PCMTuner Failed to Write EDC17C84 via OBD?

Image
  Problem: I have a problem with pcmtuner flash . I can read but can't write EDC17c84 via OBD. Solution: Remove ecu and read/write again on bench module 71. If car not start by module 71 bench mode, the problem can be the checksum. After fixing checksums, it works on bench module 71. If not working, try unplug T° engine sensor and try if not succes Wait until T°10 and retry.

PCMTuner Error "Process Has Exited" Solution

Image
  Problem: How to solve this please? After installation and activation of both pcmtuner and pcmtuner flash (a new tool). I have no response when trying to open pcm flash. Error process has exited. Solution: Reinstall with no antivirus and firewall, try open PCMtuner flash directly, you will also get this error IF the ecu is not supported or linked from your pcmtuner app. If it's windows 10 the real-time antivirus is activated every time you restart the system.

FoxFlash vs PCMTuner

Image
 What is the difference between foxflash and pcmtuner? I know Foxflash can do a lot more then PCMTuner, but is there anything PCMTuner can do that Foxflash can't? They both serve the same purpose. PCMTuner flash consists of 60 modules for individual ECUS mostly OBD. It can do BSL and bench on a select Few. Foxflash covers Hundreds of Manufacturer ECU's and TCU's in OBD, BENCH, BOOT, BDM/JTAG. It is a much more powerful tool. They both are good tools but in different ways. PCMtuner has a lot of obd modules for Asian etc, but cannot do any BDM Jtag work or Agri and plant like foxflash. Foxflash has more new protocols and with the possibility of reading TCUs than pcm. But it does not have tuner account and tuning service for tuners. Each tool has their own capabilities, no all tools can do read/write perfectly. Buy both, PCMtuner has very good coverage but can only do certain bench jobs (edc17/med17/mev17) and limited boot. It depends on your needs, no one to

KT200 is Better than PCMTuner?

Image
 Question: I've been looking at KT200 and the pcmtuner . Is the kt200 considerably better or just better, more stable than pcm tuner? Answer: They both are good tools but in different ways. PCMtuner has a lot of obd modules for Asian etc, but cannot do any BDM Jtag work or Agri and plant like KT200 . KT200 has more new protocols and with the possibility of reading TCUs than pcm. But it does not have tuner account and tuning service for tuners. pcm tuner has better technical support and no annual fee. kt200 uses an annual subscription model for updates. Each tool has their own capabilities, no all tools can do read/write perfectly. Buy both, PCMtuner has very good coverage but can only do certain bench jobs (edc17/med17/mev17) and limited boot. It depends on your needs, no one tool is ever enough. The 2 machines are complemented. The more tools, the more work you can perform.

PCMTuner vs Fetrotech Tool vs MPM ECU Tool

How to Read Mazda CX-5 Denso ECU with PCMTuner?

Image
 Question: Mazda CX-5 2.2 diesel 2018, 150HP …can read with PCMTuner ? I don't see any info in the instructions. Solution: It reads via OBD. OBD does not have instructions. Find your OBD port. And read with pcm tuner via module 10. Also if starline alarm fitted disconnect alarm module behind dash. If your ecu is on table and not in car, then as the tuner you will have to find correct pinouts. http://www.pcmtuner.org/pcmtuner-mazda-denso-ecu-pinout-obd-and-bench/ http://www.pcmtuner.org/pcmtuner-mazda-rf7n-ecu-pinout/

PCMTuner "Checksum are Correct" vs "Checksum was Corrected"

Image
  Question: I try to write a modified file on pcmtuner module 71 and ask me to confirm the checksum. Normally it said in the module 71 can do flash checksum. But why is ask for continue if the checksum is not correct? Good file blue symbol and Yellow modified file. Solution: "Checksum is correct."= checksum was ok "Checksum was corrected." = the other wasnt so software corrected it. pcmtuner flash corrected the checksum and you can procceed. Press OK to correct checksum. One checksum was ok, the other wasnt so software corrected it. When software is modified always it needs to fix checksum. If you write the original no need to fix checksum!

PCMTuner Nissan March ME 17.9.55 ECU Pinout

Image
  Problem: Can I read Nissan March 2016 1.6 petrol engine ME 17.9.55 ecu with pcmtuner ? I tried module 71 but it is failing. Solution: pcmtuner ME17.9.55 ecu pinout use labels not colors. try GPT0 and GPT1 on pins marked yellow (any order may swap later), but please power everything off and restart PCM tuner and app before trying to make ID, if not ID then swap GTP wires and try again. If still failed, open ecu and check what TC17xx fitted, power on bottom row different and of course GPTs read password after ID to as this may not work like EDC17/MED17 automatic password.

PCMTuner Mercedes EDC17CP01 Skipping 14000 – 1FFFF?

Image
  Problem: What problem? I try to read Mercedes C320cdi edc17cp01 ecu with pcm tuner. Skipping when I upload a modified file to pcmtuner , the ignition turns on and off continuously. Solution: Calibration area so skips other parts of memory as informed, its normal, the problem is your file. Between 14000–1FFFF is otp it's the Service area. In module 71 it skips OTP area as this area is the part that can only be read but never rewritten. Ask someone else to do your file remap. You can Set this in settings when a complete write is Necessary. You can find settings when you click on write a settings screen opens.

PCMTuner PSA EDC17C60 Car Not Start After Writing Solution

Image
 Here comes the problem: Finally got my edc17c60 writing with pcmtuner flash , but car doesn't start after 2nd attempt. Citoren C4 1.6 blue HDi 2016 the first reading was made in bench module 71. Solution: PSA EDC17C60 is tprot. You need to do manual tprot change to file before writing https://www.iecutool.com/service/pcmtuner-psa-edc17c50-manual-tprot-off.html You have to Tprot Ori file too if you want to write back. Feedback: Solved. Wrote original file and wrote back the tuned file with checked use optimizations.

2 Methods to Read VW Audi DSG Gearbox with PCMTuner

Image
 Question before entering: How to build DSG connector for EE & flash read/ write on PCMtuner ? I have built connector as in photos, but it’s not easy to find relay with 720 ohm resistance, i used 320 ohm relay coil resistance to enable L- line power auto control, does it affect the PCM tuner unit? I will try Tactrix open port, also is it necessary to add 120 ohm on parallel for can L&H . Solution: Your pcmtuner has this control circuitry already hence the message would you like to control l line automatically!! The only requirement for dsg on bench is to provide 1 X 12v permanent power hence using a breakout cable ( godiag gt107 gearbox adapter ). There are 2 ways to bulid connectors to read DSG gearbox mirco and eeprom for cloning purposes: 1st method is to read on bench using external power supply (gt107) and it works perftectly. gt107 breakout of gt105 has switched and permanents. With gt107 you need to be able to switch power manually, gt107 has switch. Y

Can PCMTuner be Used as Passthru J2534 for ODIS Xentry GDS etc?

Image
 Has anyone tested pcmtuner on xentry software for Mercedes Benz? Yes, PCMTuner tested working as a J2534 passthru device for Mercedes. You need the version of software called XENTRY Pass Thru. pcm tuner does not work with MB SD C4/C5 standard OpenShell version (XDOS). But w203 and w211 older not all works because they need a multiplexer. 2005 upper all works like with tactrix openpoprt 2.0. People has tested it but with older cars not connect with all modules. This is a known issue with j2534 passthru. J2534 doesn't work with older k line cars full stop. The passthru cannot use Vediamo 5 as well, only version 5 because vediamo 5 doesn't support Passthru. For 2005- up Mercedes normal troubleshooting and diagnosis, though, it rocks. Read also: Can PCMTuner be Used as Passthru J2534 for ODIS Xentry GDS etc?
