Central Vehicle Electronics/ZFE/GM issues / Re: HELP - Mileage discrepancy!

« Last post by Jughead on May 14, 2026, 01:38:14 PM »

@miguelmpn  You can take your bike in to your friendly BMW dealer and have them code the new cluster with the correct mileage.  Note that they can only "upwrite" (apparently a BMW expression) and cannot "downwrite".  I.e. they can only add mileage to the new cluster, not lower it.

So, if your original cluster showed 40000km, and the new one shows 35000km, they can add the 5000km to the mileage display and match the DME.

If your new cluster shows 50000km, they cannot lower the mileage to 40000km.

This can also not be done with the GS911.

Alright, it seems we are deviating from my original statement, which was about an F700GS.

The cluster isn't original to the motorcycle. The original was damaged in the accident. I went in an ambulance, and obviously, no one picked up the pieces on the ground.
Later, I was advised to send the motorcycle to the dealer and pay much more than the bike was worth, so I repaired it myself and did a good job, except for the discrepancy error in the cluster that makes the Kms blink.

To replace the missing cluster, I decided to buy a second one from a motorcycle of the same year. This means that the VIN is different, and it has less Kms than the ECU. My plan was to add kms in the cluster until it reaches the ECU mileage. It works well in analogue clusters, but that does not seem possible here, that is what I wanted to know.

GS-911 Wifi / (Better?) Instructions for using D2D betwen iPhone 911-Wifi with iPhone hotspot?

« Last post by JRWooden on May 11, 2026, 07:49:55 PM »

I have the Hex GS-911 user manual dated 3/26  -  Edition 17
Either I missed it or the latest enhancements for using a WiFi 911 w/ an iphone including hotspot doesn't seem to be covered completely...

Is there a separate document?
Did I miss it somehow?
or do I just need to be more patient with the technical writer?   

Thanks,
Jim

€80 is very cheap for a diagnostics session at a main dealership for any manufacturer, on a merc in the UK std free is over €300

its more about the cost of the work booking it beforehand, then saying hello on the day and filling out paperwork (and charging for work done at pick up), then the tech taking 10 mins to find and get in the workshop, and then plugging it in to talk to base to see what muddle up the bike is in - altogether that'll be 30 mins chargeable labour easily - and the rental on the dealer online diagnostic equipment on a Merc is €12000 a year ongoing - I expect a BMW dealer won’t be charged much less to lease the equipment

I can see a number of pitfalls

1) the VIN listed in the cluster unit now on your bike isn't likely to be your bikes original VIN so BMW systems will bulk at any further work - unless someone has helped you sort this - its all doable just not easy and most don't have the kit.  No idea how on the TFT cluster from 2017 to 2024, but I bet its doable. (note: this is not case on newer 2025 model year bikes, they have a new setup stopping play)

2) it maybe that HEX have done some work that maybe give insights on both the VIN change and the Mileage issue - worth asking the question

3) maybe you are unaware - the TFT clusters have been full of quite buggy software and a number of minor issues, and with user weirdness and features not behaving - there is about 10 cluster software updates that say a 2018 bike hasn't got vs an up to date 2024 unit has

so if the VIN inside the unit is OK it likely needs an update and you could come out in a good place....

Way too much irrelevant info & misinformation better to comment on individual issues when the subject is known & answers are relevant clearly not in this case

With the K7 CAN dashes VIN, VO & ODO values are all stored in Dash & BMSKP with the dash acting as backup, the EEPROM in the dashes has been determined by others to be read only for VIN & ODO at a minimum & it is labelled as Mfr of BMW so is custom for them to prevent 3rd party EEPROM Reader/Writers being used to change content, I can think of one owner who went to the extent of desolder of the EEPROM & resolder on an other pcb

There has been no volume of requests to look further into reprogramming of the K7 dashes, repairs however due ageing there are many requests, completed 3 this week alone & another arriving next week

The "the TFT clusters have been full of quite buggy software" TFT display is merely a display firmware is specific to the model/year of the bike & for the K7 dash consists of one updatable firmware file for all the dash functions so to lump all year model issues together is rubbish, the dash firmware including the LCD display on the K7 is good & stable
