There are two groups of FSC activation Codes:
  • Map codes
    • E-sys, SWID Reader, or FTP into car to download current FSC set. Then use secondary program to generate either Map Specific (eg, North American Next 2017-1) or lifetime (eg, NA American Next Lifetime) FSC code which is manually entered into idrive via controller knob. This method excludes HU_NBT2, which has a new FSC scheme.
    • Script activation for older head units (eg, HU_CIC).
  • All Other FSC codes (eg, SLI)
    • Requires BMW ASAP (Aftersales Assistance Portal) to pull VIN specific FSC files that can be loaded with E-sys.

This is how my dash looks like, you can insert the compass direction in the middle?
This is want
Can you display it on the HUD?
Thanks,
The Compass is one of the Instrument Cluster BC toggles (eg, Arrival time, Average consumption, EcoPro bonus range, etc).
Settings for HUD & dash are found both in cluster (eg, KOMBI) & Head Unit (eg, HU_NBT) ECU.
