I'm having an issue with the convertible top on my E36 and have realised that I need to access the CVM module to read the codes to see what is going on with it.
I've tested all the micro switches and the motors and everything is checking out. The S1 & S2 micro switches on the top motor are calibrated and within spec so at this stage I need to get the "real story" from the CVM module.
I have a computer with a serial port and INPA installed that I've used with a USB cable in the past on a number of BMW's. My issue is that the E36 needs the older ADS interface to access some modules and the CVM is one of them.
Unfortunately I don't have one of these and the closest one seems to be in the States.
I was wondering if anyone had an old one lying around?
They seem to be scarce nowadays.
Any help would be appreciated.
