"Adapter Illegal" appears when using VVDI Key Tool Plus

One customer gave a feedback that his Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus will not be connected to Xhorse VVDI Mini Prog and it failed and shows “Adapter Illegal” when reading the BMW CAS3 with Xhorse XDNP11 adapter.

fix Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus “Adapter Illegal” Error

Here our engineer gave the issue reason and the solution to solve it.

 

Reason:

Xhorse XDNP11 adapter is not connected to Xhorse VVDI Mini Prog when using Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus to read EEPROM.

 

Solution:

Connect Xhorse XDNP11 adapter to Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus For EEPROM reading.

1)Set up Xhorse XDNP11 adapter in the CAS3 module and fasten it with the fixing pieces.

2)Use the main cable to connect Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus and Xhorse XDNP11 adapter.

3)On Homepage, press

Immo>>BMW>>CAS3(0L01Y)(ADAPTER)

Here it will show which adapter is needed and the connection diagram.

fix Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus “Adapter Illegal” Error

Press “Read” and “EEPROM” to read CAS3 module.

 

Note:

Within the whole process we do not use Xhorse VVDI Mini Prog, but if you really want to, it will work because Xhorse XDNP11 adapter is compatible to Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus and Xhorse VVDI Mini Prog. Just need one more step to upload the file after reading EEPROM by Xhorse VVDI Mini Prog.

 

1)Login “https://i.xhorse.com” on your phone, drag the page and you will get a code login.

2)On Homepage of Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus, press

Immo Data Tool>>File management>>SCAN CODE TO LOGIN

Now scan the code login on your phone by VVDI Key Tool Plus, then click on “CONFIRM LOGIN”.

fix Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus “Adapter Illegal” Error

3)On Homepage of the Xhorse App on your phone, press

File Management>>Local file, and

Choose the saved file to upload.

Then you can find the EEPROM file in “Download” folder on Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus.

 

In a word, both Xhorse VVDI Key Tool Plus and Xhorse VVDI Mini Prog can read BMW CAS3 with Xhorse XDNP11 adapter, but use the one with the adapter to read.

Complete!

Xhorse VVDI MB programming ELS simulator for Benz W204

 One customer gave the feedback that he was unable to program ESL module for Mercedes-Benz C300 W204 2009 by Xhorse VVDI MB. Besides, he said he’d read all the ESL and EIS data but unable to program the ESL simulator.

Benz W204 ESL Programming record (using Xhorse VVDI MB)

Here our engineer elaborates the correct operations and that has already solved this customer’s issue.

 

Solution:

1)Get the password through “Password Calculation” as the prompts.

For online calculation, it costs 1 token each time.

2)Read EIS data.

Press

EIS Tools>>Read EIS data

Paste the password on “Key Pass”, then

Press “Save EIS data” to save the file.

3)Press

ESL Tools>>Read ESL data>>Load VVDI-MB EIS data

Check “Auto clear TP and personalized”.

Click “Write” to finish the procedures.

Benz W204 ESL Programming record (using Xhorse VVDI MB)

Tips:

1)Except password calculation and getting EIS data, all the procedures are completed on ESL interface.

2)The ways to match ESL are the same as the ways to match ESL emulator.

3)When programming ESL on the vehicle, there is a need for clamping ESL K-line.

There is a plug connected to ESL, and up there will be four lines. Find the thinnest line (K-line), remove a piece of its skin, clamp it by the OBD blue clamp and then program ESL.

4)Tip 3 operations are unneeded for on-bench works.

How does VVDI MB Tool solve W230 EIS lock?

 Problem:

I did the stupid mistake to renew a W230 EIS (customer vehicle), because some else wanted to enter the VIN (he had problems in Xentry/DAS).
I first saved the EIS Data in both provided formats with xhorse MB BGA Tool, and clicked on renew EIS.
This was successful and the EIS is now impersonalized. Now neither can I write a VIN (no OBD communication) nor can rewrite the state back to the chip.
And all the keys are disabled (see attachment). Now I can't even start the engine (the owner will soon be mad at me).

The MCU is Motorla SC510108CFU (4J74Y). Could not be read by VVDI prog. Tried with Immobilizer->BENZ->EIS-W230(4J74Y)
Resoldered wires 5 times, tried to read countless times.
Part number: 230545xxxx

I have another used EIS with bit different part number and the ST12 1L59W Chipset, but I wasn't able to retrieve the Keypassword out of it.
Partnumber: 23054xxxxx
I managed to read the used EIS. All bins from BGA Tool and VVDI Prog are in the attachment (Including VIN)

renew W230 EIS with VVDI MB Tool

renew W230 EIS with VVDI MB Tool

Finally worked!

I was able to write the VIN and EIS data back on the bench. Worked like a charm after connecting VCC, GND and K-Line (the blue alligator clip on the BGA TOOL OBD cable make so much sense now)

How To:
1. Connect EIS directly to OBD by enhancing my already existing bench cable set (W230 was missing) with pin cable from my old arduino days
2. Typed in VIN and wrote it via OBD (not possible over IR) to the EIS --> Successful
3. Loaded backup EIS data and wrote it back to EIS via IR
4. Read EIS Data again to verify that "Personalized" is checked and the previous keys are "used"
5. To activate the EIS (last checkbox), go to "Other Function->Customer Request->Set Type to W230(K)->click on connect" when connection successful, click on "Activate EIS" Button. Repeat "Connect" but if it fails and check your wiring.
6. Read EIS Data again and verify that "Activated" is checked as well.
7. Try to turn existing programmed keys -> they should turn now
8. Reassemble EIS to car and start the engine

Autel chief engineer replied:

You used Autel IM508 which basically does not support MCU functions unless you have extra XP400, you connected to XP200, so there are no such menus, if your tablet is connected to XP400, then there will be those menus. And XP400 Pro supports more than XP400.
