I must be missing something here, I'm helping a friend out reading his ROM (96940011) but it looks like the addresses aren't right.
Funny thing is I have another friend with the same exact ROMID and his file opens up and looks fine.
Any ideas??

Someone probably changed the ROM ID.

you need to down load the ECU unlocker. Post 15 in this thread..


https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ec...cker-tool.html

To permanently unlock you ROM change the INIT code to 0001. Its hex, so you have to enter it as 0x0001..

Hello. My friend asked me for help with his idle map, but I cannot open his rom. When I;m opening it, it seems like someone changed xml or something. What should I do? Car is USDM E9

I've just finished wiring an Evo 6 ECU into my GSR Lancer (1995). The car starts and idles fine, havent driven it (yet).
Plugged in my tactrix cable and selected evo VI (MH7202F), hit read ECU, and I get:
[18:12:39.011] using metadata XML ID read_evo5 from file C:/Program Files (x86)/OpenECU/EcuFlash/rommetadata/read templates/read_evo5.xml

The code he got is the same one that people get when there is not enough voltage to read/write.

Hooked up the spare battery, Downloaded ECU Unlocker, launched that, launched ECUFlash, turned key to ON, hit the read ECU button:

[21:05:27.738] using metadata XML ID read_evo5 from file C:/Program Files (x86)/OpenECU/EcuFlash/rommetadata/read templates/read_evo5.xml

[21:05:30.877] interface close

Doesnt appear to be any change.

It doesnt actually tell me what the error is. Im starting to wonder if this program is fked. Cant get it to work on my 03 WRX or my 01 Forester GT either.
Downloaded it from the Tactrix website.

EDIT: couldn't actually get anymore than 11.6 volts out of my spare or the one in the WRX when hooked up with jumper cables :/

Will go for a drive tomorrow to try and charge it a bit.

Starts amazingly fast with the Evo VI ecu, like, instantaneously...


I also get the same error when the tactrix cable isnt even plugged into the car... So i'm leaning pretty heavily toward the OBDII pins not being connected to the ECU properly, will have to check each one individually when I get back from holiday (going away tomorrow)

Did you ever figure out the issue?

I solved that issue and ran into others.

Turns out my reflashing plug (car side) had the pin in the opposite corner. The plug that Tactrix sent me had contacts in all the holes so I assumed they were all connected and ran out the back as the single wir . Nope, only one is actually connected to the stereo jack on the end of the plugg. I noticed when flicking through Merlin's ecuflash guide that my plug had the pin in a different spot. Awake it, and worked perfectly.

The MH7202F Evo 6 ECU I had in the car then went and decided to brick itself after I changed one fuel cell, and rn a successful test write, upon flashing it gave me a memory error and that was it. Tried bench flashing it, nothing. The guys at Tactrix want my ecu to look at because they can't figure it out either (unheard of for a 7202 to die).

So, I bought a JDM Evo 7 ECU. Swapped a few wires, copied the MAF data from the evo 6 ROM into the evo 7 ROM, because I'm still running the 787maf. Car runs nicely. Just finished changing my turbo this evening, upgraded to a td05-14b. Now I need to sort out wideband logging.

My advice, don't waste your time with the 5&6 ecu unless you get it super cheap.

PS excuse any grammatical errors, I'm on my phone

Still having connection problems

Running latest driver, cable shows connection but i still get this message.

[07:50:41.587] unable to open OpenPort device [ TX39B14]. [07:50:41.587] unable to connect to vehicle interface.


Anyone else have other suggestions?

I've read through the post but nothing worked.
-Battery full charged
-cable connected and shows connection,
-Ignition on "on" position with engine off.
-Tried with car on
-Tried connecting to car then powering EcuFlash, vice versa

Hi guys. I'm new to this ECUflash/Tactrix cable. As I read it all seemed very straight forward but as I finally got my 1.3u cable I started having some problems. I have windows 8.1 with lastest ECUflash 1.44.4503 and Evoscan 2.9. And my car is a USDM Evo IX GSR

At first I couldnt read my ECU and used to get the sequence:


[19:22:48.691] sending init sequence 1 (0001)
[19:22:51.968] sending init sequence 1 (0003)
[19:22:55.245] sending init sequence 1 (FFFF)
[19:22:55.245] sending init sequence 1 (F0F0)
[19:22:57.962] no response to any known code
[19:22:57.963] interface close

Then when I runned the program as administrator the problem was solved.

Last week I installed my AEM UEGO wideband and again started getting the same problem. I've tried running it as admin, charguing the battery by warming up the car a little bit. Checking if all my fuses where ok and even trying with my cousins laptop which has windows 7 and also used to work too... but no luck

Then last night I tried my laptop with a friends evo8 and it read his ecu with evoscan but ecuflash has started closing after a while of having it opened

Please can someone suggest me any other things I should also check? I guess the problem is now with my car as I've managed to read the evo8s ecu with my laptop and same cable...

Help please! I live in a country which no one has ever done this before so I can get any help at all.

Thank you very much!!
