I can send you my LSM backup if you want, though your own would be better due to things like VIN and mileage - not sure if they'd get altered or not.

did you do a back up before doing anything with TOAF, and if you did, have you tried to load that back up?

I think the version I saw the sidelight options was in the version 43. I havent used it often, so I cannot remember exactly where it is. But there are options for headlights , running lights etc. It is amongst that. Possibly one of the alternative settings, eg day running lights is activated. This is what happened to my boot release. The tailgate release was selected, even though I did not select it.

Hi.
I think it's to do with DRL settings on Toaf. If you have played around with turning on DRL'S with it you loose the sidelights.
My advice is ALWAYS back up each module prior to altering anything.
OK so that's my advice, try downloading the new version and then carefully look at each option for the LSM (LCM) and any that seem odd change it, do a backup first in case you make things worse. If no joy you will need a T4 or VT4 session.
Toaf is OK but again I say a Back up is obligatory.
Good Luck

Thanks for the offer, all sorted now by BigRuss , sorry to say the the problems were CAUSED by TOAF. or at least by using it..

Having looked at the TOAF software, it's full of bugs and glitches. Sure it APPEARS to do some things OK, but it behaves the same as doing brain surgery with a blunt fork, it screw up the cars firmware in an unpredictable manner. If you thought MS Windows was buggy, well TOAF will possibly give your car the "blue screen of death".

I count myself as VERY lucky that BigRuss was able tore-install the firmware with his T4. The >backup< on TOAF is completely useless. My advice is to delete it as soon as possible and don't be tempted to use it.

Hi Andrew.
I've got both Toaf & T4, Toaf is OK so long as you do the back up, never had a problem with any back up whatsoever, the problem is if you change something and haven't done a back up initially. I also have found that some of the leads can introduce glitches, the cheap ones are especially bad, that isn't Toafs fault but can lead to people blaming it beacuse they had an issue.

Yes, if you would be so kind as to send me a copy of the .BIN file, I'll compare it with mine.

IKE :
ID : YAC112411 , HW : 03 SW : 10 CI : 03
VIN : 2D236488
Odometer : 342689 km
Errors : 2
BE - light module-EEPROM error
BF - IKE-EEPROM error, coding incorrect/incomplete
ZCS :
GM : 732E0121-H
SA : 6921014094000402-E
VN : 00100000

TOAF does nor re-write the code correctly, even using a backup TOAF seems incapable of reloading the EEPROMS firmware correctly.


LCM :
ID : YWC105010 , HW : 08 SW : 13 CI : 28
VIN : 2D236488
Odometer : 342689 km
Errors : 0

It SHOWS no errors, but it's telling lies.

Maybe it's malware/ransomware/harvestware/trojan. With the information collected by TOAF Cloneware?? who knows. "I can fix your car and give you the code, just Paypal me 50 Euros" ??

My english is not very good but I had the same problem and I contact Toaf.
They send me the LCM_default_new_version.toaf file and I upload this file to my cars lcm and all was working perfect.
