Help reflashing ECU to stock with WinKFP
Hey all,
2007 n54. KLINE. Attempted to flash a BB BEF today. After a 6 hour ECU READ, I tried writing one of the available bins. It went straight to failure, couldn't authenticate with the control module. From my research, this is very common to KLINE. Anyways, it's stuck in ECU recovery mode. I can't force write the modified bins or the stock ecu .org file. I've done several power cycles but cant write to ecu. Force writing doesn't work either. I downloaded winkfp and have it set up accordingly to this guide, with the E89 rar file: How to start WinKFP.pdf Can someone guide me through the procedure for reflashing ECU to stock? I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Update: Problem fixed. I flashed ecu back to stock with winkfp
If anyone has any similar issues, feel free to pm, I'll help with what I've learned. Might do a diy guide tailored to noobies with little programming experience as myself. Pro tip: Don't use BB flashing software, go mhd

This video is the exact same process except you choose your DME ECU and you don't need the checksum when you input your VIN.

Hi there,
I have a 2007 328i (e90) and we tried replacing the adaptive headlight module with a used one... I tried to flash it with winkfp, but did so without the battery being hooked up to a charger, and the flash died. The car is now in a weird state - complaining about ABS, windows won't work, dome lights stay on. We hooked it up to a charger and tried again, no luck.. then hooked it up to a running car, but still no luck. The flash fails at various %s of completion. Any ideas on what to do here? Thanks! Stephanie |

Thanks for the reply
So I tried with NCS Expert (per https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=735874) but got errors about the VIN. Other posts I found said that the module (which was used) had to be flashed to set the VIN. Per another post, I used winkfp and did the following: Comfort mode / Enter ZUSB / Update ZUSB / ENTER VIN / Programm. I found the ZUSB by looking at the INPA output and the number (9128189) came up as FRMPL2 in the list. I did set the cable to COM1 and latency to 1. Thanks! |

I think I updated the datens... Originally nothing was showing in WinKFP, so I downloaded some RAR files and extracted the files for the car, and then the list of components showed up.
I can get the exact files and all that if it's helpful, but it's on a different computer. I've attached some screenshots from the computer that show when the flash failed, the dash afterwards, and the errors I'm getting. The ABS error (the foot over a pedal) flashes when the car starts (which thankfully it still does), and then the one in the attached image shows when the car is running. The windows don't work, the dome lights won't turn off, and the headlights won't turn off when the car is running, but the radio and a/c work. Your help is much appreciated!! Thanks |

Do you have ISTA installed? If not, go to bimmergeeks.net/downloads and install rheingold. After it's done installing run a full scan and post up the ecu tree, want to see if frm is stuck in programming abort or not responding at all. What's your cars build date? Don't quote me but I believe frmpl2 is frm1, is your build date is 03/07+ you should choose frm2 in ecu list.

I don't think I have ISTA, so thanks for that link.
I will check it out and post what I find, but I won't have a chance for a few days. One question though in the meantime - should the car be hooked up to a charger or to another car when I'm running this stuff? If a charger is good enough, what setting should it be at? The one we have is 6v hi and lo, and 12v hi and lo.. Thanks! |

Ok good thing is your frm is just stuck in programming abort and is still responding. You just need to flash it in winkfp correctly. Send the last 7 of your VIN, I assume you're choosing wrong frm ecu in winkfp. Are you running progzb update or choosing an actual zb?

well that's good news
last 7 of the vin: NE29360 I did Comfort mode / Enter ZUSB - I entered the number here (from the output in INPA), then Update ZUSB and I chose the same one it found in the "Enter" dialog, but when I chose this, it lost the info from the "Enter ZUSB" so I went back and did that again... then ENTER VIN, Program, and DONE |

Here's the .ini file - if that's not the right one, let me know what the filename is...

Disable Test Checksum and enable show programming voltage and Fast baudrate.
Next try prog zb update, so what you're going to want to do is update datens before using winkfp using bmw coding tool. Next load up winkfp: F1 comfort F3 choose ecu frmpl2 F4 input vin F8 done F3 prog zb update Then see if that goes through! |

Thanks so much! I won't have a chance until Friday evening to give it a shot, but hopefully that will do the trick.
When you say "update datens", I did do that (or at least I think I did) initially. When I first tried to use WinKFP, there was no data in there, so I downloaded files and then I'm pretty sure I used BMW Coding Tool to import them. Should I try to do that again? Thanks! |

So i updated datens and ran it again.. it got to 88%, which is the furthest it's gotten, but unfortunately died. I ordered a new cable so will try that again tomorrow.
Thanks again! |
