Two things. Never read VCM as this only reads the info saved inside the VCM not the ECUs currently installed.

Second, did you add HO WORD “TVT2”?

Okay. When I read ecu instead og read vcm, there was an error in TAL calculation, and when i went to tal processing, the text next to slot of ecus was yellow and said something like "not executionable" or something like that.

No, do I need to add that? All the forums I read just coded the module.


I only have one HO word (k235), is that normal?

So i should add TVT2 in Ho Wort and VO code CIC and TV module?

But why won't it flash the module?

Buy then again, it it helps just adding the HW Worrz I don't need to flash the module it self, but only vo code it.

Because esys doesn’t know that the car now has the new module. They are different. TVT2 is an upgrade to 601 therefore the HO WORD is the identifier to this. You can’t flash a module with the wrong files, esys knows what should be fitted. Add TVT2, calculate the TAL correctly and you should be able to flash it.

 

So add TVT2 and vo code cic and tv ?

Or add tvt2 and tal processing and flash only tv module ?

Up to you mate, depends what you are wanting to achieve. Either way, add TVT2 as HOWORD and write the FA to the VCM. Now you can flash and code correctly as your FA is now as it should be.

Ok so either way will work?

There is no issuses coding CIC with enet ?

Can't remember if I have done that before.

I will try this afternoon and get back.

Thanks for your time. Much appreciated

Enet is absolutely fine mate. Coding the unit with the correct FA will mean it’s coded correctly. However, there is an issue with these ECUs where they don’t save the channels after scanning. The fix for that is to flash it. I’ve had mine fitted for 3 years and needed to flash it twice.

I'll be aware of that thanks. It will be a nice add on ro the RSE I retrofitted last year. Then one of the kids can watch dvd and the other TV. Hope it doesn't require a video switch se see different things on the same time

Have you added the wiring from the TVT2 to the RSE unit?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Yes the fbas.

I prepared it back then.

I can have the tv no signal screen on one FD and dvd on another FD, so think it will work.

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

Why would the old module have not worked? Something seems wrong if you’re getting no signal. Check wiring is correct on the FBAS. You will need to force flash the module. This can be done by using TAL filter editor. You should also write the new FA to the VCM. Code an ECU with update VCM after tal….. ticked in esys options.

The old module would work in a country wich broadcast dvb-t1 signal, but herefter in Denmark it is only dvb-t2, so therefore there is no signal.
The fbas cable from HU to TV is factory fitted. The only fbas cable i have run is from RSE to tv module.

So I need to flash the TV module to same i level as my car, even though it is already coded to the car ?

I have never tried force flashing ( i don't even know how that works :/)

So it is added correct when i read FA

Yes

Now I understand based on your location

Open TAL FILTER EDITOR and take a look at what information is needed. Basically you are going to load your SVT, edit the line for the TV MODULE to force BTLD/SWFL/CAFD

Save this and then load it on the tal calculation page and calculate the TAL again. This will now show the TV MODULE as requiring a flash.

Time to learn

I could have said that in the beginning

When I am loading my svt actual from today it looks like this ?

Guess I loaded something wrong

Or should i change them to force? But which is the tv module?

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

That is 100% correct. You need to find the line that corresponds to your TV module. You can tell this using its diagnostics address. For example the HU is 0x63 and DME IS 0x12. I forget what the TV MODUL is but you can see it on the TAL Calculation page next to the ECU.

Edit:
Looks like 4b.

Got it. But can only find bl flash, not cafd and swfl?

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

Choose BLFLASH, SWDEPLOY AND CDDEPLOY. They are SWFL and CAFD.

Cool, thanks.

Ok, this is for the slow kid (me).
I Edit in talfilter to force flash the TV module.

Tal calculation- read fa - activate fa - load the edited svt ( or read ecu?) - complete flash - choose i step shipment - calculate - hw I'd from svtactual ? - calculate TAL- expert mode - load tal - load svt target - read fa (vcm) - check software- hope tv module appears and flash with fingers crossed [emoji1696]?

So once you have calculated the SVT target/update (sol) that file never changes, it is what it is. Read FA, read ECU. Load the file you just made in the section for edited TAL on the tal calculation window. You will now see a new symbol next to TV module once loaded. Calculate TAL again on this page, save, press execute and you will now see TV MODULE in TAL processing.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Just to clarify, the file i open in talfilter editor, is that the svt actual file I get from read ecu?

Sorry all the questions, but this editing stuff is just a tad new to new (I have only coded and flashed the normal way before)

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

The SVT ACTUAL mate. The target is irrelevant for this process so leave it calculated and unchanged. You’ve already edited the file as you showed in the pictures. Try not to over complicate this. All you’re doing is taking the SVT actual, telling esys that a specific module MUST be included in the TAL based on the changes you made. It’s all simple logic.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Haha, you are right.

But i often just press the buttons because I know that is how it works, but really I don't know what each step does/mean.

I will give a go again, and hopes the flashing doesn't fail. I hate it when it goes to transport mode with alle the errors. It takes forever do delete in ista with a slow enet cable.

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

That’s the thing, most people just press this and that with no idea what the functions are actually doing.

Show me your TAL processing window before you start, or, if the flash has started you can monitor the progress for each part of the SVK by expanding the window up on TAL Processing.

I am messing something up in this step.

It is in TAL filter I load the edited svt actual right ?

I have calculated target as well right ?

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

There is NO NEED to edit the SVT ACTUAL. Load the SVT ACTUAL in the tal filter editor. Make the changes and save. Now go to tal calculation page and load the file you just saved in the section below the SVT target. Now click calculate TAL, execute. It’s just logic mate. You are loading the edited TAL file into the tal calculation page to force the changes.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Yeah but when I calculate TAL there is 2 error boxes. If I ignore at press execute and only mark tv tv module and check for software I am missing files

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

Your tal processing is very wrong if you have HWINSTALL OR HWDEINSTALL in the TAL. Check you ilevel shipment date.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

It is F010-10-06-512 as is entered in target

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

Ok, then you need to workout why you have RED ECUs in the SVT tree. There should NOT be HWDEINSTALL/HWINSTALL in the TAL.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

 

Yeah. I guess it is out of my league then.

But thanks for trying. Really appreciate it.

I will se if I can find a guy locally who can sorted for me. I guess it is kinda simple, you just need to know what you are doing, which I don't

Sendt fra min SM-G991B med Tapatalk

 

Any ECUs with missing SWE should be deleted from the TAL to make life easier.

Thanks to Davyg. He quickly managed to sort it out remotely. The tv now works. Thanks man!

Denmark will forever be in debt

 

Hi Davyg, ive been trying to force an flash over a japanese tv module using esys, ive edited ist, tryed force update, nothing works because the hwel found is different to expected as the car is FA uk now. Ive also tried editing the ist and changing the hwel info but this doesnt work either, any ideas or do you fancy teamviewering and having a go? i have latest pszdata etc, thanks.

 

Hey man. I can help if you haven’t gotten it done yet

 

I haven't done it yet I would appreciate the knowledge

 

Understood but I would need to have a look

 

Got it done on both cars in the end, strange one. The first car i did calculated the tal as normal using 3.30 after swt by ecu and then used ist, soll and tall files in 3.27 and to flash and it went through! Thought it would be easy for the second car, it wasnt. I ended up using the soll calc from the first car and combining it with the ist from the second car, calc the tal and used 3.40 to program the module. It failed at the last swf so had to manipulate the files again and reflash and then it went through. So, i think the version of esys didnt matter in my case. For some reason the calculated soll was giving an error in the expected sgib between the ist and the actual.
luckily for me both cars are f10 made within 3 months of aech other and the sw and hw of the tv module was the same.
advice is really spend a lot of time really trying to understand what the processes and buttons do and the you can manipulate the files, trim them so you are only dealing with relevant modules and keep going till it works.
changing the istep as some have advised did nothing to remedy the errors in my case (expected sgid not matching).
To be clear i have flashed a japanese tv module to receive uk TV channels and work in the uk, which is probably not normal.

 

Could you possibly help me as well? I have a Japanese car as well. Can I contact you somewhere?

 

its taken me a whole day to just do my f32 just yesterday. what car do you have and is it jap to uk you are after?

 

F30 japan import, tv needs to go from jap to Europe. I have the cables and programs. I have dvb-t with nbt id4. Could you maybe lend a hand haha?

 

Do you know how to use esys to flash modules?

 

No, I only used esys for vo coding. But I know my way around ict things, so with a short time of expertise from you, we'll find it out. Would you have the time somewhere?

 

you need to understand how to flash modules first then come back here and i can direct you. read this link in its entirety and understand the process.

Hi bro,
Sorry for the late reply. I was collecting all the programs. I have read the link and it's document, have sys, pdszsdata full. What is next? Can I contact you somewhere? I want to flash the video module (and if it's possible ,the touchbox as well).
