    Thanks for the pictures, very helpful.
    So you are reading the ECU using OBD-2 correct?
    I don't think OBD2 will read/write a tunerlocked ECU, taht needs BDM to access the flash. Have you tried the BDM function? You need to open the ECU and solder some wires to the board.

    Oh, they work. But the price barely covers the components that you will receive. What you will also receive are viruses and Trojans. The most well known of these is the LPK.dll.

    I looked at these as an option when the Antus "free" flashing tool, turned out to be a read-only teaser tool.

    the disk i received with my chinese clone was clean of "bugs" but can't seem to read anything(have tried it on several ecms now) think that may be a win7 thing, putting xp on an old laptop now.(had to go to the flea mkt, turns out i didn't have a laptop that would run xp...........)


    however i would not consider putting the software on anything that can connect to the web........................

    like i said the disk i received was clean of bugs and malware, but i have heard many stories of viruses and other creepy crawlies from disks distributed with chinese clones, best to keep such things contained............

    cheap chinese Fgtech will not allow anti-virus programs, otherwise software will killed. no internet connection, cause firmware will die. if you did they told you and load sw on Winxp, it works OK,money well spent, 39.99US$ i bought mine

    I am very interested in this tool. I need to repair/unlock some E38's I have. Since they are corrupted or tunerlocked OBD communication is of no use, I need to use BDM to directly access the flash.
    I asked several guys who repair those ECMs about what tools they use, but it's like I'm asking for the Holy Grail. Only 1 answered and politely told me to fu** off.
    I have used BDM/Jtag tools in the past, it's no big deal, but it's a top secret it seems.

    So the fgtech I got off eBay I could not read and of the tested ecms in the threads. I had updated the firmware in it via an online tutorial and it works great for bdm reads.

    2ss8 gave me the link of the unit he bought I didn't update the firmware and used it strait out of the box not updating anything. I was able to read and write a 0411 ECM on the bench.
