Alientech KESS3 Adds MM11MPHW002 ECUs for Motorcycles

I just had an issue with this ECU while trying to perform a Full OBD read Renault SID307 with Flex programmer. At the moment of connection, Flex managed to read the password, and right after that it started patching the ECU. A few seconds later, the cooling fan turned on, and shortly after, during the connection process, the ignition switched OFF and then an error appeared. The car no longer starts.

So the only solution we found was to read the ECU in Boot mode, but fortunately we had the password file read via OBD. Therefore, we had to repair the Flash file and write it in Boot mode.

FYI:

Foxflash programmer can also read SID307 ECU via OBD without issue.

Example:

Read and wirte Renault SID307 via obd.
Follow the instructions for how to keep ignition on for the procedure.
Read 10 min.
Write 10 min.
