Thank You For Saving The Day

After purchasing a ‘07 R52 the previous owner let the battery die completely for days before I took possession of the vehicle - when I was ready to pick it up the car would not start. Everything was working it was cranking, but no spark.

With a code reader it was determined to be P01656 causing the DME to not allow the vehicle to start.

After many attempts with myself and my backyard mechanic friend we were stumped.

Quick search found me RPM Motorsports - a quick email to confirm logistics and I made my purchase. I got my shipping label for UPS right away followed the instructions given in my email and sent my ECU off - in 2 days it was with RPM and within a day it was on its way back to me.

While in transit I got updates and instructions on what I needed to do to have the car prepared. The instructions were beyond clear.

When the ECU arrived it was packaged well and I simply plugged it in - turn the key and BOOM the car started no issue!

Thank you guys for allowing me to hit the road so easy! 10/10 service and product!

Thank you for the great review!

Fast reliable service

My car would not crank. I had already ruled out the starter and wiring. I contacted RPM Motorsports for EWS repair. They suggested EWS delete, which made sense to me. I shipped them my DME. It received their 24 hour turn around. I got it back, installed it and the car started perfectly. The RPM Motorsport team is knowledgeable and reliable.

Thanks for sharing your experience :)

Product Information

This is a Unlocked DME Service for any BMW with ME5.2.1 DME (Bosch number 0261204467) Years 1997 to 1998.

This is useful for removing your EWS system when having the following issues:

1. EWS 3.3 failed due to a battery boost.

2. Replaced a EWS3.3 to a EWS4 from your local BMW Dealer and now running into problems.

3. You have Used your 10 Keys allowed by BMW and now your local dealer is asking you to replace the whole set for $$$$.

4. Upgrading a Race Car and wanting to remove your EWS System.

5. Installing an Engine into an older BMW that does Not have a EWS system in it.

If any of those 5 options is what you are looking for then you may go ahead and order since they fit your needs.

Please Note: You will need to leave the EWS removed and short pins 1 and 2 in the EWS female plug with a 25 or 30 amp fuse and then also short pin 8 and pin 11 (12 volts) so that the engine can crank.

Please Note: We use a hardware component in the DME to unlock it. For 0261204467 DMEs there is NO way to unlock them in the software only.
