Please try any of the following solutions:
  1. k-tag communication error: please check power connections- 0x100B
- First change your 12v external adapter if work ok or else fault in k-tag
- After installation of software you have to copy help file to the installation directory, that's why I access to alientech database when click read.
Video guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hs5LAfNhmd4

  1. In the similar method as above.
    In this case as a power source use the original transformer that brings the ktag that also does not reach 12v.
@eltoke (cartechnology.co.uk) feedback.

  1. Try with independent power supply to ECU instead of KTAG cable.

  1. Sure is not voltage problem, I did always this ecu with 12V 1000 mA.

  1. Rework your Hardware Ktag PCB.
@DK Veteran's option

  1. If you use clone ktag, this ecu have been remapped another tuner via other tool..
    Yes your ktag not read because ecu's file has did changed so ktag is not connect ecu.
    Use Another tool. Same like x17-kess-fgtech-cmd and more...
  2. Have you checked the right position of the wire inside your DB15? maybe this pics can help you to check

8.Or just solder boot pin, maybe bad connection.
happened to my once or twice.

  1. Pin 3 +15 = 12v pin 2 = gnd. connect to these with bench power supply or similar instead of using K-tag to power up ECU, leave everything else the same.
    I have had to do this a few times and that's with genuine k-tag too.
    Also check wire on both Boot pins.

Good luck!

EDC17C46 read and write, any tested ECU programmer via OBD?

Purpose: clone an edc17c46 ECU

Ideal ECU programmer: Clone at cheap price

Review 1.
KTM bench ECU edc17c46 read and write flash + EEPROM ok

Review 2.
Ktag. 7.020 clone no Problem… Read (Backup) and write.

Review 3.
Kess genuine read VR / Write no problem
Kess clone no read / Write no problem, file found online or from friends.
Review 4.
Mpps = shit
Ktag read and write very well also clone

Review 5.
Fgtech original is ok

Review 6. Kess and KTAG v2.23 are working good with edc17c46. VR doesn’t work.

Question: just looking for EU Ktag or Kess now and see most of the website have China one.
purple PCB is the one I should look for right?
Answer: purple PCB can be 100% sure it builds the EU clone. China has a green or red PCB.
But remember, full reworked green Kess V2 from China also works well. And it is a low budget clone for start business.
Like this one: Best + most popular
kess v2 5.017 2.24 red clone ecu

Kess Red Pcb
Price: about €82 to the European country.
