The Renault Kwid ECU ME17.9.23 TC1724 was brought in for cloning. The part number on the ECU is 0 261 S17 723. The goal was to read the ECU data using the OBDSTAR ECU Master, back it up, and then write the data back to verify the process works.
Bench Mode Connections
All necessary connections were made for bench mode operation. The wiring includes:
Positive and negative power connections
CAN High and Low wires for ignition
GPT wire (on the other side)
These connections are shown clearly so viewers can follow along.

Setting Up the OBDSTAR ECU Master
Once in the laptop interface, the ECU Master tool is opened.
The vehicle selection is:
Navigate to 17.9.23.
Select Renault — the ECU profile loads.
Select Bench mode.
The pinout diagram appears.
The ECU is identified — this is the ME17.9.23 TC1724 with part number 179 23.

Starting Bench Mode Communication
After confirming the pinout, the tool is started in Bench Mode. The device begins connecting to the server. A key point to note: the internet connection must be fast for proper communication. The tool needs a stable, high-speed connection to communicate perfectly with the ECU.
The reading and communication process begins.
Backing Up the ECU Data
Before any writing is done, the first priority is to back up the ECU data.
Read and save EEPROM data.
Read and save Flash data.

Writing the Data Back
After saving, the next step is to write the data back to the ECU to verify the process.
Writing Process
The writing process takes a little longer, which is why it is being done now. OBDSTAR ECU Master:

Completion
The work is now complete:
The data will be returned to the same ECU and given back to the customer
Important Note on Adapters and Cables
Some users report that communication sometimes fails. To avoid this:
This prevents device damage and avoids any issues with the tool.
Can Formulaflash perform VAG Simos PCR2.1 unlock?
It cannot unlock OTP.
But it can do pcr2.1 on bench without unlocking.
Read on bench ok.
Write on bench ok.
Write EEPROM back to be unlocked.
Checksum correction with formulaflash.
Works like a charm.
What’s the procedure:
Read eeprom, write eeprom for unlock and read ALL,
easy.
Question: It’s a Peugeot Partner 1.5 132hp with Bosch MD1CS003 ECU.
Car build date is 2020/06. Try to read this ECU with Flex programmer.
How do i know if ecu needs to
be boot glitched or not?
Is there any danger of trying to connect and reading
on non locked protocol if ecu requires boot glitch?
Here is the clue.
How to determine whether the MD1CS003 ECU is locked or not?
Way 1:
Just try normal bench read and you will know if its blocked. If locked then flex tell you.
Way 2:
Check the ECU label.
If 0281 034, 035 or 036 it’s not locked.
Also,
0281 037 101 not locked.
If more than "037" is
locked.
FYI:
How to determine the TPROT lock status of PSA MD1CS003:
It can be quickly
determined based on the part number.
Part numbers starting with 3XX indicate
not locked;
those starting with 4XX or 5XX indicate a locked state, requiring
an unlocking operation before normal data reading and writing can be
performed.
