Quick tips:

While the BIM is operating, the dot in the upper left corner of the display will indicate the status:
On steady indicates it is powered up but not receiving any BIM bus activity.
Flashing indicates it is communicating on the BIM bus.
A dot in the upper center indicates that there is an engine code set (MIL active).
If the display shows "BUS", then it is scanning to try and communicate with the vehicle bus but cannot get an
answer.
o
This could indicate that the FiTech CAN outputs have not been enabled (pg. 7), or that the BIM-01-2-
FTCH is not compatible with this ECU.
To see the sensor and channel status on the BIM display, press and hold the switch to cycle through the screens.
The first screen will show the bus type ( - FiTech), and the following screens will display the data that is available:
"" – Engine Coolant Temp
"" - Intake Air Temp
"" - Gear Position
"" - Boost/Vacuum data
"" - RPM/Tachometer data
If you do not see any number of these listed, the data may not be transmitted for the BIM-01-2-FTCH to read.
Emissions note:
If your vehicle requires emissions testing in your area, the check engine feature of this unit cannot be used to operate the
Check Engine or Service Engine indicator.
