Hi.Ive downloaded ecuflash and explorer and have downloaded some of the files that people have posted of their ecu data, but i cant seem to view any of the data-is there anything else that i need to view them,or am i being a complete ar#e???
Ive allready been searching for info but as of now im still stuck

Any help is much appreciated.

Hi Gary,

All you need to do is create the xml file.

you need xmlwrite to do so.

once you have a rom, let's say: A4SGA00C.hex

copy it into the xmlwrite directory

start xmlwrite and put in the call id A4SGA00C

tell it for which program you want the xml file and it'll create it

copy the file (xml) into the definition directory of the application and you should now be able to read your map

...or you could just use enginuity from enginuity.org. It already has most of the ecu definitions built in.
