Hello,
Is it possible to buy a used ECU and pair it with another BMW S1000RR?
My plan is the following:
I have ISTA+ and Rheingold to program a 'new' or empty ecu to a specific vehicle. Is it possible to reset or virginise a used ECU and then pair it as if it was 'new'?
On the internet i found some stuff mentioning that if you are able to read the ECU by the BDM ports, and then rewrite all the VIN instances with FF or 0, the BMW software recognises the ECU as a new one?
Is this correct?
