PSA MD1CS003 Read with Autotuner After Flex Unlock

Image
 Here is a user’s experience with Autotuner reading after a boot glitch unlocked by Flex . "I tried to test an Autotuner reading after a boot glitch with Flex MD1CS003 +2021 0281 037 200 It works perfectly. I had already tried before, it didn’t work but I understood why. If you unlock with Flex + a file mod, AT no longer recognizes it. But on this calculator I simply unlocked with flex, and did a read test with Autotuner to test and it was read. What you can deduce, Autotuner can read if your file is original (just unlocked) . But if you unlock + file mod, AT will just ID but no read, it will try to read with INITIALIZATION IN PROGRESS INITIALIZATION IN PROGRESS INITIALIZATION IN PROGRESS READ ERROR"

Flex Boot Glitch Unlock Fiat Ducato MD1CS069 ECU

Image
  Magic Motorsport Flex boot glitch unlock new user report: "Fiat Ducato Bosch MD1CS069 locked ECU. Md1cs069 working with two resistors 2.2 in serial. or take 10 resistors with 0R5. A lot of people wrote that they can’t successfully connect the md1cs069 and there is no concrete answer why it doesn’t work, that’s why I made this post to work on 4.4 ohms as well as 3.3 and 5 ohms, I had 2.2 ohms from the airbag, most electronics guys have them so it can be done like that. I did an unlock in the boot glitch and later read and wrote in the bench."
