S2000 DBW - unsupported ECU, how to unlock and next steps?
Posted: Sat Jul 20, 2019 7:01 pm
Hi everybody,
I have bought a Ktuner Flash V2 for my DBW S2000.
Car is a UK spec model from 2006. ECU is 37820-PCX-G06.
This ECU is not supported by Ktuner. Its part number is not in the list of supported ECU's. My bad for not checking before buying, I would have swore all DBW S2000's were born equal...
Two questions now:
- Despite my ECU not being supported, the unit is locked to the ECU. How can I unlock it from it as I don't seem to be able to follow the process described in the Online Help.
Video here to try and depict the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIJ6u26kt4A
- Does anyone have any tips as to how to run another ECU on my car? I have found a supported ECU (38720-PCX-G14) but I've been unable to start the car with it despite trying several immo deception tricks. If anyone is knowledgeable with 2006+ S2000's immobilizer systems I'd be grateful if they could get in touch.
Worst case, Hondata is compatible with my 37820-PCX-G06 unit but I'd hate to lose the form factor of the Flash V2 + learn a new software etc. (I'm a former Neptune user).
Thanks for reading!
