Hello everyone, I got E48 V3 ECU with V12 firmware.

I would like to connect to te PC but the dtawin software available on the website is not compatible with the firmware and the firmware V35.4 available on the site is for E48 version 4 to 8.

Does anyone have the firmware or software I need?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Firmware is not user updatable as far as I know, as it would involve either a chip change or EEPROM etc.

The oldest DTAWin I can find on my computer is V27, which is 2001, so must be pretty close to them changing from DOS to Windows.

Thank you for the answer.

I tried the V27 version but it is still too recent.

I know but I do not have the .bin file corresponding to my model.
Do you know if I can flash with the V4 available on the internet.

If I have no other solution, do you have a link for DTADOS?

Thank you in advance for your help.

At one time I did have a 3.5" disc with it on it....but as you can appreciate, that's a hell of a long time ago. It may still exist somewhere, but no clue where.

You could try Alex, but as he only took over a few years ago, not sure if he has any legacy stuff that old, and I dont think Allan kept a lot of stuff either.

Although Alex might be able to facilitate a firmware upgrade, although it is only a maybe. Give him a shout ( ie Alex @ DTA )

And you'd need a pretty old laptop to run the DOS software too.

Quick and perfect answer from alex.

He sent me the fimware and DTADOS.

DTADOS works perfectly with DOSBox.

Thank you very much to both of you, my ECU is alive.
