Top Tools to Clone BMW MSV90 DME

 BMW Continental MSV90 DMEs store the TriCore password in their flash memory. To clone BMW MSV90 ECUs, it also has to transfer over the tricore password. It is crucial not to alter or overwrite this portion when performing ECU Cloning Job.

 

Here we list top tools that will clone BMW MSV90 DME perfectly.

 

1. OBDSTAR DC706

DC706 will do individual read and write MSV90, it can extract ISN code.

To clone BMW MSV90 DME, you need a full read/write. DC706 adds “Read All Data” and “Write All Data” options in recent updates.

 

BMW MSV90 Cloning: Read-write DC706 successful.

2. Launch X431 IMMO Plus/IMMO Elite or Launch X431 ECU Programmer or PAD V/PAD VII+ X-prog3

 

Steps to perform a successful MSV90 cloning using LAUNCH:

Go to IMMO Prog->Engine-> Siemens-> MSV90

Check wiring diagram.

Connect the original MSV90 ECU to Launch device.

Read and back up eeprom and flash of the original DME.

Disconnect.

Connect donor DME, read and back up eeprom and flash of the donor DME.

Restore eeprom and restore flash data to the donor MSV90 ECU.

3. HexProg II

Hexprog II is the best one for BMW DME cloning.

HexProg II is highly recommended as it ensures the preservation of the ECU password during the cloning process. An appealing aspect of HexProg II is its ability to clone the MSV90 ECU in Bench Mode, eliminating the need to physically open the ECU cover. By following the provided software wiring instructions and connecting the corresponding wires to the ECU pins, successful cloning can be achieved.

HexProg II Tuner software also features a special function called READ ISN. This function enables users to retrieve the MSV90 DME ISN (Internal Security Number) in both Bench and Boot Modes, extending its support for cloning purposes.

It is crucial to safeguard the password of the ECU during cloning. To address this requirement, HexProg II offers a dedicated clone button that facilitates the safe and secure cloning of MSV90 ECUs.

Steps to perform a successful MSV90 cloning using HexProg II:

1. Launch the HexProg II Tuner software and select the MSV90 ECU and proceed by selecting the bench mode.
2. Begin by creating backups of both the original and donor MSV90 ECUs.’You can access the connection from the “wiring” button’.
3. Connect the original MSV90 ECU to HexProg II and click the “Clone” button to begin the cloning process.
4. The software will prompt you to select the original MSV90 ECU. Follow the on-screen instructions to choose the correct ECU.
5. Once the software reads the data from the original MSV90 ECU, it will ask you to connect the donor MSV90 ECU.
6. Connect the donor MSV90 ECU to HexProg II, and then proceed with the cloning process by clicking the “OK” button in the HexProg II Tuner software.
7. The software will transfer the data from the original ECU to the donor ECU without modifying the password stored within the donor ECU.
8. Wait for the cloning process to complete. The duration may vary depending on the data size.
9. Once the cloning process finishes, the software will notify you of the successful completion. Disconnect both the original and donor ECUs from HexProg II. Test the cloned ECU by installing it in the vehicle. Ensure it functions properly and meets your requirements.

 

4. CG FC200 or AT-200

FC200 is a cheap option and works like a charm.

Always use fc200 for bmw job it’s more better. But they are charging for update.

 

 

 

 

5. Xhorse Multi Prog

The gen1 vvdi prog is not possible to clone MSV90, the gen2 multi prog does.

Example:

2011 x3 n52 motor MSV90
Did ECU cloning bench mode.
Work good.

6. Yanhua Mini ACDP

ACDP will also clone Siemens/Continental DME without soldering. Requires Module 27 and MSV90 interface board.

Will Autel Change Ford Solenoid Body Strategy and ID?

Question:

Am I able to change the solenoid body strategy and ID on a 2018 ford f150 with Autel MaxiSys Ultra scanner, I don’t see the option for it.

Use Forscan or Ford FJDS/FDRS.  You cannot do this with the scanner.

 It requires access to the Ford Server (something Autel doesn’t have). The solenoid ID is embedded in the software and you need Ford software to do this. 

You can use a PC program called ForScan and your Autel’s VCI for connecting to the vehicle.

Forscan is easy. A lot before 2011 will give a popup error regarding the TRID. In those cases, IDS/FJDS is needed. Then 2018-up FDRS vehicles will give an error that the “service procedure was interrupted”, and you’ll need FDRS. 

Just depends on the vehicle. Both options are very affordable. You can get a cheap VXDIAG VCX NANO Ford J2534 or Autel Maxiflash VCI for Forscan and FDRS software. Always have a backup plan.

Tips to change Ford Solenoid Body Strategy and ID with Forscan:

1) update to latest version of forscan, connect to the car.

2) click on the configuration and programming button (the diamond below the wrench), 

select transmission characterization update, 

select play at the bottom, click on OK, click OK again (update by solenoid strategy number should be highlighted), type in the new number (located on the drivers side of the trans, something like 2127292576721), select OK; if you haven't already downloaded the file it will ask to, then it will load the file.

3) select Transmission Repairs with replacement main control/valve body, then click OK; it should be it.

No need to update/program solenoid strategy unless swapping to a different valve body. 

Program Audi A6 2000-2006 All Keys Lost by VVDI2 and Godiag GT114

 Godiag released a new Godiag GT114 Audi K-line test platform for Audi A3/A4/A6 C5 IMMO2 IMMO3 K-line instrument clusters.  These Audi clusters are not possible with pogo pin to read immo data, you will need to read eeprom and write key.

Here obdii365.com shows how to use the Xhorse VVDI2 and Godiag GT114 Audi K-line test platform to program Audi A6 C5 2000-2006 all keys lost in service mode by eeprom. The test platform is compatible with multiple programmer AVDI, Autel etc.

 

 

Procedure:

 

Main steps:

• Read EEPROM & PIN
• Write Key
• Write new key data back to cluster
• Learn key

 

Connect Godiag GT114 with VVDI2 and cluster

Run vvdi2 software. Select Audi function.

Connect to Instrument module and read DTCs.

Select Special Function->K-line instrument/immobox

Read EEPROM.

It will extract PIN code. The PIN is required to learn key later.

Save eeprom data.

Insert a Megamos 48 chip into vvdi2 key programmer. Don’t use xhorse super chip.

Select Transponder Programmer function. Detect transponder information.

Go to Immo Data Tool. Select Euro- Audi-A6- VDO, load EEPROM dump.

Then select a key position and make dealer key.

Prepare dealer key successfully.

Save new key data.

Back to Audi software,  go to Special Function->K-line instrument/immobox

Load new key data file.

Then write EEPROM back to cluster.

Last step is to learn key. Put the transponder chip into the induction area of Godiag GT114 Audi test platform.

Go to Key Learn-Key Learn function

Input key number and PIN code (got in step 1) and press Learn.

Switch ignition OFF for 5 seconds, then switch ignition ON. Press OK.

Switch off ignition. Insert each key to ignition and switch on at least 2 seconds.

Follow ignition ON/OFF strictly otherwise may fail to learn key.

Learn key successfully.

Test the new key. The light of the key identifier flashes and then goes out, indicating that the IMMO chip and the chip key are working properly.

Put cluster back to vehicle and start car with the new key.

Done.
