    *Resolved*

    I figured it out and wanted to share some what I discovered.

    My stock ECU is part number A 270 900 21 00
    I cloned my ECU to a part number A 270900 09 00

    They are both Bosch...

    Support has not been able to help me. Suggested using beta but no luck. Someone here has to have encountered this before.

    Can VCM suite import bin files?

    I tried and received the following error. Contacted Support again. Anyone else encountered this?
    "Failed". "Write Transfer Aborted". It is not allowing me to attach a picture here of the error.

    HPTuners Support says this is normal for some Mercs. Seems scary but going for it since this is a cloned ECU and should not result in losing the ability to drive my car.
  6. VCM Editor Requires Writing Before Reading?

    Hi Everyone,

    I cloned my ECU and wanted to read my 2014 CLA 45 AMG (Bosch Med17.7.2) using VCM Editor and MPVI3.
    When I attempt to read, it wants to write a small file first to my ECU. Is this...

    outlaw_50 - I missed your message here and truly appreciate you offering to help. If I saw this, I would have done exactly that. But, I do have good news!

    I forgot what error KESS V2 gave. My ECU is not even on there though and I tried the ones that were close. KESS V2 has 17.7.1 r 17.7.3 but not 17.7.2.

    KTAG does list 17.7.2. When using with the...

    Uh oh!
    KESS v2 and KTAG are not working with new Mercedes ECU despite it being the same type. Maybe because they are clones. Bummer.

    Alternative suggestions? I guess I could buy a virgin ecu...

    Progress is being made.

    Ebay ECU is on the bench. I tried a KESS V2 China clone and could not get it to do anything.
    My KTAG clone arrived yesterday and looks like it is working.

    I was able...

    Really? What is needed? chevota said he was able to do it above on his car?

    You mean cloning and ECU with KESS will not work?

    I got a new main battery and backup battery and installed both.
    Received my previously loved ECU for $150 online and already opened it. The part of the case I removed got bent but I will bend it...

    Thanks chevota - I got the KESS.rar file above downloaded. I am going to look it today.

    I have Med17.7.2 so they are very close but might not be identical.
    My backup (previously loved ECU) will...

    Apparently dealer does not have your fancy tools. Their Xentry system only allows to program a virgin ECU. I double checked with 3 dealers. Kess? Not the same as KTAG, right?

    Hi Everyone. Thanks for the help!

    I took my car to the Mercedes Dealership. They ordered a new virgin ECU and programmed it for me for a low price of $1,500. So I have my car back with a...

    Yes! I found a couple on Ebay testing and warranty and allow returns.. I would love to learn more about Kess so I can follow what you did.

    I do have a backup of my ECU but since nothing connects to it through OBD2, not sure how I can re-load it. Do you know? I am going to buy another ECU too. That is a great idea! $200? Where did...

    It failed before finishing the read. It took about 10 mins. I will have to check if I got the files. My obd2 port has power but is not responsive to any tools, including a cheap scanner.
