I Refuse to send the ECU out... yet Smiley

I looked through that thread you linked, and before I do any soldering on the board I would like to be totally sure that we have the same type. Mine is a bit different from the ones in the thread. They mention a red bridge on the backside that needs to be desoldered, is that the case on mine as well ? If Yes, which one?

I found a picture of a 1 kOhm bridge to mount. that board looks like mine, so I expect thats the one to go for, but a conformation would be nice.

thanks.

The 2 first pictures is my ECU, and the last one is the one I expect to followed?

A little update, I tried to mount the resistor and ground the boot pin for 2 sec. and then read with ME7EEPROM and got to IDCHIP not supported. after 30 sec i tried again and then its like it left bootmode. Power off and ground on boot pin 2 sec, and I can do the same...  Huh

Shouldn't it supposed to stay in boot mode when it is in it ?

Carsinc, It sounds really good with a little walk through. And Yes it is a mk5 R32

So here the deal. Turns out the ME7EEPROM program cannot connect to my ECU. Next up will be to try with the VAG Commander and see if thats possible.

Update:

Vag commander 3.6 could not connect. But 2.5 could  Shocked

I managed to read the EEPROM, at least I though i did, but then i notice it was only 200 bytes  Undecided I've attached a picture of the read out in Vag commander. Anyone have any idea to what to do ?

I need to delete the immo....

You are mixing up "booted" with "boot mode". It's in "boot mode" only before the host (in your case the PC EEPROM reading program) starts communicating with it, then it's just "booted" and cannot go into "boot mode" again without a power reset.

Thank you for explaining that woj.

It seems like my only option is to desolder the eeprom and read it, either in another ECU, or buy a burner ? I think thats a bit to much since i'm only planning to do this one ECU.  Undecided

Anybody located in Europe and up for a little task? Smiley

Your ecu is an ST10 so protocols/cs etc are different to the earlier ME7.1.1. C167 ones which can work with the cheap/free software. There's quite a few changes which is why we're saying try things like late MPPS or Galletto, for what clones cost, plus with the dual checksums in flash and other areas with the ST10's and the fact the newer ones come with checksum buttons, then it's probably much better to try something like an MPPS V18 clone or the like for what they cost as you may end up bricking it if not!

There are also immo areas in the flash, attached a calibration bin and screenshot of the immo aspects within it if it helps you track them down in your ecu to start with? Easier to start with a half decent tool though!

Thanks for the inputs. I found the MPPS V18 on Ebay to a decent price, like 80 dollars, so maybe I will give it a go and try that one out.. https://www.ebay.com/itm/MPPS-V18-MAIN-TRICORE-MULTIBOOT-with-Breakout-Tricore-Cable-OBD2-Diagnostic/163218485633?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D54445%26meid%3Dde3da3902a39498793f0983ec097b771%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D3%26sd%3D302862666844%26itm%3D163218485633&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

Success! The Immo is finally OFF!

I couldn't wait for my MPPS to arrive, so I got the EEPROM desoldered and found a nice local dealer who had a programmer, he could easily do a IMMO Off.

Thank for the guidance to every one in here..
