Evo9 JDM won't read
 

Hello,

To begin I have a JDM Evo 9 GSR from Japan this is the info I have on my ecu RA186501R1 it is a ralliart Ecu I downloaded Ecuflash v1.42 also ecu unlocker v1.1 and I have the openport 2.0. First I am opening ecu unlocker and then Ecuflash with ignition on I am trying to read my rom and it starts for 15 sec and error I am doing everything good but it just wont let me read my rom I have been trying everthing for 2 day now and nothing can any one help me :crap:

This is what ecuflash is doing. I have evoscan and it runs perfect with no issues its perfect. I am running windows XP hope some one can help me ?

I would like to add I never uploaded a rom into my ecu yet if it makes a difference I would like to download my rom and edit because it its a ralliart rom I am running 26psi with no problems for 1 year now and drag time is 11.92 sec 1/4 so I really need to see this rom AFR is 10.9 to 11.4. and engine is stock no pistons kits or anything for now :)

Is the flash plug wire connected?have you opened ecu unlocker before opening ecuflash

Yes openport 2.0 is conected under the steering to my laptop ignition is on. Yes first I opened ecu unlocker and then I opened ecuflash its starts to read and then stops with that error. I tried to connect for 7 hours yesterday I even had windows 7 installed and I removed it to try windows XP but still nothing. I even removed all software and installed ecuflash with ignition on because I found a thread saying that you should install with ignition on but nothing :( I have net 2.0 installed and even net 3.0 firmware because for most people that solves the issue but its not working for me.

Also I have a question remember I am a beginner how do you know what your Evo Id is ? Is it the part number on the ECU or does Ecuflash give it to you ?

I have been reading threads for 2 weeks absorbing info to understand more about this cool software for evo's but I cant figure out what my id is.

You never said anything about the battery voltage?

Have you taken it out for a run then tried to read it?

Have you connected both op2.0 and the White flash plug?

Battery voltage is not low I have a new battery and I also charged it to be sure so this should not be the issue. I have read many threads like you are saying it wont read if the battery is low so I made sure that its not.

My evo has been sitting in my garage for 2 days I did not give it a run first if it matters.

I only have op2.0 plug I do not have flash plug wire do I need it to read the ECU with ECUflash ? I am not trying to flash it with a new rom .

You can't read or write a rom without the flash plug so your going to need to buy one

I also ordered the flash plug last week so I should receive it very soon. I thought that evo 9 did not need the flash plug for some reason I think I saw a video on you tube saying that only earlier version of evo's need the flash plug. I will post as soon as I get it but it should work fine.

thanks allot mate :)
