's fault memory and erase any faults present.
