red rocket Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Anyone know for sure whether a specialist can code this without recourse to OPC? Trying to get this done on my newly purchased 981. The specialist wasn't sure whether this might only be doable by OPC via link to Germany. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermot Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Nice YouTube video shows how to do it using PIWIS. Start at 6mins in if you wish. I would like to active this and also programme the auto start stop off as well. But I cannot find a PIWIS guru near me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Hamilton Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 Anyone with a PIWIS tester can do it. It doesn't need an activation code. The simple way is to just code it in the front control unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justchris Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 I did my rain sensing wipers myself, but had all sorts of issues when I tried to code the start stop to default off. Managed to kill my AC module temporarily, and fry my Bose amp (amp might have been coincidence)!! Not sure if it was user error, or the fact I'm using an unofficial PIWIS with a VAS 6154 clone. Needless to say I have been reluctant to play any more!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Hamilton Posted April 25 Report Share Posted April 25 Rain sensor wipers are only coded in the front control module, whereas stop/start is coded in several modules. Hence why it is best to edit the vehicle data and do automatic coding for stop/start, as shown in Jeff's YouTube video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
