How to Repair VW DCM6.2V No Start Issue on Foxflash

Image
  Problem: How do I read and write down a driver in a vw dcm6.2v with foxflash in boot mode, because after installing stage 1 (via OBD) the car does not start and I can’t bet anything? Solution: That situation usually comes from checksum handling or wrong patch area — DCM6.2V is picky. If you can still read and connect to ecu, write original file, test if it starts. If yes, then manually checksum the file and write it back. If it still causes problems solution is not good (bad file). Foxflash don’t have bench or boot protocol for this ECU. You can also take boot read and restore ecu.

Flex Bench Read and Write Process for GM Delco E88 ECM

Image
  Problem: Trying to write a Porsche Continental SDI6 ECU with Flex programmer . It asks for a password. How to get the password? Possible solutions: No password to server. 1). Restart your laptop And try again happened once with me. 2). Had the same issue once with bench, just changed the car model in the list (same protocol but different car model). 3). Or try to read and write via OBD mode. www.iecutool.eu

How to Use Flex to Read and Write GM Delco E88 ECM

Image
  Magic Motorsport Flex newly added some GM Global A Delco ECMs including E88. Here comes the latest review on E88 ECM: For anyone working with the new E88 protocol (this is obd on bench). They arent joking about 3 hours read time. UPDATE: Started again at 13:00 because of a power outage here. It’s been 3,5 hours. First section took about 45 min. Now its on 2nd. It’s at 54% and its 16:33 here. Let’s see how long it will take. Also pro tip: don’t use another programmer while flex is reading, it will crash flex while reading and you can start over again. After read data, send it to MMS tech support. They will add it to the vr server. Once VR becomes available for this ECU version, no user will need to perform a full read again — future operations will take just a few seconds.

CG FC200 Boot Mode Guide for VAG MED17.1 IMMO Off

Image
 The goal is to bypass the immobilizer on a VAG Med17.1 ECU. The initial attempt to connect with CG FC200 programmer in "platform mode" failed, with the software stating, "ECU doesn’t support platform mode." This necessitated a shift to a more involved "boot mode" process, which first requires reading the ECU’s security password. There are 2 versions of boot mode wiring diagrams. First connected the hardware according to a standard wiring diagram for the ME17.1. Upon clicking "Identification," the tool reported that the "ECU doesn’t support platform mode." The solution was to use a "Version 2" connection diagram for boot mode, which requires a physical modification to the ECU’s circuit board. Two resistors must be soldered onto a specific integrated circuit (IC) on the ECU board. The diagram called for two 470-ohm resistors. He has no two 470ohm resistors in hand. Then he used three 150-ohm resistors in ser...
