Dension Gateway 500 / 500S Enabler for BMW Vehicles
- 1 Year Warranty
Dension Gateway Enabler for BMW vehicles - gen2bme
To operate the Gateway 500S, Gateway 500S BT, or Gateway 500 product, certain options have to be enabled in the car audio system, which might not be set by default in all BMW vehicles. Enabling these protocols normally requires a car diagnostics tool (e.g. Autologic) and the expertise of a BMW specialized workshop.
The GEN tool provides these specific enabling/disabling diagnostics functions only through the ODB 2 interface, thus making it a small and affordable device to help the installation/removal of the Gateway product.
Features:
- Easy to use enabler
- Enables Gateway 500S, Gateway 500S BT, or Gateway 500 functions without an expensive professional diagnostic tool
- Works with the vast majority of MOST™ system BMW vehicles through the ODB 2 interface
- Automatically starts and codes
- The system settings remain untouched – might be modified if a diagnostic tool is used
- No difficult setting or coding is required
- Includes activation of phone functions – optional*
- Disable function is also useful when taking the car to a service station
- The tool binds itself to the vehicle on first use – can not be used in another car after installation
- KMP3 text (track info) will only be activated if the vehicle software is up to date

If vehicle has any faults underlying then the Enabler tool will not operate. We cannot accept Return on this product if it has been connected in the vehicle. Despite all efforts and several tests Dension cannot guarantee that by using the GEN tool there is no need for a professional diagnostics tool to enable the features on certain vehicles. The GEN tool can replace the enabling functions of a professional diagnostics tool in many cases, but it does not replace the skills of a professional installer. |
Gateway Compatibility:
- Gateway 500S BT (GW52MO1, GW52MO2)
- Gateway 500S (GW53MO1, GW53MO2)

![]() | Car information and entertainment systems can be complex networks, so we always recommends that you have your installation carried out by a qualified installer. If you wish Car Communications to carry out the installation at an address of your choice anywhere in the UK please select from addons above before adding to cart. Our products are professionally installed at your home or workplace anywhere in the UK by our own network of accredited engineers. The installation will vary slightly depending on which optional items you have also purchased. But in each case you will have a dock cable to connect your iPod. Your installer will ask and advise as to the best place to situate this in your vehicle. The Gateway itself is small and will be installed securely out of sight behind the dash. Dension products are all designed so that there is no need to cut cables. |
