Control unit is not coded

Hi Everyone - For stupid reasons, I had to replace my center control unit (shifter/driving mode buttons etc). I've swapped it out and it all seems fine, however when reviewing errors I see "Coding: Control unit is not coded" (error code is 025E08).

It's not presenting any issues that I can see, nor any warnings, but would like to fix it. Does anyone know what it may want in order to feel.. coded?

Appreciate your help. I've got the OBDLink BT+ & Bimmerlink/Bimmercode. I'm assuming there's something more involved that these apps cannot do though.

Some parts are common across several models, and to work properly, other than the fit, they need to be coded for your particular model to customize them for proper operation.

Use esys to code.
Connect => Read FA (VO) => Activate FA (VO) => Read SVT (ECU)=> Left-Click on GWS => Click on "Detect CAF for SWE" => Select the CAFD from latest I-Level shown (bottom) => Select OK => Right-Click on GWS (the ECU itself not the underlying CAFD) => Select CODE.

I can code remotely if you still need coding.

I am having the exact same issue here.

Just replaced my gear selector panel with a brand new one. It works but I get parking assistance malfunction and then when checking bimmerlink sensors, it says control unit not coded and coding data does not match control unit.

I only have bimmerlink and Bimmer code. Any tips?>
