How to setup the BMW E9x OEM CAN protocol

 

clip1485

1. Enable the BMW E9x (MSS60) OEM CAN Protocol in CAN Bus --> CAN settings, OEM CAN protocols.

 

clip1486

2. Navigate to DCT --> DCT control, Torque control and populate this table with as close as possible real engine torque.

Note: the E9x OEM CAN protocol uses this torque table to send out engine torques needed by the vehicle units happy.

 

 

clip1487

If you have a DCT gearbox installed, the above combination works.

 

Do not enable the DCT gearbox control if you DONT have a DCT gearbox wired, it wont work and will cause a lot of error codes in your whole vehicle

 

 

Wheel circumference must always be calibrated using an OEM CAN protocol

clip1522

When we calibrate the wheel speeds from an OEM vehicle (to make an OEM CAN Protocol), we always use the stock wheel sizes, so to get correct wheel speeds within MaxxECU, you must calibrate your wheel dimensions, since they are used to show you the correct speed in MaxxECU.
