Hello there.
I am new here. Be nice with me :-) I got a restore/backup question, maybe stupid but still question. :chuncky:


I got a KESS v2 clone. I managed to get a reading from my car. A binary file let's call it stock.original.

Let's say I asked for other maps, Stage 1,2 etc. And I write them using Kess. All OK until now.

If I want to restore the factory map, I just write the stock.original that I created or there is another procedure?

I ask this because I see that a lot of people are asking for original maps. The file that KESS created can't be restored ?
It need another procedure like WinOLS or something else?

Basically, I need something else except the binary that already took with kess to restore the factory default or not ? (Confused)

kess only reads part of the map sometimes you have to read bdm to save ecu
