jci bsi stuck in boot mode

[AutoX4242]

Tried to read pin code from jci bsi with Avdi and it failed writing flash, bsi now stuck in boot mode.
I read that if i write new flash it should fix my problem but i'm unable to get comms to my bsi.
if i try to write flash with avdi , i get "Target unit does not respond".
Every thread i read with same problem has been fixed with new flash but how if no communication ?.
and how can i find software signature when i can't communicate ?

Remowe bsi and do it at bench. There are pin out at this forum. Just looking.

Target unit does not respond because the file is corrupted , you need to replace the corrupted file in your log files with a good clean one of exact same signature/name , then you can connect to it , have you tried the following ?

1) look in your log files to find the correct flash file required for this vehicle , ie the correct 4 digit signature
2) obtain a good flash file of exact same signature ( post file here im sure someone can help )
3) now go to the file location in log files and replace the corrupt file with the new one , it must have exact same file name as original , ie , JCI_BSI_1275.BIN make this file write protected
4) now perform the pin read function again and all should go well and vehicle back to life , obtain pin and able to code keys

was you using original avdi ?

did you apply good battery support ?

was you using online or offline software as avdi advise to use online software as has had many updates that the offline has not .

if original avdi then contact avdi support they will often be able to supply a clean flash file if needed and even fix this via teamviewer if you have support plan.

Chinese SVDI was used.
I did write backup file of SVDI with autel. Then after no com with the car OBD.

svdi should keep log files with the correct flash signature , should be no need for autel , just replace the bad file in log files with a clean file of exact same signature then repeat the pin read process with same svdi, thats the way it worked for me with original avdi.

i cant say for svdi as cheap china copy or if any deeper issue has been caused by it .

SVDI Cheap chinese knock off tool

Still have issues with AVDI but less being genuine

[rapidlocksmiths]

The original poster didnt state its was a knock off , instead stated it was avdi and it had failed so assumed he was using genuine tool, of course all knock off is a very old copy of abrites and not as up to date as avdi original offline software and avdi offline isnt as up to date as online software , so clones are much more prone to this .

attached is bin file for the 8278 flash you mentioned in the other thread on this , unpack the rar , you should replace the file in his svdi log files with this and try the pin read process again with his svdi , fvdi can do this so i assume svdi keeps log files and can do this as a copy of fvdi which in turn is a copy of old avdi software , if no other issues have been caused of course.

if no other issues caused then follow the process above and should resolve this

advise your friend to buy genuine avdi and bin the knock off.

hopefully he hasnt done anything silly like disconnecting the battery and not following the 4 minute rule as doing so can kill the bsi.

Vehicle is up and running with another BSI, but i would be interested to know what the 4 minute rule is ? and anything else i could of tried ?
Genuine Avdi was used with active AMS, online software and Gys 100 amp battery support connected.
Avdi read and saved original flash then stuck at 61% while writing, at this point the vehicle was completely dead , 13.5 volts but not a single light, display or dial would work!.
I waited around 10 minutes but nothing would happen.
I was unable to find a suitable flash as i didn't have the 4 digit software signature.
When Avdi auto saved the flash it didn't use the software ID for the file name as other suggested it should , instead it was saved as 152855 followed by the date .
It was never possible to gain comms to the BSI after this point , i tried on the vehicle and using a bench rig.
Had i known of this problem i would of saved the Id before proceeding , but you love and learn.

next time post the flash file, i can retrieve soft signature

this hread has become confusing at best , you say original avdi was used but the chap helping you said svci clone was used ? if genuine avdi was used then did you contact abrites support ? did you send them log files ?

you say no flash file was saved , but on the other thread on this car the flash file was stated as being 8278 ?? https://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forum...rrupted-JC-BSI or is this 2 different cars and auto techniek confused the thread by talking about a different vehicle on this thread ?

abrites advise using the online as this has had many more updates for pin read , the offline software has not been updated for some time now , so they advise to use the online software .

normally 2 log files are saved , one is the flash file , to not save this is odd .
when you open the log files for psa you should see a list of flash files with flash sigs at top of page and a list of log files lower down listed as the one you mentioned , they wont be in date order but flash file log should be there , you can open log files from the abrites software and select psa logs.

all of no consequence now as up and running with new bsi , so its sorted and no longer an issue .

BSi systems are alot like an old windows system , they take time to shut down and you cant remove power until the bsi is shut down or the bsi gets bricked.
the 4 minute rule is simple , when you open a door , open the bonnet , operate a switch etc you wake up the bsi , it boots up realises its not needed so shuts itself down again , it takes around 3 minutes to do so .
so correct procedure for disconnecting the battery is to open door , pop bonnet open , close door and wait for 4 minutes before disconnecting the battery allowing the bsi to fully shut down .

ive lost count how many of these have been bricked by diy battery changes , customer always thinks its the key , wasted many hours in the old days attending these before i learnt to ask the right questions .
