  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.

  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...
