Restoring the original mileage in EWS

LZ0 · 26th June 2022, 09:34

Hello,

I messed up the mileage in EWS by connecting a used high-mileage IKE. This somehow changed the mileage in EWS, but not changed VIN.
However, if I put back the original IKE, but EWS mileage not restored to original value. Luckily the car unlocks and starts normally, but is it safe to drive like that?

Prior to the changes I backed up the original modules with TOAF and BMW Scanner, but unable to restore the EWS from backup, due to module being locked.
How do I unlock EWS for writing the mileage? Is there a known procedure that I can follow on my own without taking the EWS off and reprograming with external tool?

Any help is highly appreciated!
