  Problem: I couldn’t read EDC17c74 with Flex programmer on bench i had read that ecu one year ago no problem. or maybe my flex box is the problem? Solution: Check if wires are not broken. It may stop working when wires were broken. EDC17 requires pin 4 in slot A as we can see in photo he have it on 2. It’s user error, in pinout you can see it will tell you A-4 because A-4 is terminal 15 not like A123 that are terminal 30. Move ignition pin 2 to pin 4.

  Problem: On ECU VAG Simos PCR2.1 I accidentally wrote wrong file with foxflash over bench. And now I lost communication with it. I made backup of eeprom and flash. Now I just try every method to write again flash. I tried with ktag boot mode but have acces only to eeprom. And with Fox Flash I have error REMOVE AND GIVE POWER. Does anyone know potential solution? Possible solutions 1). Try to turn on the power supply in a few seconds as he asks you to. Some users turned the power on after a few seconds as he wanted and then it started. Also using foxflash make just set voltage to 14v , they will not communicate under 13.5v. ( see picture he used 13.4v). 2). Try this and write the All file back. 3). If tried all above and still cannot recover in boot mode, the ecu is bricked and will not live, look for a new one and turn off immo. They don’t have to match you strictly by number, you can certainly preflea it with an odyssey that suits you. Lucky for you the PC...

  Problem: It’s a Ford S-Max with Delphi DCM35 ECU. MPPS, KESS and Foxflash all read ID. But they all have problem reading flash. Kess showing wrong security code. Foxflash showing error SilentKey. The car has before made stage1 by someone else its possible he protected it from reading now or its obd impossible this ECU? I’ve read several 3.5 DCM readings in various Ford MPPS and KESS Fox models and never had a problem. What causes the silent key error? Possible reason and solution: 1). Ecu has been locked by a previous tuner. Load an original file and start from there. 2). Doing PCM update with Forscan beta or IDS. After that it will be ok. 3). I had the same problem. Write it with Autotuner , but failed, so i recovered it with MPPS, but with an other tool the security code changes automatically on OBD and Bench. So must go for BDM. It is blocked because it is writen with an other tool via OBD, you need the same tool which Stage1 was done or BDM it. 4). Try to use...

 POWERSUPPLY INFO! Since this is asked quite a lot frequently when it comes with foxflash programmer so the post here is about this power supply issue. Why? Instability or undervoltage can cause programming interruptions, corrupted reads/writes, or worse — bricking the ecu (so dont underestimate this, you dont want extrabricked ecus because of your not providing good voltage and amps ). remember that undervoltage is the main reason why you will fail on some ecus, not the tool itself. undervoltage can be fatal in some cases and that ecu is not anymore recoverable. ALSO keep in mind that overpowering ecu is just as bad as undervoltage. you will end up killing the ecu , so play in area that is considered safe 12v-14.5v say tops. WHAT YOU ACTUALLY NEED FOR BENCH ECU WORK? So when doing bench programming of ECUs like MD1, the ECU needs a stable automotive-like 12 V DC supply. It usually won’t get enough or stable power from a simple USB (no way) adapter — you want ...

  Problem: Peugeot 508 1.5 Blue hdi 96 kw with MD1CS003 ECU. Performing adblue in progress need info: Allready have benched read full backup using Foxflash programmer . File alllready modifed by tuner. Before i write I need to know do i need to reset adblue? I am not able to do it because of DTC U010E Emissions Control Can Network (Urea Pump Gauge Module) Can I upload write allready modfied file in this case and do i need to disconnect the module later. Does somone have experience with this to help? PS IS IT VOLTAGE GOOD!? 13.6 V Solution: on MD1 ECUs ALLWAYS need to disconnect module. On md1cs003 we always disconnect urea pump and module or If is a new type of fusebox i disconnect 30a fuse, diode and relay. Resets better do before write mod but not always i do, but sometimes i do reset after if still urea light on dash flashing.
