Well, I was able to make the last three changes but it is not working. My issue is on the first step

Information & Communication > IC Instrument Cluster > Control Unit Adaptations > Select your MY > Variant Coding > Special Equipment > Mirror Fold-In > PRESENT

After I select Control Unit Adaptations, I am not able to Select my MY. There is no option for that. This is probably what is keeping it from working.

If anyone has any ideas, I would really appreciate it.

OK, I figured it out. On my 2006, the option is under

Information & Communication > IC Instrument Cluster > Special Equipment > Mirror Fold-In > PRESENT

When I found it there and changed it, everything is working. Thanks for all of the help on this thread.

Question on linking with DAS. Many times I can not get to codeing for say rear O-2 sensors to turn on/off. All the boxes will be blank.
I also have the SRS light on and can not get into AIR BAGS on the screen. Tells me no power but there is.
All codes are clear after QUICK TEST/SCAN as well but there shows no faults when doing a scan for air bags.
Any one run into this ?

Hello,
Without knowing anything about your situation...did you set the lan ip address correctly?
The ethernet cable is plugged into your laptop and the multiplexer?
And the ODB cable is plugged into the car and the multiplexer?
