ECU swapping is not really a thing, unless you're swapping stock for a standalone like MoTeC. |

No the message is just ecutek complaining that the rom calid you want to flash into the substitute ecu is not compatable, but in this case you actually want to flash in the different calud ecu just private message me and ill tel! you how to get arround the problem. Its easy to do but if misused can stop car from starting ot running. You still need flash points which looking at the logs you have enough |

Update:
Was successfully able to complete force-flashing a 2015 D00C ProEcu ROM into the spare 2013 ECU that was originally flashed with a an "incompatible" A00C ROM. Car is back up and running. Special thanks go to: @steve99 for his original write up for replacing a bricked ECU, and his offer for me to PM him here to get this resolved, And to @tomm.brz for his reply and deleted post on this thread. Luckily I was able to read it before it was yanked without explanation (however I now know the reason why it was). Your original suggestion is what we finally ended up going with. And to the person whom works at the shop that I purchased my ProECU kit from whom I will not mention here, although I have personally thanked him through private e-mail, and to the techs at EcuTek who were (semi-)helpful to the last person I thanked above. We had a small issue that was quickly remedied. (This ProECU software can be finicky.) One other comment that I would like to make is: "Never allow your inner voice to be silenced by the noises of others." |

Most swaps are for faulty ecu inputs or output chanels mainly the cam issues on earlier cars or people with brzedit locked ecu as long as it's not ecutek you don't have license renewal issue so fairly easy and quick you can recode Vin and calid of rom all the ecu are same hardware. |
