randolph Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hi, I need to bench power the (wrxlink 107 v10. Which pin(s) is ign+ and ground. Reason for this is because it has failed to upgrade firmware on the car and it’s in boot load mode, i will try upgrade it off the car, unless there’s another way... tia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure your firmware and stuff is up to date, i has issues with that stuff. Also had to use an older computer at one point.. Best of luck.

Adamw Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 From your screenshot it appears your ECU is running correctly. Does PC Link not connect normally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adamw Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 Yeah I have only ever seen a failure like this when ecu isn’t receiving 12v on the main power pin. Maybe the 2006/2007 jumpers are in the wrong position so ecu is only powered from a back feed? The bench test will confirm that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to bench power? Which pins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 Look for the large barrel shaped TVS diode near the header. Connect +12V to the stripped end and ground to the other end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s the update, it will only work and accept update .24 version, i’ve also tried the latest version .25 again after installing the .24 but it crashes still. All this done on bench with 13.5volts. I’m ok with the .24 anyways. thanks for the support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So after you do the firmware update and power cycle does the ecu no longer comer back online with PC link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With .25 after it crashes the ecu does not come online, just gives out the message (ecu is in boot load mode, reinstall firmware again) i should have taken a pics of the screen for this but didn’t, if it is important for you to know the exact message let me know i can pull it out and do it one more time, btw i also did try with both jumper settings too although on bench that does not matter.

Adamw Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Try the most recent PC Link on the website, 6.22.38 is the current one. 6.22.25 would always say boot mode after an update even though ecu was running fine. Although Im not sure if that is what you are experiencing if it wont even connect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
