Change Vin Rlink2 - Githubissues

franeti commented 5 years ago

Hi, I would like to change my radio rlink2 2015 for the rlink 2017-18 from Renault. I have located one in a "scrapping" same car (Kadjar), but before I remove the radio I know that I have to change the vin or something like that and I suppose take screenshots from my current radio to configure the new one after the installation.

With ddt or even in dev mode, how can I do it? Is there a section in ddt to change for my vin before I remove the radio from the sinister car?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Regards.

You may change VIN after "virgin mode" https://github.com/cedricp/ddt4all/issues/113

Ok. I have seen virgin mode in dev mode. Is it the best option before I remove the radio?

And later, when I install the radio in my car, how can I type my vin?

Thanks!

You can try with DDT that need some modififations to able to write VIN. We tried before but could not succes :)) On the other hand if VIRGIN MODE means like low level format of Audio ECU then you have to go to official Renault service to reprog it and reconfigurate under renault net after virginised.

@shrlnm Did you try reprog with reprog DVD with renault clip probe? If yes as you know latest reprog DVD 174 available on the internet as iso file to download. Unfortunately reprog 174 DVD dont have any Rlink2 Audio data because of its big size. Thats why during audio reprog at renault service they are using R-USB to reprog Audio ECU. Where we can get Audio ECU data ? Is it possible to download it from infotech with service manager token ?

Thanks & Regards

@franeti I suggest not to try to change the VIN for feng shui. I not sure that R-Link2 is locked on it. You may write new VIN into rlink only after deleting the old one. It is only known way to do it is to press "virgin mode" button. But together with the old VIN you will delete all other configurations. Most difficult to repair from them are acoustic parameters sets which are about 2000 bytes of binary data each. I suggest just to save main parameters of car from the old r-link and set them up on the new one with ddt4all. Just in case of trouble with that way we may try others.

@ohayyam what software do you mean? R-Link2 contains at least 3 CPU with own software. Main CPU is running android and you may upgrade it by yourself without REPROG DVD. https://easyconnect.renault.co.uk/software-upgrade/r-link2 Next CPU is an NXP7755 audio micro-controller responsible for sound processing, ESE, noise cancelation and so on. It may be reprogrammed from the main CPU. The last one is a MICOM chip responsible for CAN conversation. I suppose that the last one may be reprogrammed thru the CAN bus. It has about 700k bytes own firmware but I do not know if the REPROG DVD has firmware for MICOM or not.

if VIRGIN MODE means like low level format of Audio ECU then you have to go to official Renault service to reprog it and reconfigurate under renault net after virginised.

The R-LInk2 may be completely repaired after virginising by the ELM327 without the clip but it is quite complex work.

@shrlnm Thanks for Quick reply. i have 2016 December fabricated Talisman and my rlink2 version 7.0.24.136 upgraded already which is not issued yet officialy ( I have lgu file i can update myself 👍)

I can reprog all ecu with DVD except audio as explained above thats why i asked where we can get reprog data of audio? in case damage or failure of radio to repair with clip.

On the other hand rlink2 V7 have RES remote engine start but i could not able to activate it with ddt and clip with modify mtc file. Can you help me for this subject also ?

Regards

I think if I use virgin mode I will go to renault to program it.

But if I change the vin maybe I dont need renault. Where is the specific site to see and change the vin through ddt? Thanks!

shrlnm commented 5 years ago

@ohayyam do you know the vin of any talisman with RES enabled on a plant? did you try to enable RS-monitor? V7.0.24 should have it inside

ohayyam commented 5 years ago

@shrlnm I tried RS-monitor from Dev mode but nothing happened. I mean not worked. i can send some photos if you give me your e-mail adress ?

I never hear any success on RES for Talisman but i know Mgn3 look that video on youtube. He used only DDT4 He said me he did some software modification on DDT4 👍

shrlnm commented 5 years ago

@ohayyam let's move to another thread for not to be off-topic here. But I tried to enable RES on talisman a month ago without success. I suppose that the problem may be in wiring scheme or in firmware version of ECUs of talisman and it just not support RES functionality. We need at least one working example for find configuration differences.

@shrlnm ok open it please :)

franeti commented 5 years ago

I have located the section in DDT to change the VIN of the radio before disassembling it from a damaged car. Ecu Audio. Radnav-Diagnosis-Identification.

Do I need anything else before I remove the radio?

Thanks in advance

Regards.

ohayyam commented 5 years ago

what about serial number of Radio? I think after replacement of Radio you have to reconfigure your radio under renault.net at official Renault service ?

franeti commented 5 years ago

To configure the radio, i think you can take screenshots from your original radio (ecu audio)

About the new huid I think yes, its neccesary with renault to pair with the vin to get access to services

@ohayyam Could you help on buying the canclip I've seen many Chinese versions and price. Which one do you have? Was you able to play with any ECU? I would also like to update the MICOM ECU(Radio can bus interface).Thanks.
