M1, M2 Buttons and startup

spdrcrgtr · 12-09-2021, 12:41 PM

Something annoying I have dealt with since I owned my M4 and Im hoping someone could help.

When I start my car, it goes into effect mode + sport suspension + transmission engine modes

Then I have to press my M1 button to get it to all the softest/lowest settings (for daily driving).

I'd like the car to start up with those settings without me having to press my M1 button.

How do I do this?

Thank you in advance!

no way to do this in my knowledge - many have Hoped for it....

at least they provide the M1 and M2, so that it is a single push - most cars have them separately

Well, that sucks ... I mean it's not a huge deal, just a bit annoying.

Sooooo...I have a solution. I've purchased a CAN signal duplicator that when the device sees a KL15 signal (ignition on), it sends an "M1" button activation ~.5sec after (for aprox .3sec). The device's only job is to transmit that signal on the CANbus once it sees ignition on.

Do you have a link to this CAN signal duplicator doohickey? Sounds like it can be used for other automation too, no?
