Agreed, and thanks to @doublespaces for giving these conversations a home here outside Facebook.
M3 DCT Wiring Diagram
- Thread starter dyezak
- Start date
For posterity sake. To emulate the M-Power button:
Address 0x399 byte 2, bits 4-7 Decimal Value 1 is off, 2 is M-Power
Address 0x399 byte 1, bits 0 and 1. 1 is off, 2 is M-Drive
Those two flags need to be set on the PT_CAN BUS for the Transmission to realize that it needs to flip to launch control mode after you perform the M3 GWS/ZB Flash conversion.
We can perform this with a standalone CAN injector (I'm building one out of an arduino), and @Terry@BMS has indicated that the JB4 can set these flags on startup.
ETA: DME transmits an ArbID with engine type and gearbox type, as well as chassis type, so if the gearbox looks for that as a confirmation, it may not act.

Essentially we could have an Arduino CAN injector hooked up to the power button and it would behave just like the M3 launch control (fyi).
Well done mate. 1 part solved. Thanks to @Terry@BMS as well. There’s a JB4 in my future.
I reckon you’re not far away. The most difficult part I think will be the chatter between the TCU, DME and DSC during a launch event. I imagine that it’s a complex interchange of open/close throttle/clamp/Unclamp clutch as well as apply/release rear brake.

It’s the M3 stuff ... It’s going to be interesting when we see what the IS stuff looks like. Wonder how similar itll be...
Edit the data doesn’t appear to have an RPM value.....How does the DME know what launch RPMs are set to ?

This is only the power button being depressed, which is what the hunt was for.
I didn't sniff it out, this was collaboration work. I will have to provide a sniff trace to @Terry@BMS so he can see the raw data, but I know exactly what to look for in the sniff logs once I get them.
From that thread that J Colley Linked to ... All of the messages for the DKG, including torque request. This means that we can actually tell the DKG that more torque than actual is being delivered. This means we can increase clamping pressure up to the limit. We just dont know what the limit is... Am i correct in my assumption?

Also a lot of the messages to/from the DKG are similar to SMG. The work to add DCT to SMG cars will be very useful
With regards to coding we may also have to add +2MK for the M DCT, +2MDA for dynamic drive, remove 2TCA dual clutch and i cant find the code we have for DSC but my calibration would be euro spec and different to the US one in any case.
Also he can use the standard sport button to raise the sport level but he can’t get it to go back down lol
No m3 button for him
Quote ‘No errors now.
Drive works and displays correctly on the cluster.
Sport button functions as drive logic adjustment up.
Both manual and drive show the drive logic bars on the cluster. Nothing in the I drive functions as of now.’

I think that I've added some posts here relating to coding that need to be moved to the CIC Coding thread or maybe we just amalgamate the two ?

So the drivelogic cluster is not necessary?
Let me know what you guys need and I'll do it. I'm only 1/2 following whats going on here. I'm also leaving for a vacation so I'll be intermittent through Friday.
Just bought an M3 GWS(sans knob lol) for 100AUD
BMW part number 7842102. Wish me luck.

Yup, the M3 GWS only has 8 pins. The 335is has 10 pins. The 2 missing pins are the park lock. For the conversion I think you'd want to just short those two pins and leave them that way. The other 8 wires are a direct transfer to the new connector.
