 FormulaFlash user report: Dodge RAM 2019 5.7 with GPEC2A ECM. Read ECM in boot mode. Tuner unlock with Formula Flash. Use formulaflash to perform an unlock, and then program it using HP Tuners. The tuner performed the unlock patch manually for him, and he only applied the formula; however, formula flash does perform the checksum. It is good for unlocking E90 GM and GPEC2A Jeep/Dodge units.

 The Magic Motorsport Korhex boot glitch adapter has several different MASKs: A, B, C, D, E, F, G. Which ECUs does each of these MASKs support? Check here. A Mask: Delphi ETC3 B Mask: MG1CS032 C Mask: for feature (not available yet) D Mask: MG1CA920 E Mask: MD1CP001 F Mask: MD1CS003 G Mask: MD1CP007/ MG1CS047 What if some MASKs are missing? No problem — you can 3D print some MASKs by yourself, like this. Even if you don’t have a MASK at all, it’s still fine. The Magicmotorsport Help section shows you the exact point on the processor where the KORHEX probe needs to be positioned. Just follow the instructions!

  Problem: Tried to unlock a Mercedes MD1CP007 ECU with Flex + Korhex programmer. What concerns me is the LED status: Software shows Connected Antenna: Ready Voltage: 19 V But the RGB LED near the USB/power connector keeps flashing red continuously According to the Korhex manual, flashing red indicates an error condition related to voltage or antenna, while green means ready to use. This is contradictory, because the software shows that the antenna is ready and the voltage is present, but the hardware LED still indicates an error. Does this indicate a hardware/firmware/power issue? Solution: The red light will flash until you open a protocol that needs Korhex. Once you open a protocol that needs Korhex, the light will become green and when it is actually glitching it’ll become blue. That’s normal until you open the protocol for glitching and then it will change to green. It actually needs to see a locked ECU on id for it to even activate, If it does an ID and kn...

 Korhex: New Support for Bosch MD1CS069 and MD1CS089. Flex version 8.26.0.0 is now available Unlock Bosch MD1CS069 and MD1CS089 ECUs without working on the PCB. With the latest Flex update, Korhex can now also be used on ECUs installed on commercial and industrial vehicles, accessing the TriCore TC299 processor through a dedicated procedure. The new solution allows the procedure to be carried out without working on the ECU PCB, simplifying connection operations and reducing working time. Using the reference positioning mask as indicated in the operating manual, you can identify the glitch point and connect Korhex easily and accurately. Once the connection is established, you can choose whether to complete the procedure directly in Boot Glitch mode or perform the Unlock and then continue programming in Bench mode. No work on the PCB, fewer steps, and greater operational flexibility. To use the protocol, an FLS0.20 license or the Flex Full FLS0.5 configuration is re...

  Autotuner Peugeot 208 1.6 THP 200 Bosch MEVD17.4.2 ECU tuning review: This wasn’t an OBD-and-done job. The ECU arrived by post and required direct boot-mode access, meaning the ECU had to be opened, connected directly to the PCB and read at processor level before any work could begin. That is exactly the kind of work we increasingly handle in-house rather than sending ECUs elsewhere. Vehicle details 2014 Peugeot 208 GTI Engine: 1.6 THP Petrol Standard power: 200 bhp / 275 Nm Transmission: Manual ECU: Bosch MEVD17.4.2 Read type: Full Read Once the ECU arrived, it was opened carefully and connected directly using boot programming equipment. A full ECU read was taken first, giving us the original data and recovery information before any modified calibration was written. Calibration completed * Custom Stage 1 calibration * Soft rev limiter removal * Relevant DTC calibration * Full original ECU backup * Checksum correction * Boot-mode programming * ECU resealed and p...

  Problem: I need to perform an "immo off" on a 2010 Chevrolet Aveo with a Delphi MT80 ECU. I’ve used the FoxFlash pinout, but I can’t get it to connect. Can anyone give me a hand? Here is the clue. Suggestions: 1). Increase voltage, give power supply at 14.5V. 2). Use a 120-ohm resistor between CANS. 3). In bench mode, set it to 3.3V, not 5V. 4). Some people use the pinout from KTAG/KESS3 with pin lift from Tricore MCU. Then, you can make the connection and do a full read. 5). Some also use godiag tricore cable to do a boot connection. It works fine. Example: Chevrolet Aveo T255 1.4 Delphi MT80 FoxFlash + Goodiag adapter

 A major technological breakthrough has landed on your AutoTuner Tool ! AutoTuner is thrilled to announce world-first, exclusive Bench mode support for the Denso VEA Gen2 (SPC5777M) ECU family ! A Look Back: In 2018, AutoTuner was the first to release support for the initial Volvo Denso ECUs (SH72546) equipping VEA engines. At that time, newer Denso ECUs powered by the Freescale SPC5777M processor, known as Gen2, were already present on the market, but remained unreadable/unwriteable since late 2017. Today, we have officially found the solution and brought full exclusive Bench capability to your Tool! To streamline your workflow, this release also introduces an OBD patch following a one-time Bench unlock . Note: For vehicles equipped with a Secure Gateway (SGW), we advise working in Bench mode to avoid long reading and writing procedures. Supported Lineup (Denso VEA Gen 2 Freescale SPC5777M — Volvo Drive-E Range): ECU Variants Covered: ECM-EAA, ECM-EBA, ECM-HAA, E...
