Question:
Played around with Launch X431 Cayenne 958…..everything went well, but of course I ended up doing more than I was supposed to and very last coding faced up the headlight control unit (I enabled fog light support, then disabled it) Now I get an error “C11007 Headlight control unit not calibrated” and clearing code doesn’t do anything.
I am guessing the answer is no but perhaps someone knows the fix besides dealer? There is Headlight Control module reset function, but I haven’t found anything with calibration.
Well both left and right headlight modules are not accessible, Launch x431 can’t find them. At this point I am guessing headlights need to be coded in.
1st Suggestion:
2011 MY.
The items to code to switch the start/stop button into “last mode” behavior are in the “Air Conditioning” module. Search the items with “start” in their names, code them as followed and that’s it.
2nd suggestion:
Hello,
In the changelog of the V23.20 version of the X431 module you can see :
Added the following functions for the CAYENNE-2010 system:
1> Added the system test and actual value function for the advanced weight system.
2> Added the system check function for the TPMS system.
3> Added the functions Reset Low Beam Operation Value, Reset High Beam Operation Value, Reset Static Steering Lamp Operation Value, System Exchange, and AHBA Calibration for the left headlamp control unit system.
4> Added the synchronous test function for the right headlamp control unit system.
5> Added the single line test, sleep mode, nominal and actual configuration, wake up line, reset, wake up monitor function for the gateway system.
6> Added adaptation and short-term test for the engine system.
I don’t know how to select the function but it is available.

Update!
Alight so I can access the Central Headlight module, there is Control Unit Replacement then it has 2 options Read and Write. When I click to read it just says read successfully and when I click write it says VIN coded successfully. Doesn’t give me any options to input anything
If I go straight to Special Functions without going to Module itself, there there is just simple stuff Reset oil light, etc but there is no control unit replacement.
Car wasn’t running but I coded other modules fine, so I don’t think it’s the battery.
Answer: If the voltage drops below 12.4v while you are writing to a module, there is a high possibility you can brick it, and that is with any reader, even the PIWIS… I highly recommend you never write to a module without the car running or a charger on the battery. It may work for a few modules but then kill the next.
And to be honest, all the tools are made in China, and the whole Launch company is built on products made in China, so I don’t think that has anything to do with it. Heck, if you buy the MAC Tools version of this scanner, it’s just a re-brand, and all the same, software is used, and all the codes for all the different manufacturers come from the same database.
Question: What are the bummer you are going through. Did you code your BMW with the launch x431?
Answer: No, for BMW had software on PC. Did some minor coding on Lexus with Launch X431, went fine.
Finally! Solved!
Apparently the car is fixed now. The dealer was able to fix both modules. The entire car was reset, so call me stupid but now I have to code things back to where they were with x431 (seatbelt, windows, tailgate beeping, etc).
