NefMoto

Hi, what's the best way to setup a work bench outside the cars? I.e what connectors I need ect?

ecu , obd2, psu.

I've got all three.. I've got an old PSU from a computer, What wires am I soldering ect? is there a useful guide I can follow

These threads show you which pins need connecting for a me7.1 and me7.5 respectively:

me7.5 (1.8t) needs an extra pin powering up. Its pretty straight forwards, you only need +12v power, earth and k-line.

Cheers does this work with - 06A906018CG - ME3.8.3 IIRC?

Yes there is a pin out for m3.8.3 around somewhere, but you cannot read that ecu using the k-line, only write it - although nefmoto doesn't work for that, you need mpps

So how would I edit the existing map on the Ecu it's self?

Desolder, read using programmer, resolder and then flash it as needed.

Hi, what do you mean desolder I'm really new to this and I'm willing to learn.. is there a document I could read?

Hot air is preferable

Ok thanks for that, so how would you read the chip?

EEPROM programmer, such as a willem

This one any good? -http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TL866CS-USB-Universal-Minipro-Programmer-EEPROM-FLASH-8051-AVR-MCU-GAL-PIC-SPI-L-/161736984370?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item25a8468732

Would this be fin to act as a powering up for the work bench? if so does anyone no what Wires are what because I ain't got a clue :/

Sorry for the noobie questions! I'm egar to learn

Yellow is typically 12V, but you'll want to double check with a volt meter.

Also, a PC supply is probably overkill... you can make do with a 1000mA 12v wall wart.

Would it be fine to use? I'm trying to do this on a budget sort of thing, going scrapyard Saturday to pick up an obd port and ecu plugging s

Ya, you're fine. Just double check the voltage.

Okay, Ill report back when I need some more help :D cheers nyet

Still struggling, I'm trying to find the 12v on this psu but ain't getting anything back from the Multimeter

All PSUs have a momentary "on" lead that has to be shorted to bring up the PSU. It is assumed you knew this.

Other than plugging the PSU and powering it on.. I had a understanding something had to be jumper in order to actually power the PSU.. hence why I plug it in and the PSU fan doesn't spin even though It's powered

Anyhow I've manged to jump it Green + Black = PSU power.. Getting a 12v from the yellow and Black is an earth

That sounds right.

Ok theyre a lot cheaper than I expected!

Make sure you get a PSOP44 adapter!

It might be wise to buy also proper adapter for EEPROMs...

I've just installed MPPS V13 - I've loaded the program up and I cannot find the ECU.. the only one listed is the 1.8T me5.8.5 IIRC I can't find the me3.8.3

the pins on the me3.8.3 ecu are different also

Pins:

(Found by google image search for 'mpps m3.8.3')

Thanks I managed to do it after I posted that last night ;) next problem In MPPS I can't actually find the ME3.8.3 I know you cant read from the ecu.

You should look for M3.8.3 as it is not DBW ECU :D

That's the thing in MPPS itself I can't find the ecu listed for ME3.8.3

Look for any 1.8T M592 ECU......

Won't read it :/

With MPPS you will be able to ID and WRITE only, M383's ECUs. READ is not possible.

Take a look,
