Advanced ECU Coding

ECU Coding does not change the software. It handles ECU issues by activating components when original code data is lost, identifying new units after component changes, and modifying existing code to enable or disable modules. It customizes OE-settings already present in the software to suit your needs.

• Online Calibration: connect to the online server for calibration data (V.A.G Group)
• Online Parameterization: module parameterization after module change (V.A.G Group)
• Component Matching: match or initialize components such as steering angle, ignition coil, clutch after replacement
• Personalization: open or close functions like US-style daytime running lights, cornering headlights with fog lights, headlamp brightness, brake light flash on emergency braking, GPS real speed display
• Modification & Retrofit: upgrade vehicle capacity, performance or appearance such as interior light covers, bumpers, DVD/navigation software, child locks, signal horn
• Programmable Module Installation: component matching after replacement (Ford models)
