- BMW Diagnostic Tool is a specific device that designed to do BMW Series vehicle diagnosis.BMW diagnostic tool such as bmw E/F scanner,bmw scanner v1.4 can read and clear obd2 fault codes, read out ogram memory, EEPROM,coding data,amount of DTCs and DTCs shadow-memory.
- The new BMW software can perform programming and coding for all BMW E/ F/ G series cars. Same as BMW ICOM A1 / A2 / A3, BMW ICOM NEXT supports all BMW Software and is good at fiber programming. About this ICOM tool, please use our software.
So when i first got my E46 325 convertible it came with 1 key (diamondshape) this worried me, i asked dealer local to me who sniggered and said itwould be a “£150 custom order from Germany” to get another one. Not immediatelyneeding one and slightly knocked back i declined and was back to square one..

I did hours of reading about it from all across the internet and now ihave located the correct method for achieving a key and much cheaper.
Being a software developer/ general techie by trade i was not put off bythe challenge!
oAk90Programmer- I got it via obd tool website
oNew unprogrammed key internals + chip (the chip is important)- I got fromeBay (£20 delivered – took 1 and half weeks)
oKey cut (for the lock of car) – Local key smith £6
So already thats a total of: £75ish saving you aprox £100
Step 1: Remove the EWS Module (or immobilizer module from the car)
This is located here under the steering wheel of the car behind all theplastic trim:
What you need to do is remove 2 screws (possibly 3) mine might have beenmissing 1 so check all along the trim:
Once undone the trim panel should pull down.. like this:
If you stick your head up inside there you should see a white box this isyour EWS or immobilizer unit for the car:
this is what we need to take out of the car.. it is held in by 2 plastic10mm nuts on a clever but very fiddly to get at bracket. Once both bolts areundone the unit should just hang down.
The is a black plug on one side of the unit you need to push down on thetab and it should slide out.. here is the plug so you can see how thatworks:
Thats it.. you should now have the EWS unit out of the car this is all youneed:
I have provided the software i used with the AK90 programmer over at mydownloads page here:
Edit: I have had reports the software didnt open correctly so i haveprovided another setup..
Download and extract to a folder where you can see/use it for example yourdesktop
The first step is to plugin the AK90 using the provided usb cable windowsshould automatically detect and start drive install (im using Win 7) theunit will beep dont worry. It will fail on driver install at this stage thatsonly so we have the unit plugged in ready to be installed.
Run: AK90+ setup.exe hit next and install to default path.
Once finished you should see two icons appear on desktop:
At this stage you need to install the drivers and make the drive work sohit:
Follow the install to the end and make sure “Launch the CP210x VCP driverinstaller” is selected, hit install and ok.
Replug the AK90 windows will now say the driver is installed.
Make sure to restart your pc to confirm the drivers/software install.
Double click the AK90 icon on your desktop, the software should launch andyou should hear it beep and click a few times.
This is good it means the computer has found the device on the com portand we are ready to go!
Lets test your key, place this in the slot in the AK90 programmer likethis:
In my case this is the garage key/valet key im programming just to showeveryone how to do it, i originally did this with the diamond key i purchasedthe process is the same.
Go back to the software and select “test key” this will read the data fromthe key and a box like this will pop up:
So as you can see the device has worked out its a key for EWS3/4 anddoesnt currently have a VIN or any mileage data.. this is good it proves its ablank virgin key.
Here is my current diamond key tested(with my vin cut out):
So we have proved the device works and is talking to our computer nowwhat? its time to program our blank key to the module we took out earlier.
Take your EWS unit and open the top, this folds open like this:
The circuit board is held on the far side by the black plug the is 4 bitsyou have to push in and slide the unit out:
Now we take the connector wire for the programmer and carefully attachthis onto the circuit board, in this case the wire has a big red dot on it. Weneed to line this up with the dot on the chip:
What i did was made sure that the connection between the chip and theconnector was at its best is to make sure that every pin on the circuit boardis bare metal. I scratched gently with a small blade/screw driver to make theconnection good.
Make sure you note down the chip type in my case it is: OD46J (thisis important)
Connect the other end to the AK90..
Open up the AK90 software which should still be open from earlier andclose the test key box you should just have a software screen that looks like:
With the blank key out of the slot and the EWS unit connected:
Select your chip type from the drop down that you noted down earlier minewas: OD46J
Hit read EWS a warning message will appear double check you haveeverything connected and hit ok
Once donea save dialogue will appear just save this file to your desktop,basically this is a backup of the data from the chip
You should see a screen of random letters and numbers:
This is the EWS data we have collected from the module..
If you hit EWS analyse this reads the data and tells you what keys arebeing used, mileage and the VIN number.
This is the screen where you can disable and enable current keys (handy ifyou lost one)
You should be at the main screen with all the numbers and letters on,place your virgin/new key into the slot on the AK90 and select write key
This is where you select the key slot you wish to write this in my casethat would be key slot 7 (no idea where the other 4 keys are! i only have 3)
Select the slot and select write key you will get a warning making surethat you have placed key in slot just select yes (obviously making sure the keyis in the slot first!)
The device will make some chirping noises and beeps as it writes to EWSunit:
After aprox 1-2mins you should see confirmation that the keys data iscoded
Select the chip type from earlier (see the warning i told you this wasimportant!
Wait for aprox 1-2mins and you should see:
Press ok, thats it you have coded your ews data to the key and then backto the ews unit.
Id recommend testing the key now again (hit test key)
Same process as before but in reverse.. can be a bit fiddly but stick atit..
What i did was place the EWS unit back in place and with my other hand puteach nut on finger tight and then fully tightened up with a small socket
