How to Clone Smart 450 BCM Using Xhorse Multi Prog

 In this article, we will explore the process of cloning a Smart 450 Body Control Module (BCM) using the Xhorse Multi Prog tool. The goal is to read and transfer data from the original BCM to a replacement unit, ensuring seamless functionality.

Step 1: Preparing the BCM

The first step involves connecting the Multi prog tool to the BCM:

Pinout Identification — The BCM uses a 4-wire connection (power, ground, and two data lines).

Tool Connection — The Multiprog is attached to the BCM, ensuring proper contact with the pins.

Step 2: Reading the Original BCM Data

Read the data from the original BCM:

  • Reading EEPROM and Flash — The tool extracts data from both the EEPROM and Flash memory of the BCM.
  • Verification — The Multiprog automatically performs a verification check to ensure the data is read correctly.

Key Observations:

  • The BCM contains a Motorola 912 256 chip, which is unsecured (not encrypted), making the cloning process straightforward.
  • The Chip ID (processor identifier) is visible, confirming compatibility.

Step 3: Writing Data to the New BCM

After successfully reading the original data, the next step is transferring it to the replacement BCM:

  1. Writing EEPROM and Flash — The same data is written to the new BCM.
  2. Automatic Verification — The tool cross-checks the written data to ensure accuracy.

Step 4: Testing and Final Steps

Once the cloning is complete:

  • The replacement BCM should function identically to the original.

This process is efficient, taking only a few minutes, and works well due to the unsecured Motorola chip. For those attempting this, referencing online pinout diagrams is essential for a smooth workflow.
