How to Program New Key on a BMW R1200GS 2015 Motorcycle

Model:
BMW R1200GS year 2015 Motorcycle

Purpose: Add a spare key. Have original key in hand
Chip type:4D70
ECU: Bosch ME17.2 BMSX

First Try:
Copy key with original key using key copy machines. Try many key copier JMD Handy Baby II CN900, Keydiy etc, some can read chip type but ALL failed to copy key.

Second Try:
Try IMMO Off method

Remove the ECU.  It is a Bosch BMSX type ECU.

Follow Ktag master wiring to read Bosch ME17.2 BMSX IROM TC1797 BMW (P452)

Read data quickly
Immo off and write back to ECU
Nothing changes 2 days later.
Immo off failed.

Third Try:
Read immo data to to write key

Load data to Tango, VVDI2, TM100 key programmers, all failed to write key.
These devices support old BMW motorbikes with 46 chip only.  None will write a 4D70 chip key.

Last Try:
Finnaly I was told by some motorcycle experts,  the TMPro2 (Transponder Maker Pro) is a motor beast.

Device is very clean and simple. A main unit, a few connectors and an eeprom adapter.

Visit the official website http://tmpro2.com, download device software and got it well installed.

Directly connect device with laptop via USB port, don’t need extra power supply.
Software is multi-language available (Bulgarian, English, French, Portuguese, Polish, Hungarian, Spanish, Serbian, Italian, Czech, Chinese, Greek, Turkish and Romanian). Here I tested the Chinese version.

There are 211 software modules available currently, including 38 Motorbike modules.

It is said that it is THE ONLY tool in the world that can make key for keyless BMW motorbikes.

Device does come with some FREE functions:  read chip information, read and write EEPROMS 93cXX, 24cXX, 25cXXX, 95cXXX, S29190, X5328, Motorola 912 / 9S12, Microchip PIC18F252, read Motorola HC805P18 (need adapter), unlock Megamos Crypto ID48 chip and change mileage on BMW CAS FEM/BDC.

It can still used as a chip programmer if don’t buy any software module.

There are several BMW motorbike modules depends on years.

For R1200GS, you need to purchase module 191.
For BMSX or BMS2K or BMSMP ECU – to see where keys are stored you must check what is on ignition barrel.
If there is IMMOBOX UNIT – keys are stored in this unit but not in ECU.

Purcshe the license from the obd2tool.com again. They got it activated very quickly.

Then follow the wiring diagram to connect

Read the immo data and load data to TMPro2 transponder Key Programmer to write key (same procedure to add key and make all keys lost).

Result: successfully add a workingn new key using tmpro.

Enjoy.

BMW Motorcycle Diagnostic Tool Suggestion

 

Which BMW diagnostic tool is best for BMW motorcycles/bikes? ICOM A2? ICOM D? MOTO-1? GS-911? MOTO 7000TW? Here, Obd2tool.com engineers share the professional ideas here.

1- BMW ICOM A2 + ICOM D interface (BEST)

ICOM A2 is the best BMW diagnostic tool and ICOM D is the professional BMW motorcycle diagnose cables.

According to customer feedback, ICOM A2 + ICOM D is the most ideal tool for BMW motorcycle coding.

If ICOM A2+ICOM D is too expensive for you, try K+DCAN cable with ICOM D. Some bmw owners managed to use this kit for their bike coding. Most use this to cycle the ABS pump to bleed.

2- MOTO BMW Motorcycle-specific diagnostic scanner

BMW C, F, G, H, K and R series vehicles test of engine, ABS, instrument, and body system of motorcycle

3- GS-911 scanner for BMW motorcycle (POPULAR)

the emergency diagnostic tool for BMW motorcycles

4- MOTO 7000TW Motorcycle Scanner

the emergency diagnostic tool for BMW motorcycle

BMW ICOM NEXT A ICOM B C D for cars and BMW motorcycles

 

Here comes the new BMW Diagnostic Tool ICOM A2 update version – 2016 BMW ICOM NEXT A+B+C for cars and motorcycles diagnosis and programming.

ICOM NEXT highlights:

ICOM NEXT vs. ICOM A2

-> more stable during programming
-> be necessary for the future Gbit cars
-> faster start-up times and high throughput
-> through high-performance, low-power ARM SoC
-> improved handling
-> more flexible OBD cable
-> lighted button for logs

– Motivation
1- Ensure long-term availability
2- Commercial optimization

– Improved Functionality and Performance
1- Gbit workshop LAN, backwards compatible
2- Preparation for Gbit LAN on vehicle OBD II Scanner(cars do not yet support this and interface not yet defined, ICOM Next hardware adaptation will be necessary for future Gbit car interface, will cause adaptation costs)
3- Faster start-up times and high throughput
Through high-performance, low-power ARM SoC
4- Improved handling:

more flexible OBD cable
lighted button for logs etc.

– PCB of high quality:

– Package for BMW cars:
BMW ICOM NEXT A+B+C
BMW ICOM B Most
BMW 20pin Cable
USB Cable
LAN Cable
OBD Cable

Notice: There is no hdd in the package, you can choose V2016.3 ICOM HDD Win8 System

Package for BMW motorcycles:

You also need ICOM D interface
