Hi, I have a problem with a friends MSS52. (E39 M5)

I use Siemens MSS5x Flash Tool from chipster.no

The first thing I do is read both full and partial for backup

Then I do a full flash with another full read (found here) with version 1601 so I can use the definitions discussed in this forum.

When I now try to do partial write (to do my changes, since definitions doesnt support full read), it wont write!

The flash tool is stuck at 0%, and bytes not changing. I can read ECU Info and Master chip, but nothing else works. (tried full write with original file, but same, no progress)

What can I do? Thanks for all the help I can get

If you need my files please let me know

Mhm, nearly most versions define but not offical released :).
So no need to swap versions. Did you also got master and slave read?
If WinKfp didnt work and you dont get BDM-Tool send me PM I can recover nearly all of them with flash bricked.

So first: Let ECU set down. Wait ~ 15min disconnected. Put in, read ID. If work. Did fullflash , after this disconnect ~10 sec., did ID read and directly partial flash. After this, disconnect and wait some time and after this test read.
If dont work WinKfp or PM me.

Thanks guys, but so far no luck.

Have tried waiting - read ecu info - full flash - doesnt work (stuck at first byte/0%)

I have never used WinKFP, but I have it installed with INPA, so I'll try googling that

I can only read MASTER chip, Lambda1

I will PM if I cant get WinKFP to work

I do have Kess V2 china copy, but it does only support OBD, have tried but get error on read

I'll google WinKFP and take it from there, thanks again
