try to reflash it but it fails everytime. remove usb cable shutdown ecuflash replug in usb restart ecuflash, go to options use alt flash mode. If it fails during a write I leave the car on. You do not even need to bench reflash the EvoX ecu anymore to recover it.
UPDATE JULY 2014 NEW METHOD without bench flash: UPDATE OCTOBER 2020: Bench Flashing is required if you need to kick out locked roms from ex-tuning companies, or if you need to move to a similiar but different major revision (different first 4 digits on the rom id, i.e from 5237nnnn to 5305nnnn) But since you will most likely be doing this on the bench with a wall power supply, anything above 12volts is fine.
12.9V quickly becomes 2.6V within 5 minutes of the key ON with no engine running. UPDATE: Most Bulletins released by Mitsubishi these days state a minimum of 12.4 volts for safe reflashing, therefore ALWAYS have a charger applied to the vehicle or bench. Normal voltage on most EvoX during reflash is between 11.9 and 12.2 volts. Mitsubishi Dealer tools require minimum 9.7 - 9.8 volts for reflashing, I would highly recommend a minimum of 10.5-11.0 volts. Try your cable on another mitsubishi just to be sure the cable is good. This is sometimes a symptom of a faulty cable also. continue below for EvoX.ĭo you get this message when trying to do a reflash?
