Help with Coding Out Active Headrest (Head Restraint)

paulrr · 11-07-2022, 07:54 PM

Hello everyone,

Hoping someone might have insight into this odd request... I'm looking at possibly swapping out my headrests (G05/G06) with the active head restraint. This will obviously throw a fault due to the mechanism inside.

Trying to see if anyone knows how to code this out and if it can be done with Bimmercode?

I saw this same topic on other models (older M3, etc.) mentioned on the forum for similar reasons of seat swaps, etc. but the instructions there didn't seem to align with any settings I see in expert mode on my vehicle in Bimmercode so I am thinking they are under a different name/setting maybe?

Anyone with any expertise/ideas here would be greatly appreciated!
