How To Use MPPS V18 Bootmode Recovery EDC15

But aparently none of them described how to do this exatcly, i mean how to write with mpps in bootmode. Everyone was saying that is “simple, just write in bootmode”, “MPPS can recover almost any EDC15 ECU”, “I’ve done many times” an so on.

I found this very hard to do, and while searching decided that if i succeed to recover i will do a simple instructions how to do it without asking too many dumb questions.

So here it is in very short description, with pictures.

Note: You do this on your own, and i cant be responsible for mistakes you make!

1. Remove the ECU. Warm it a little bit up, there is a sealnt which holds the housing halves pretty strong, so after warming will be easier to open it. Dont heat it too much, just to be hand warm. Here is the picture, this is what you will probably see inside the ECU case.

2. 29F400 Location and bootmode pin 24. For now you have to solder a wire to the pin. To the other end of the wire connect 5k resistor. That’s it for now. Here are the picture of the chip, and the pin to be used.

3. Prepare all the connections to the ecu and MPPS cable as shown on the picture below.

MPPS Cable Pinout: (it’s mpps v12, but out of date; now is mpps v18)

1. Pin16 = +12v

2. Pins 4&5 = Ground

3. Pin 7 = K Line

4. When all done and checked twice, connect your MPPS cable to PC, open software and locate the BOOTMODE wirte function. This was tricky for me, but finally i got to this point and after that everything was a peace of cake. Before connectin the +12v power supply to the proper cable as you have seen in the pictures above. And before connecting the negative wire be sure to ground the bootmode pin 24 thru a 5k resistor, and remove it after aprox 15 seconds, but do not disconnect the ecu and MPPS power connections.

5. Navigate to where you choose brand and choose not VW or Audi etc. but choose GENERIC. I found this Hardly noticable, and found only after a hint in the internet after 16 hours of searching.

After that choose your ECU as stated in the List that opens after you choose GENERIC

6. Click Checksum Open the file that you want to checksum, the open the file that you have read from your car before making any mods. Above the progress bar you will see something written in GREEN color, and you’re good to go. Then click Write, choose the file to write and wait fo a while for the progress bar to reach 100% and you are done, and as happy as i was that i have saved some $$ on buying programmers, or used ECU’s, or sending to a tuner for a fix.

Enjoy!

How to use Kess V2 without “Protocol not compatible with version FW”

I also solved the problem with Kess v2 clone, with error “Protocol not compatible with version FW”. Now the error no longer appears. Cheers!

I am using: Kess v2 clone firmware v4.036 with Ksuite v2.28

The error message: “Protocol not compatible with version FW”

Systems can be: Windows 7 and Windows XP….both OK

Here are the instructions:

Solution for Kess v2 FW protocol error

Here, I would like to show you step by step how to use your Kess v2 without the error “Protocol not compatible with version FW”.

To do this, you first have to uninstall the already installed software and the drivers.

Afterwards we start with step:

1. Disable Internet connection
2. Install the K-Suite 2.06 Full Version including drivers (Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 SP1 and USBDEVICEDRV 1.00.011). The Kess device is not yet connected to your computer.
3. After successful installation, K-Suite will open automatically (no error message may occur during installation, otherwise you will have to repeat the installation). Select the desired language and exit the program.
4. Now you have to connect the Kess device via USB and wait for the automatic driver installation. (K-Suite not yet opens)
5. Right-click the K-Suite icon to open the file path. (Win-XP: right-click on the K-Suite icon, then open the properties, in the lower left you can open the file path) Marks the entire content in the folder and deletes it.
6. Opens the “Token Reset Folder” and copies the entire contents (it is the data from K-Suite 2.08). Now you change back to the already installed file path (here you just deleted all files) and insert the copied records. In addition, you copy the help folder (can be found on the supplied CD) and also paste it into the already installed file path. Now you can close all windows and start K-Suite.

The Kess device will now be updated. This may take a little time. As soon as the main menu of K-Suite opens, version 2.08 should be visible. The message “Protocol not compatible with version FW” should no longer appear. If everything was successful, you can close K-Suite again and install the updates (2.10, 2.12, … etc) one at a time. The Kess device can remain connected to the computer. The important thing is that you only install the updates. Not the drivers (Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 SP1 and USBDEVICEDRV 1.00.011).

PS: If the error message “External exception EEFFACE” appears, you must close the program. Now disconnects the Kess device, reinstalls the version at which this error occurred. This time with the USBDEVICEDRV 1.00.011, but without Microsoft Visual C ++ 2005 SP1. After installation reconnect the Kess device and start K-Suite.

I currently have the version 2.32 Ksuite, and it works perfectly.

Hopefully this guide is understandable.

EDC17 ECU chip tuning FAQ

How to tunig/programming EDC17 ecu chip?Here have some different solutions for most details help the beginners.

Here we go...

What is Electronic Diesel Control (EDC)?

EDC (Electronic Diesel Control) is definitely an electronic engine-management technique for diesel engines.

The new EDC17 is usually used incredibly flexibly in any vehicle segment on each of the world??s markets. The Bosch EDC17 determines the injection parameters for eachcylinder, creating specific adaptations if needed. Additionally to controlling the precise timing and quantity of injection, exhaust gas recirculation, and manifold stressregulation, in addition, it presents a big number of choices like the manage of particulate filters or systems for decreasing nitrogen oxides.

What ECU chip tuning tool fits for EDC17 tuning?

Here, you have 5 major alternatives.

1.KESS V2 (€162)- most popular

KESS v2 is usually a strong ECU tuner with reasonably priced value. KESS V2 tuning kit covers all major brands and protocols including Line, CAN, EDC17 and MED17 and Ford J1850. It has some distinguish capabilities that other ECU tuning tool did not have, like Verify in the battery voltage in real-time, Complete Recovery function in case ofissues, Automatic correction of the Checksum, Boot-Loader mode supported, Management of the programming counters, Scan Tool function to remove DTC, Several alternatives of reading/writing speed, Alternative to write full file/section with the map and full integration with ECM Titanium ECU programming software program. The device can not be upgraded and must be installed on Windows XP operating program.

KTAG also ok?

With KESS V2 you programming directly through the OBD port of the vehicle, while with Ktag (Ktag 2.13) you need to take apart the ECU and open it, after you can make the read/write operation.

Many ECU has the advantage that can be read and write from OBD port (so kess is perfect), but there are lot ECU that need to disassemble from the car and open and this is the case for all the ECU that need to be programmed with Jtag, BDM and Boot protocols, so KTAG is needed also.

So, kess is a ECU programming tool that is perfect for OBD use, while KTag is perfect for Jtag, BDM and all the Boot application (tricore and ST10).

Kess v2 buying guide:

There many different versions in the market. But Kess V2 firmware V4.036 is the best quality for ecu tuning via OBD, while Ktag for Jtag, BDM and all the Boot application. So, the best solution should be: Kess v2 + Ktag tuning kit:

It's a standalone ECU chip tuning that work devoid of unnecessary boxes and cables by straight plugged into connector. The software program must be installed on Windows XP2 operating system.

5.DS17 Infineon Tricore Boot Reader (€86)- full car listed

DS17 Infineon Tricore Boot Reader help EDC17/MED17/ME17/MEV17/MEVD17/PCF2.1/SD13/SD14/SD16/SID208/SID807 programming. Normally named as bootmode this port may be the Infineon pendent for the Motorola/Freescale BDM port. In contrast for the BDM port, whose pins only have this purpose, the bootmode is carried out over 1 on the CAN busses with theprocessor. For the reason that new assembled ECUs are programmed over this port, Bosch has put it on a 14 pin pad array. It appears like the BDM port but works completelydistinct. The power can also be supplied more than the probe, but is spite to the BDM system the voltage will not be manually switchable but automatically controlled by the DS17.
