ZCS Electronic Storage Locations
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 136 other vehicles, including the 2008 BMW 760Li, 2008 BMW 650i, 2007 BMW Z4, 2007 BMW X5, and 2007 BMW X3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
A master copy of the ZCS is stored in the vehicle electronically to provide the coding software a source for retrieval. The ZCS code is stored in the Instrument cluster or EKM and redundantly in the EWS module on vehicles produced from 1/95.
On vehicles that did not have a diagnostic link to the cluster (E36/5 and E36/7 up to 9/98) the ZCS was only stored in the EWS.
The ZCS code may be read out and printed using the DISplus/MoDiC coding software.
