Hello - Here is my issue... i can NOT get this ecu into boot mode like all the other ecu's i've done. This ecu is from a 2003 24v VR6 donor car, and is labelled as a benzin ME7.1.1. This ecu is similar to the Audi B6 S4 4.2 ecu's but not the same.
I have had success with reading / flashing eprom tweaks on a few 1.8t 032xx ecu's. I just swapped a freshly built 24v BDF into a 12v GLX car - ecu lets engine start and scan and all is well except immo cuts after about 1 sec... so my goal is to turn IMMO OFF on the eeprom. I already updated my bin file with new values and checksum's are done, etc. I don't need any help with that stuff... just help with bootmode on this particular ecu.
closest thread on nef i have found is this:
http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=9252.0I have searched like crazy and found a few interesting similar situations, but nothing has remedied my "no boot mode" yet.
Here is the ECU front/back/cover
sample of the cable / ecu communicating for reads:
i have seen a few instances where some 7.1.1 ecu's have required resistor mods... i am not sure if this applies for this 7.1.1g or not.
really hoping someone knows something specific about these 24v ECU's --- i have come across a lot of failed bootmode sob stories ... and this is one more haha.
i have a typical cable everyone here is using, plus a G 1260. I even tried with my eurodyne maestro cable (for another car altogether, but getting desperate, lol)
I tried to trace the circuit on the ecu board, but its covered by a large grounding zone on the backside of this one... so no dice finding anything of interest that way.
i rarely ask for help with any of my projects, but i am hoping my karma is high enough to receive some this time!
