I brought up power class so I will respond, mainly to say that at this point I'd defer to rjahl. He contributed greatly to the thread I linked above regarding MSV70 cloning and has a far greater knowledge base than I.

That said, a 2FA4 (variant coding) error will not necessarily prevent the vehicle from starting, including at least some cases when 2FA4 results from power class mismatch. But I do not know what other sorts of problems might trigger 2FA4 and how they might affect starting.

I think the suggestion rjahl made earlier to make sure that the WinKFP flash executed correctly is a very good one.
