How to Read Ford/JLR SID208 ECU with GODIAG ECU GPT Boot AD?

How to use GODIAG ECU GPT Boot Adapter to read Ford/JLR SID208 ECU?

It’s easy to operate on bench, working with SM2 Pro J2534 device and PCMTuner Dongle which has pcmflash software together. Godiag GT100+ will also be used to check the device and ECU communication.

 

Main steps:

Step 1: Read Password (via OBD on bench)

Step 2: Read ECU EEPROM & Flash data

 

Step 1: Read Password (via OBD on bench)

1.Connect devices and ECU

  • Connect SM2 Pro J2534 to computer via USB cable and connect to GT100+ via OBDII cable
  • Connect GODIAG ECU GPT Boot AD to GT100+ and SID208 via the jumper cable according to the corresponding wiring diagram
  • Supply 12V power to GT100+ ECU Connector
  • Plug pcmtuner smart dongle into PC
  • Must press the switch on Godiag ECU adapter to read the car password

2.Read and save password

Run pcmflash software

Select the interface and ECU model below:

  • Interface: J2534: Scanmatik-SM2 USB
  • ECU: [07] JLR: Defender 2012.2.2L TD4 (SID208)

Identify the ECU by clicking “Identification”

Read password by clicking “Read”

It shows the current voltage value, and asks you to turn off all electrical load and turn ignition on.

Click “OK” to continue.

Read password succeeds, turn ignition switch off

Save the password data

2.Read EEPROM & Flash data

Run pcmflash software

Select the interface and ECU model below:

  • Interface: J2534: Scanmatik-SM2 USB
  • ECU: [53] Infineon: TC1797 EEPROM (64 KB)

Identify the ECU with automatic power control (L-Line)

Must manually pop up the switch button on Godiag ECU GPT Boot AD ECU Connector

Then continue to read flash data

Select [53] Infineon: TC1797 MICRO (4096 KB)

Identify the ECU, use the same method to read flash data and save the file

All operations are completed.
