Answer:
First, please check if your car & ECU is listed or not
KESS FW5.017 Land Rover
KTAG 7.020 Land Rover
Second, which tool do you need for Land Rover?
KESS V2 is a ECU programming tool that is perfect for OBD use, while KTag is perfect for Jtag, BDM and all the Boot application (tricore and ST10).
So,personally, i would recommend you buy KESS V2 5.017 + KTAG 7.020together coz the bundle would not only help save a lot but better for future use. Look here:
KTAG firmware 7.020:
works better, faster and more stable than old versions
- adds 100+ ECU types& supports new car models e.g.Toyota 76FXXX, PSA 17.4.4, Ford E83, VW 17.5.5 (1766), Mercedes-Benz 276 ECU, Toyota 76F, etc.
- more languages available English, Italian, Portuguese,French, Deutsch, Spanish)
- better wiring description (inwordsnot pictures).
Kess v2 firmware 5.017:
Compared to KESS V4.036, the KESS 5.017 has been improved a lot:
- 100% working
- No tokens limited
- with original database
4.Windows 7 & Windows 8supporting, not only Windows XP
5. supports more cars & bikes & trucks unlimited tokens, fully activated
Third, how to use KESS 5.017 or KTAG 7.020 to Read/Write Land Rover ECU Data
For KESS V2 5.017 users:you can program directly through the OBD port of the vehicle, while with Ktag you need to take apart the ECU and open it, after you can make the read/write operation.
For KTAG 7.020 users: you need to disassemble from the car and open and this is the case for all the ECU (most Land Rover ECUs) that need to be programmed with Jtag, BDM and Boot protocols,but it is not a hard job,you can buy a LED BDM Frame together to simple your job.
