 Possible to clone VAG Delphi DCM6.2V ECU with Autotuner programmer? Yes in boot mode with Autotuner. 1:1 clone ok. Done with Autotuner few days ago no hassle. very easy just swap full backups in boot mode. If you read in boot and you write back the full backup. Need same part number and hw number. Some tools or also if you use different numbers you will face lost long coding because immo data, coding… crypted and arent correct transfered. Magic Motorsport Flex also does it in boot mode. Works 100%. Flex full read immo lock.

  Problem: Tried to read 2006 VW mk5 gti DQ250C gearbox with Autotuner but failed. Is there going to be any update with support for DQ250C? Solution: DQ250C TCU is not supported by Autouner. AT has no support for Cxx. And it reads and writes DQ250 TCU slowly. Use KESS3 or Flex for DQ250C via OBD or bench mode. Feedback: Ended with flex full read and vr read.

  Problem: Foxflash failed to read a BMW MSD80 DME in E92 335i by OBD. Voltage is 13.6V. Solution: Foxflash MSD80 OBD takes long. For example, BMW 325i e93 took 30 min. Make sure you have a battery stabiliser hooked up. Write when quicker. Foxflash doesn’t have bench for this ecu. Remove the ECU out of car, Obd breakout on the bench with pinout and read with OBD protocol. Use godiag breakout box. Do lot of this method. Or read and write it with foxflash in boot mode. Flex and KESS3 are great in these on bench mode.

  Problem: VW Golf R DQ250F. Was writing mod file and Autotuner software gave an error now can’t ID or write (same data transfer failed error). Car is not starting and P light flashing on gearbox. Any solution? Solution: If fail write, never turn ignition off, try again write the modified file, if again fails, than is problem in modified file, and write original file. Always hit write again straight after. When you have such errors by writing a modified file, never turn off the ignition. With the ignition cycling it uses the newer corrupted flash to start and that was it. The ECU is now bricked, and needs to recover it. Flex with frf over OBD or dimsport recovery over OBD, Kess recovery or flash with Odis engenering and frf file!! PCM flash is also very good at recovering in Bench mode. www.iecutool.eu

Connect DSM FBS4 with Launch X431 ECU programmer according to the diagram. Read module information Read EEPROM data Read and save original data. After reading data, exit directly and replace the donor Gearbox that needs to be replaced. Connect the donor Gearbox with Launch X431 ECU programmer . Read module information and read eeprom for the donor gearbox to back up data. Select Personalization. Upload the original gearbox eeprom data and personalize data. Persianization successful. New gearbox needs to be programmed to start. Use MB star device for programming and coding. www.iecutool.eu

  Problem: Still having issues with autotuner , it stuck on reading ECU page and crashed. maybe someone been through this? Solution: Delete Autotuner, re-install software and try new USB cable.

  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 ...
