Need file for MS3 Pre-1.4 alpha 2+ 20140709 15:01BST

Post by whodwho »

I did a repair on a dead MS3Pro unit and was able to revive it and wanted to save the tune on it. It seems to be a mid/patch version firmware and would like to find the def file or know if I should use the alpha 2 or 3 file if the 2+ is not available. It appears that VVT was a big change and might be why this was running a patched version.

This is the info of the conflict I am getting

Firmware - 'MS3 Pre-1.4 alpha 2+ 20140709 15:01BST (c) JSM/KC *********'
Serial signature: 'MS3 Format 0508.02P'

This is what I am finding:

ms3-pre1.4alpha1 - MS3 Format 0504.03P -
ms3-pre1.4alpha2 - MS3 Format 0508.01P -
ms3-pre1.4alpha3 - MS3 Format 0508.03P -

Thank you for any assistance 8^)

I'm sure I can find it, but doesn't your customer have it?

Thanks James

Unfortunately he doesn't, he just aquired the car with the dead unit and only has the CD that came with it. The PO said it had issues with VVT and shorting fuses but with the unit out of the car I found D6 shorted and replaced it and now is not blowing fuses and connecting up again.

Thank you for your assistance with finding the file and I will get the firmware updated once I can get the tune saved
