ISTA \/ P should be used with an ICOM interface. To cover all of your vehicle modules, you need ICOM A, ICOM B and ICOM C for BMW vehicles that were produced before June 2001.<\/p>\n<p>When programming with ISTA\/P, you need to observe the following precautions:<br \/>\n\u2022 Always follow the instructions and requests given in ISTA\/P.<br \/>\n\u2022 Leave your vehicle&#8217;s ignition switched on.<br \/>\n\u2022 Do not cut or interrupt the connection between your vehicle, the workshop network, and the vehicle interface.<br \/>\n\u2022 After any action initiated in the luggage compartment, always close the the boot lid to prevent overheating the luggage compartment lighting.<br \/>\n\u2022 You should not perform any other activity in your vehicle while programing aside from what is instructed by ISTA\/P.<\/p>\n<p>If you wish some assistance in your BMW coding and programming, you can request for remote coding assistance for a flat fee here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.obd2tool.com\/blog\/category\/bmw-trouble-repair\/\">BMW Trouble Repair<\/a>.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ISTA \/ P stands for Integrated Service Technical Application \/ Programming.
