 Here is the official list of known ECU’s that do not work /problematic in pcmtuner or pcm-flash Bench mode 71. MED17.5.5 TC1766 UDS (high TPROT for TC1766) MED17.1 TC1796 UDS (high TPROT for TC1796) EDC17CP14 TC1796 TPROT11 (high TPROT for TC1796) EDC17CP20 TC1796 TPROT10 UDS (high TPROT for TC1796) EDC17CP51 (Cummins Software) China ME17.8.8TC1728 China MED17.8.10 TC1728 For VAG group module 50 OBD can be used Some EDC17 CP ecu;s require a 10uf/50uf/100uf from ECU to GPT0 Also, dependent on Canbus gateway on vehicle, some ECU’s on the bench may require a 120Kohm resistor between CANH and CANL (pullup on bus) Module 53 known problems All Volvo sid807Evo read and write Up 2012–2013 (ford protocol) after 2013 this ecu has aa new password structure and will not work

 Good news! PCMTuner team has updated the pcmtuner smart dongle. They have removed the encrypted chip, no overheat issue anymore. The old dongle can get hot, but it is normal because it is LED. Check the new usb dongle pcmtuner dongle that comes with pcmtuner device (Item Number SE157) pcmtuner usb dongle (SE157-S) What is the difference between PCMtuner and PCMtuner Dongle? Pcmtuner is a complete hardware device with future expandability linked to the pcmtuner software suite. The dongle allows you to run the pcm flash modules etc.

 Today test pcmtuner with audi a4 edc17cp14. Cannot read on bench and cannot write file by obd. Cannot write file by old It failed to verify checksum when I try to write by obd Solution: EDC17CP14 after 06.2009 has a Anti Tuning Lock, it not open on bench must use OBD module or BSL try both pinouts, if you cannot do bench then OBD or bsl you have no other options. pcmtuner pinout edc17cp14 version 1 and version 2 But for older CP04/CP14 it's is better to use OBD protocol module 50 as EDC17U01/U05/CP04/CP14 use can communication. WITH ECU IN CAR : 1. ID ECU INFORMATION 2. SEARCH VZ-PERFORMANCE FOR VR FILE 3. MODIFY FILE 4. WRITE FILE There is no "vr mode" Vr simply means the file is virtual and not from the actual ECU 1. After identified you have hw and SW numbers 2 go to vz-performance and search for the file you need with the details 3 download the file and modify for tuning etc 4 write file via obd www.iecutool.com

  Question: Hi. I want to know if ecu is supported by pcmtuner . Car Mazda cx7. Answer: Yes module 10 and module 9 — OBD. but as your ecu is on table and not in car, then as the tuner you will have to find correct pinouts. Module 9 Mazda 2nd generation (2008/10–2012/13) 1.3L, 1.5L ZJ/ZY (Mazda2 2011+) 1.5L ZY (Mazda2 US 2011+) 1.6L Z6 (Mazda3 2010+) 1.8L, 2.0L, 2.5L L8/LF/L5 (Mazda6 2008+) 2.0L, 2.3L, 2.5L LF/L3/L5 (Mazda3/5/CX7 2010+) 2.0L LF (Mazda Biante 2013+/2MB) Reading, writing, checksum correction.
