9th April, 2015

Tested today with

Peugeot 307 2.0 HDI edc15c2 kline - no id, no read

renault f9q 1.9dci edc16 can - no id, no read

I was advised: hw needs some update too....old bug like many kess units have.... so have a look at your parts....if you have not these parts, change them and it will work.

One poster post solution for example.

hardware repair solution :

W** - BCR112E

А6c - MMUN2113

6DW - BC817

Must be changed all of them, but this is a partial one : filters + capacitors is also needed N05B , cap 227 , 2907a , nfe6(filters)

an this is only the begining. Step by step based on the tests that i perform and pcs delivery from tme i will update you. I have full schematic original one  . The one i am working on is not mine .

After checking the above PCB board, I thought missing oki chip on mine.

But an experienced technician confirmed:

Oki chip was primarily for Ford J1850 PWM, but this is now done directly from the NXP, so not fitted anymore.

Finally I solved, after a little soldering rework on nxp and esmt chip read ok iaw 4af and edc17cp02
