What is BDM?
BDM is an acronym for Background Debug Mode, an interface designed by the Motorola company, widely
used in automotive industry, present on modern ECUs. Not all ECUs are capable of interfacing
through the BDM – see Appendix for the list of ECUs that support the BDM interface.
What is Adapter?
ADAPTER is an electronic circuit board designed for a certain ECU (manufacturer), with pogo pins and a 10-pin IDC connector for interfacing the multiplexer board.
What is a BDM Adapter?
BDM adapter is an electronic circuit intended for BDM operation on supported ECU. The adapter provides pogo pin based connectors for interfacing the ECU BDM connector. Interfacing the supported tool is made by the use of intermediate circuit board (multiplexer) that connects to the adapter over the MUX connector and to the tool over the desired tool connector (FGTECH, XPROG, BDM100,Dimsport, KTM100, KESS V2 & K TAG, etc.)

How to use a BDM probe adapter with KTAG/KESS/KTM100/Dimsport?
1.Open the ECU
○ at least one part of the casing (top or bottom) needs to be removed
○ refer to other sources (Internet) to get information on which part needs removing on your ECU
2.Locate the ECU BDM connector
○ usually a set of 10 – 12 pads in two rows (depending on the ECU)
○ pads may be 2.54 mm or 1.27 mm apart (depending on the ECU)
○ rows may be 2.54 mm or 5.08 mm apart (depending on the ECU)
○ if the ECU BDM connector can not be located, chances are that the BDM pads are scattered all over the ECU PCB in which case you can not use the adapter directly – nevertheless it is possible to manually route the adapter BDM signals to the ECU BDM pads (only for advanced users)
3.Locate the ECU BDM pin 1 position
○ pin 1 is usually not clearly marked on the ECU BDM pin out
○ on an ECU with the standard Motorola BDM pin out pins 3 and 5 are connected to ground – this can be checked either visually or using a multimeter tool
○ refer to other sources (Internet) to get more information on the pin 1 position for your ECU from CnAutotool.com
4.Place the desired adapter in the frame saddle
○ make sure the pogo pins are facing out
○ lift the saddle so that the ECU can be slided under the frame adapter saddle
5.Place the ECU on the frame
○ inspect the adapter for pogo pin 1 location which is clearly marked ○ rotate the ECU on the frame so that the adapter pogo pin 1 and ECU BDM pin 1 match
○ make sure ECU is firmly sitting on the frame
○ double check the ECU position
6.Connect the multiplexer board and adapter
○ at this point multiplexer board should be connected to the adapter via MUX connector
○ this will allow LEDs on the adapter to illuminate the area of interest (where the pogo pins need to touch the ECU BDM pads)
○ do not connect the tool yet
7.Connect the external power (+12 V) to the multiplexer
○ multiplexer external power is used to power the LEDs on the adapter allowing easier positioning of the adapter pogo pins on the ECU BDM pads
○ red LED on multiplexer board will light up when external power (+12 V) is present
○ at this point the white LEDs on the adapter should also light up
○ do not connect the tool yet
8.Fine tune the ECU position
○ lower the frame adapter saddle to almost touch the ECU BDM pads
○ each adapter pogo pin needs to sit on a separate ECU BDM pad
○ if pogo pins do not sit on the pads you may be using the wrong adapter – do not use the adapter in this case!
9.Lower the frame adapter saddle
○ each adapter pogo pin should sit on one ECU BDM pad
○ minimum down force should be applied when making the interconnection between the adapter and ECU
10.Double check the adapter pogo pin and ECU BDM pad interconnection
○ in order not to damage the ECU and/or tool make sure that the steps above have been performed correctly
11.Connect the tool to the multiplexer board
○ only connect one tool at any given moment to the multiplexer
○ make sure to use the correct 10-pin IDC connector (FGTECH, XPROG, BDM100&KTAG)for interfacing the tool used:
1 use provided 10-pin to 10-pin cable with FGTECH or BDM100 tools
2 use provided 10-pin to 16-pin cable with XPROG tool
3 use manufacturer 10-pin to 25-pin cable with KTAG tool
○ do not connect the tool to the 10-pin IDC connector labeled MUX
○ do not power up the tool yet
12.For Bosch adapter only
○ Bosch ECUs need to have ECU power supplied on the pogo pins (2 and 9)
○ some tools provide dedicated ECU power (BDM100, KTAG) while others do not (XPROG, FGTECH)
○ Bosch adapter can be used in both cases, providing that the jumper is properly placed on the 3-pin header (found on the adapter)
○ place the jumper on the adapter on the 3-pin header to the correct position:
○ place jumper over left and central pins when using XPROG and FGTECH tools – this will use +12 V power delivered from the multiplexer board (external power) for powering the ECU
○ place jumper over right and central pins when using BDM100 or KTAG tools – this will use +12 V power delivered by the tool for powering the ECU
13.For Siemens, Delphi and Marelli adapters only
○ Siemens, Delphi and Marelli do not provide ECU power on the pogo pins
○ in order to power the ECU +12 V and ground signals needs to be connected to the ECU separately(usually over the ECU interfacing connector)
○ in this case ECU power can be taken from multiplexer board connectors J2 (+12 V) and J3 (ground), otherwise provide the +12 V ECU power from additional source
○ refer to other sources (Internet) to get more information on the location of the +12 V and ground pin location for your ECU
14.Connect the tool to the PC (or power up the tool)
○ perform software installation as described by the tool manufacturer if not done already
○ at this point the multiplexer, adapter and the ECU should be properly interconnected with BDM signals and power lines
1 multiplexer red LED should be lit up
2 adapter white LEDs should be lit up
3 ECU power (+12 V) should be present
○ connect the tool to the PC (usually done over USB or serial connection)
15.Perform BDM operation(s)
○ start up the software package to operate the ECU Programmer
○ perform desired BDM operation(s)Note: The user manual is used for reference; in fact, it depends. Try on your own risk.

Read and Write BMW Bosch DME MEVD172G with KTAG KTM100

Purpose:
DIY – DME/ECU Read Write and Tuning  2016MY F82 M using KTAG KTM100 master clone ecu tuning tool.
Disclaimer: Credit to su_root on bimmer forum provided the document for educational purposes. We are not responsible for any direct or indirect damage that may occur to your property as a result of the information provided here.
Parts arrived this morning. Below are pictures of what was included in the box.
–KTAG KTM100 Clone (US$349)
-12v/1A AC Adapter
-USB2.0 A-to-B Cable
-Cables to wire up to the DME

Software setup:
The instructions provided recommend the use of WinXP/Win7, disabling all network connections and malware detection programs. I was in a rush to stage the software and connect the flashing tool to ensure all was OK so I tested the following setup on a Win10Pro x64 machine. I also made the changes below before starting:
-Disable Driver Signature Enforcement – REQUIRED or Dimsport driver will not install and device will show as ‘Unknown’ under Device Manager
-Disable AV/Malware Software – I use Webroot/Defender and shut them off
-Disable LAN/WLAN adapters
After making the changes above to my PC I powered up the adapter and plugged in the USB cable. Windows warned me of the unsigned driver and continued the install.
Bringing up Car Diagnostic Tool KTM100 I see all is recognized correctly. You can also see below that the DME is supported and a plugin is available to communicate with that DME and calculate the correct checksum. Ready to start!


On Sunday I was able to get the car on the dyno and grab some factory numbers.
Phase 1 – Reading the DME:
Here she is. Bosch MEVD172G DME.
Below are a few pictures of the outside of the unit. I cleaned up a bit of sand around the unit to make sure nothing gets in while I attempt to open it up.

After about 30 minutes with a small blade going around the edges of the unit I was able to open the casing up. Luckily the components are not close to the edge of the case so as you’re going around it with a blade you don’t have to worry too much. But as always be careful not to jam the blade too deep; you may accidentally damage some of the surface mounted components.

Wired up the unit to the ECU Programming Tool KTM100 clone using the PDF attachment I posted earlier. Reading procedure is as follows:
1. Connect wires from the provided harnesses to the DME pins as shown in the Bosch PDF including BOOT pin.
2. Power ON KTM100 and connect to USB on PC
3. Launch KTM100 Application
4. Connect the harness side of the cables to the KTM100
5. Click ‘ID’ in KTM100 Application to verify DME communication.
6. Done. Now you can carry out the function you need (read/write/etc)



Phase 2 – Tuning:
You have two options:
1. Acquire and LEARN tuning software like WinOLS, ECM TITANIUM or similar, and spend time and resources on custom dyno tuning the car.
2. Take your dumped files and send them off to a tuner for tuning service. Most US tuners will flat out turn your business away. I wont call them out here but I would encourage you to contact them and listen to their response first hand.
I installed the DME back into the car yesterday afternoon. It was pretty nerve wrecking to sit in the car and push the ‘Start’ button. I was very confident I followed all the right steps but there’s always that sense of uncertainty in the back of your mind. What if i damaged something? At that moment I didn’t care if the remaps actually yielded any results; I was just hoping the car would crank back up. I held my breath, pushed ‘Start’ and the car sprung back to life. It was such a sense of accomplishment.
