Can anyone advise please. If I had 2 BEV i3's next to each other both 2014 one a runner but at cat B and the other missing an EME what parts would I need to swap over to make the non runner work. Obviously EME, I'm guessing FEM, set of keys and possibly the Ecu. Has any got the experience to...

Thanks for your response, yes it has a couple of watches now but no enquiries, perhaps others in my position. I've added words like chassis and life module. Out of interest what words do you think searches will enter to find something like this.

I've listed the carbon fibre tub on ebay, no takers so far at £199 or best offer. I thought it would be snapped up but maybe not the best time of year to sell. I wonder how difficult it would be to separate the carbon from the alloy, anyone tried it?

Interesting and very complex topic. A lot of disinformation is floated and bias on both sides for varying reasons. Only an option but my thoughts are:- Are Ev's for everyone? As mentioned previously if you cannot charge at home for whatever reason then the answer for the majority is No. So...

Yes, I struggle with those 2 connections too. It would be good if someone has a tip on removing those. I managed but think it was more luck than judgement

Be careful, make sure you've removed all the bolts that hold the top down, more than you imagine. Most water connections have the metal clip that can be levered up with a flat blade but the hose on the back of mine was a traditional sprung loaded clip so needed pliers and patients as the EME is...

I see, I'll do some pictures when the weather permits. In a nutshell all the interior and all the external panels have been removed revealing the carbon tub, the battery has been dropped. At the minute it's sat on its wheels/suspension but once these have been removed then all that remains is...

Anything in particular or just an overall puncture of the Tub?

Hi folks, I've recently stripped an i3 down to the bare bones. Originally it had front impact and wasn't worth the airbag/bonnet etc repair so bit by bit it's been took apart and I'm trying to completely fill my garage by the looks. That aside I now have tub sat on its wheels at the moment but...

Pete at Remington, the company that used to do it using explorer stopped as they couldn't warrant it as the ones that didn't brick during the process some went on to fail later. I'd go with the hex 2 route out of the 2. If I fail trying this route, there is someone on ebay who does it using Hex...

Info I think I have so far is that it's jtag protocol and the pins to use are 22, 23, 24 and 25 For TMS TDI TDO plus ground and vcc. Programming is not my strong point so it's all a bit of a wing and a prayer. I've found a usb to jtag cable on ebay. The bits I'm missing at the moment is the jtag...

Yes, I'm the one with an i3 without eme. The one I've taken out of the Rex I have dismantled was a good one so Its a risk to try and virginise it without being 100% so to I thought selling and buying a BEV version was more sensible. On the virginising front I'm looking into how we can make...

Sorry RP67.... Darn you dyslexia :)

Thanks PR67. I've struggled in the past to get info on the EME internals this is really useful. I've currently got a 2018 BEV EME in my 2014 just to see what error I get while I try and find the correct year version. Although it's not cleared and coded I can tell it's close with only a few...

The one I'll be listing on ebay soon is 8630199 if its of interest.

Some great info in this thread which has helped me as I'm on a similar journey. Have you found a replacement EME?

I'm not that familiar with ista at the moment but would suspect if ista needs to see a certain voltage and it's not seeing it or doesn't think it's seeing it and is acting accordingly I guess. Have you got a DVM to see which one is telling the truth?

Oh dear, I have an EME issue and that's the symptom I get too as it drops into a fail safe mode. All the best, let us know what solves it.

Maybe good news. Does it drive? Is the HV battery already full so not needing to charge?
