Hi all,
Today I though I would cheap out and purchase a MPPT cable off ebay and try doing a re-flash myself.
I guess it goes to show you get what you pay for.
I was trying to re-flash my 1.9 TDI ALH motor in the form of a Skoda Octavia 1
As it turns out MPPT is unstable in Windows 10 and just as the Flash began to write, the program kicked out an error.
The CEL had gone out so it was clearly writing data to the ECU but the application terminated so no recovery sequence was initiated automatically. Upon cycling the key no CEL or glow plug light lit up.
I had a poke about and it looks as if the ECU is in 'Boot Mode' and when I look at the software the only option available to me is the write button, however when trying to again write the stock file, the ECU does not 'Wake up' and the process fails, kicking out a gobbeldy goop log file.
Any help would be much appreciated as I can not work without this car, although I suppose it couldn't have happened at a better time with this self-isolation thing going on xD
Thanks so much in advance for the help, it really does mean a lot to me.
