This is a relatively common error with KOMBI and I don't think anyone has found the cure yet.

What is your battery voltage like?

I'm using 53.3. Doesn't appear to have been ever updated.

Voltage should be fine. I do have a charger that I could try to hook up to, but i don't think that is the case.

I have an aftermarket radio, I wonder if that could be the problem.

The last 7 digits are correct, I believe that is all the matters. I did enter the full Vin though.

Is the KOMBI original or has it been retrofitted?

Everything is 53.3. And the data files are in there. I have flashed 3 other modules with no issues. I've searched and it appears other people have run into the same issue, but I wasn't able to find a solution.

His winkfp is set up correctly if he can flash other modules. The error is not assembly line data related.

OP, did you see my last question? Is he KOMBI an original factory unit or is it a replacement / retrofitted one?

My money is on voltage right now. Are you using DCAN cable or ICOM?

Sorry Sensible, didn't see your first post. The Kombi is original I believe. I am using DCAN cable. Voltage should be fine, have an almost new battery. Attached are my winkfp settings.

What's the status here guys? I also am getting this exact error when I attempt to flash my kombi module. I have succesfully flashed 6 other modules but my kombi attempts and fails.

When you click "PROG-ZB_Update" it should show your current assembly file number and the new one your updating to.....if you search your PC for that new production number, do you find it anywhere? I only ask because I'm getting the same exact error number but it attempts to update before the error pops up and I cannot find this file anywhere in my datens. When I update my other modules I can find the proposed file in my datens. So now I wonder why WinKFP is recommending this when I don't have it?
