* Connect with Esys - Target Selector: choose the i-step that most closely matches your car version. For G20 that's S18A_xx_xx. Under Interface, select 'Connection by VIN' If your VIN is not listed you have an issue. DO NOT select any of the options prefixed with "xx_DIRECT"

* Hit Connect button

* Under 'Vehicle Order' click on Read

* Under 'Vehicle Order' right-click on FA and choose Activate FA if required

* Under 'SVT Actual', click on Read (ECU)

* If it's the first time you have coded, right-click on ECU under the SVT tree and choose 'Read Coding Data'. Use Windows File Explorer to backup your CAF directory which by default is C:\Data\CAF

* Save your FA and SVT

* Under Editors and Viewers - select 'FA Editor' and load your saved FA

* Click on SALAPA-Element find and remove 5AP from the list. Click on Apply Changes

* Click on File-Save As Give it a name e.g "FA_no_5AP"

* Switch back to Expert Mode-Coding Load the FA you just created with no 5AP and do Read (ECU) again.

* Select the following 5 ECU's in the SVT pane:

BDC_BODY3
HU_MGU
FML (both of them)
KAFAS4

* With the 5 ECUs selected, click on Code (not Code Default Values.) Alternatively you can right click on each and "code"

* Check the report is Green for all 5 ECUs. Warnings are OK, but the text should be Green. Any red texts suggests you have a problem

* That's it!
That's the stuff, exactly what I needed.

I'll report back once I successfully code it again, and if not just assume I died in the explosion!
