Has anyone successfully managed to enter engineering mode on the Ioniq 5? The usual tricks to enter it don't appear to work on this model.

nope. we have been trying also. the problem is with doing the dealer mdoe / engineering mode, with the volume lvl trick 7-3-1 , is that we need to confirm with the right knob. and ioniq 5 doesnt have right knob.
so its probably a touch on the screen somewhere

Does the 7-3-1 not work when touching the screen to the right of the "update" button in settings like in the 2020 Ioniq that doesnt have the right nob?

Haven't tried. I will ask some ioniq 5 users to try

 

[SonicSpinner]

Have just tried this without success. The layout of the text is slightly different to the above although the update button is the same position

The ioniq 5 touch press must be placed somewhere else I guess. I guess tmots trial and error

 

[SonicSpinner]

To get out of engineering mode it may ask you to press another non-existent button...

Did you manage to get in the ioniq5 engineering menu?

 

[SonicSpinner]

So let's say one manages to enter "engineering mode". Then what? Just curious. Sounds dangerous and fun!

It's like going into the control panel of a windows machine . You might find small thing you can tweak and other stuff which you must not touch

 

[SonicSpinner]

No, just joking that getting out again might not be obvious given the difficulty of getting in.

Haha

 

[SonicSpinner]

It's on the title bar (i.e. the one where it says "Software Version") for newer cars without a right knob

Can you post a picture? Also I wonder if it's different from Linux based units too.
Thanx

 

[SonicSpinner]

it has to be somewhere . i have seen engineering mode on kia ev6. but thats because it has a right knob.
they both use the same software anyway.
but someone must have tried with a " no right knob " dealer mode on other models

 

[SonicSpinner]

another thing. since the june update they have closed down the usual enginering method access.
so now only dealer mode is available.
and thats the one we need to find.

@SonicSpinner I get a password popup, using this recipe:

Dealer Mode (Diagnostics, Location, Media, Radio, Smart Pure Air Version Info/Update)

1. Press the Setup button or choose All menus -> Settings
2. Choose System Info
3. In a quick sequence set volume using left knob to level 0, then to level 7 and press the right knob, then set volume to level 3 and press the right knob, then set volume to level 1 and press the right knob
4. Password is 2400
5. Choose Send

In the IONIQ 5 the "right knob" is the up/down lever, which can also be pressed (beside the tune text). However password 2400 is not recognized, also not 2900.

Well done!

Try the pass 0625 or 0428

 

[SonicSpinner]

@SonicSpinner I tried those, and also tried the passwords in this post. No luck, also not with the 24 hour time as password.

I might have gotten it wrong try 0652 instead of 0625

 

[SonicSpinner]

No luck with 0652, last 4 digits software version, 1200-2400

Dammit. They must have changed it on the August version. Coz in the July version, the 0625 worked on kia ev6

 

[SonicSpinner]

@SonicSpinner I have your 210723 version and 0625 and 0652 is not working. Also the time as password I tried. I did not try the date (18 October), e.g. 1810 or 1018.

Aaargh. That's frustrating

 

[SonicSpinner]

Considering the update dump does not seem to be encrypted, which is at least a start, maybe the code and the logic can be found.
At 26GB, you are going to need to study the structure a lot to find it though, and some parts might be encrypted anyway.

Been there done that mate.
The important files are encrypted.

 

[SonicSpinner]

I'm in now...thanks! In RHD car the buttons are reversed, and you press the up/down button in following selecting the volume. 7-3-1

The pass code 0428 worked for me. View attachment 36249

Wait i didn't get it. Can you please record a video. Thanx

 

[SonicSpinner]

I made a short video for anyone struggling, was kinda hard filming with one hand and using my second currently somewhat broken hand, but here we go:

Good job!
Thanx. Is there is anything under the autotest menu

 

[SonicSpinner]

Screw it, went and looked. There's only one entry:
Secure Console: enable

ok thanx buddy. i suspect the same options as in the dealer mode in ioniq 38,8 etc.
but i wonder if there are differences in menus between the 2 passwords.
anyways thanx for the efforts mate!

 

[SonicSpinner]

Screw it, went and looked. There's only one entry:
Secure Console: enable

Ta daaa... now what is the pass?

0428
0652
0625

 

[SonicSpinner]

Im try to do the wifi, for android auto, and apple car play without sucess.

does it have wifi module?

 

[SonicSpinner]

check here, one posted some details...



The MFG Firmware status:unloaded FTM: stopped, tells my guts that they deactivated it for now, fits the rumours that they have a software issue at the moment (what ever FTM and MFG stands for)

At least the wifi modul has a mac address, gives me hope

couldnt the mac adresse be from the bluelink modem?
