I've been using the MTXElectronics checksum corrector plugin for tunerpro. 

ME7Check fails on my files with:

RSA signature failure found
-> Found 1 error!!!   *******************************

rsa: signature too large for modulus

Today, halfway through an auto-x event, my car wouldn't start.  I scanned it with vag-com and got:

16985 - Internal Control Module
            P0601 - 35-00 - Memory Check Sum Error

I've been running this flash for almost two weeks now and it took that long, even as a daily driver, to finally lock me out.  Luckily I had my other ecu with me, so it was no big deal.  This is the second time this has happened now.  the first time I thought it was a fluke.  So I guess this checksum plugin won't work for me, or am I doing something wrong?  Any others have this issue?  Gotta bootmode eeprom flash this ecu back to life again.. Sad

Hmm.. Interesting....

What ECU and software are you using here? What maximum load are you hitting in your tune?

Could it be an actual checksum validation issue, meaning bad memory hardware, or the car got shocked or something else to trigger the fault. I mean the point of the checksum is to validate the coding that flies back and forh throught the memory/processor to catch problems.

032PL software, I'll have to look at home what ecu I am using, but it's from an 04 passat.  190ish for max load.

Edit:  it's not from a 04 passat, it's from a MKIV.  032HF.

Any more ideas on this?  It's kinda hampering my tuning efforts as I don't want to be driving around a car that might randomly not start for me.   Huh

I just had this happen with my 04 passat with the DQ ecu. I sent an email to MTX with a copy of my bin. The checksum plugin says its compatible, but maybe theres something it misses.

I hate to say it, but the ONLY reliable checksum software is ecufix by Andy Whitaker. Even winOLS has this problem with custom code Sad
