Opel E98 ECU Recovery with OBDSTAR DC706 Success

 

Here we are required to recover an Opel E98. We tried writing the ECU with Xhorse but it failed, so we will use OBDSTAR DC706.

All the way straight to E98 menu.

As we can see, we need two 100ohm resistors and set it to boot mode.

For this one, we don't need any 120ohm resistor between can high and can low.

Here we have bench mode and boot mode, because we have to recover the ecu.

Make sure strong Internet connection.

We have to get a shadow flash password whereby we already read ecu to give out the file for it.

Wait for it to check the password, so we can go into boot mode and write flash and eeprom onto.

Write eeprom file that we already read before.

Write Internal flash file.

This flash file is huge, so it take much time.

Someone posted when Xhorse Multi Prog erased data before it writes data, it got to like 40% and it went off. The next day when the Internet was strong and it was able to read all 100% and the ecu is back to alive.

Then we go to bench mode.

Now we have VIN and are able to connect it with the ecu.

Rewrite eeprom and flash.

Everything is okay now, the ecu has recovered.

Done! That's how OBDSTAR DC706 Tool recovers E98.
