BimmerCode - now favorites buttons don’t work properly

BHK · 11-23-2017, 09:40 PM

Was super excited to code with BimmerCode to remove legal disclaimers and enable dvd in motion. Nothing too crazy, but my favorite buttons for radio now just brings up the list of stations, not the actual station they were associated with. For example when hitting favorite #1, it now brings up a list of the satellite stations, not Alt Nation, which it used to. I tried to re-program the buttons but they keep behaving this way.
I restored the backup to original settings but the issue still persists. Has anyone had this happen?
Thanks in advance!

I've had this happen too. Since I have all my favorite stations as presets and never actually used the buttons to change radio stations, I just reprogrammed them to do other things - bass control for stereo and weather app. To me, the changes I coded were worth this minor hiccup. Good luck.

You need to backup profile to USB before coding headunit and restore afterwards.

Thank you - that pointed me in the right direction. It ended up being a super easy fix. I just switched my key to a new profile and now everything is working correctly.
Cheers!
