After my escapade as Dave well knows about too..
My 2 cars now wont start because of fkd ecu's...to be fair though, it was stupid arse here that got to cocky/smart here with the files the first time, and fkd it . ....now it wont read data or the ecu and if it doesnt start with being flashed via the obd, that chip will need removed and resoldered ect
As for the C5, it was half way through a write and just stopped/froze at 44%....was talking to Dave at the time, he knows how angry I got as that was me with 2 buggered cars
Now I've got a guy coming out to hopefully start the C5, but will send dave the pugs ecu to socket it.
I used the galletto 1260....i dont know if it's a duff cable or my laptop, I'll probably never know....but
As for dave, I've take my hat off to that man (if I wore one lol) he's bloody great, he's helped me no end and still doing so, I really dont know where I'd be without him, he's a credit to tuners in his field
I'll hopefully be on the rd in a couple of days once the mob mr turpin's been out and got the c5 going.
But the bottom line that you asked....does a wrong map kill an ecu.....it did in my 2 cases....well to be honest as I said, I fkd up the first time trying to put the zip on, but the second time I did everything right, just that half way through the write that was it.......that's not anyones fault, just something that happened
