Model S 2013 US -> EU conversion

[remyygaa]

US cars need both the taillights/stoplight AND turn signal to be lit in order for the correct feedback to be sent back to BCM.
I did it by modification of the boards inside the taillights.
alternatively you can just wire a relay/transistor that grounds the feedback pin with control of the relay wired to turn signal signal.

thx for info

Hi! Where to download gwxfer? Does it not work on firmwares <2021?

Assuming you got a terminal, the gateway might be locked. Also, I think they changed the way gwxfer worked at some point in 2020, you might only be able to change a key at a time, but I'm not sure.

@M0rpH3x so what would be the steps to convert USA MS facelift to EU after replacing tail lights with from USA to EU? Changing config parameters euvehicle and rear fog lights and then X? What is this X part? Just changin these parameters only adds rear fog light to the dashboard but it’s not working and tail lights work “american” way. P.S. I am using LOKI for this.

Sorry for the late reply. You need to reprogram the body controller. This is done with toolbox. Essentially there is an option in toolbox that says "program body controller", or something like that. In order for that to be effective, the configuration of the car must be correct, i.e., euvehicle -> 1. Then, the body controller is reprogrammed to send the right signals to the tail lights and the rear fog light, and everything works as it should.

Alternatively, you can play with wires and all that. It might be easier, in the sense that there are no "software roadblocks", but I find that solution way less elegant.

I have no idea what LOKI is...
