The resistor value is irrelevant. it's just easier to solder to a pin than a wire 


Sadly it's still an issue with galletto. I can consistently enter boot mode, even easier now with the button. Galletto doesn't even try to communicate with the ecu. Here's how I found out.

put ecu in boot mode> connect nefmotor(bootmode) > nefmoto crashes > restart nefmoto > try connecting nefmoto(bootmode) >nefmoto keeps pinging ecu

So I have a theory- you can only connect to the ecu once in bootmode. subsequent tries will be denied.

So I tried it a bit different.

put ecu in boot mode> connect nefmotor(bootmode) > nefmoto crashes > restart nefmoto > try connecting nefmoto(kwp2000) >nefmoto keeps pinging ecu

I did it multiple times to confirm. You can only connect to it once.

put ecu in boot mode> run galletto > get boot mode inactive error > exit galletto > connect nefmoto(bootmode) > nefmoto crashes

I've repeated it multiple times, changed to com#1. Same outcome. I believe it's the win7 environment. WinXp will be tried soon.


I just tried Argdub's 95040 reader. It works with the ebay cable to read the eeprom, but has a "no echo from cable" error when using the hex-can. Yes it's in dumb mode. Confirmed by successfully connecting using nefmoto.


Everything is being done to my spare ecu. F800BB. 4b0 907 551 Q flashed to an M-box.

Well I tried a virgin w7 pc (no previous usb-serial drivers) and XP(all old drivers deleted) with the same results. Boot mode not active error and immediately afterwards I can read the eeprom. I even tried the new galletto in case I messed up while patching it. What drivers are you guys using? I have 2.08.30 which is the latest from here http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

I have galletto(version in the forum) with blue KKL cable(FT232rl), on XPsp3 , FTDI 2.06x. My voltage are set to 13.5. No problem to go in bootmode. If you use resistor, be sure to put 5K ohms or higher value.
