Anyone had success unbricking this code ecu?? Can't pit it into bootmode after it brocked with mpps , can't read immo chip either ( it is 95160 chip not 95040 ) and it kind of driving me nuts

As of now if have tried the classic way ( galletto with ground pin 24 no sucess ) tried mpps clone with same wayand retried both with 000 bridge removed.

Odd thing too is I still can acess the ecu with vcds but there ia not much ( odd numbers  in description and only button available is login )

Any help would be appreciated

negative sir. not for those.

I have the same ECU setup and it's driving me nuts as well. That looks like a HW III Family https://imgur.com/a/fuJhSpx

I first dumped mine with a MPPS, you need v21 (v18 cable will work with v21 software, but will brick after 10 uses). I was able to get it into bootloader mode by tagging on that resistor and shorting the boot pin to ground as I powered it up. I picked up a KESS, booted it by grounding the boot pin, and also letting KESS use it's boot wire, I still was not successful in getting into the 95160. And my MPPS is bricked now.

I just made a post about my 95160, I ended up getting a cheap CNH431 and a chip clip to dump it.

Edit: Since this is mostly just me messing around with stuff and learning, I did order up a carprog, which should work and I *think* claims it can do a dump fully over OBD.
