Hello all, this is all new to me so excuse the ignorance but i would like to confirm that if I clear the fault codes for ews veh immobilizer on an e46 bmw that I will not be erasing the key from the system.
I have dtc codes 0f,00,01 which indicate key is not identified yet car starts w/key. So i don't want to erase the immobilizer system. I have no way to reprogram the keyTags: DS708, , E46, , KEY, , IMMOBILIZER

You can clean the DTC. I think you have a function in Services, to pair up the EWS with KEY. In that cars that is normal to happen. Please give it a try. I done that few weeks ago. -

So even if it was erased from memory. I can pair the key with the ews using the das708? -

I think it's possible to do with DS708. But I only tried with Maxisys. -

Is it a current code or an old one.
First of all; clearing codes does not erase your key's from the immobiliser/EWS. That would be a seperate function.
If the codes come back, it might be usefull to get into it further (synchronising the keys for instance). -

You are right. One thing is clear DTC other thing is clear Key. I know, that function is available in Maxisys, but in Maxidas I don't know. -
