I have a very old ECU...

Discuss issues and tuning software like DTASWin, E-Race, MegaLogViewer(DTA), etc. Also post archive versions of firmware.

I have a very old ECU...

Post by Mikey G »

Hope someone can help, i'm in the middle of helping someone with an engine transfer that comes with a DTA ecu already with it.
Now this looks like an old E48, it has 4/FV/1/S as the model, Version 2.0, Firmware version 9.01, serial number 1280.

DTAwin will not connect to the ECU as the firmware is not supported.

What are my options? Any software archives out there that can access it?
If the ECU is scrap is there a way I can rescue the MAP?

Regards

Mike

well the first thing to do would be ask Alan, the message sort of implies that there is a DTAdos or something to that effect.

No joy, same result :(
Thanks for trying though Stevie, will have to try and track down an even older version or DTAdos if it exists.

I can actually picture the floppy disc...it does exist. Just cant think where to find it.

I have found and old DTA manual that mentions it too.
