Connecting your ZN051 (Distribution Box) in order to operate the Abrites ECU PROGRAMMING software

In order for your ECU PROGRAMMING software to be fully operational it requires a ZN051 (Distribution Box). The following are the pest practice steps we recommend everyone who wants to use the Abrites ECU PROGRAMMING tool to its full potential.

1. Please connect the distribution box to your AVDI and connect the AVDI to your personal computer where you have your AVDI software installed.

2. Please make sure you always have the latest possible version of the software. If in doubt about what the latest version is please check the news section on the abrites.com website where the news are always up to date. The same location will give you additional instructions should there be any specific additional change to the operation of the ECU PROGRAMMING software.

3. Once your AVDI and distribution box are connected you need to make sure what type of reading you are planning to do. Always start with connecting GND when establishing connection to the unit.The normal procedure would go in the following steps:

• Try to read the ECU you plan on working on via the OBD. If this fails (not common):
• Try the so called bench mode of reading, connecting to the ECU’s pins only from the outside without opening the ECU and soldering a BOOT pin. This method is described in details in section 4.

• Should this method also fail then you can move to boot mode reading where you will be required to open the ECU and solder a boot pin to the designated internal position as per the diagrams in this manual.

4. Bench mode method of reading an ECU. Commonly known as “BENCH” method or table connection depending on your region.

This method is extremely popular in today’s diagnostic ecosystem. Most of our colleagues who work on engine control unit replacement and automotive tuning, as well as those who work with key programming often use this method. It is common and relatively easy to apply to ECUs on almost every contemporary ECU especially the very common EDC17 Tricore type built by Bosch. When you start using the ECU PROGRAMMING tool together with the distribution box to read an ECU via BSL mode you need to make sure that you have the DB15 splitter cable supplied with your ZN051 set connected to your distribution box.

N.B! Please note that there are two distinct types of DB15 cables (the type of ZN051 v. 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 is different when compared to v.2.3). Please note that this instructions manual is written specifically for the type of DB15 which comes with the v.2.3 distribution box. If your distribution box has been upgraded via the Abrites return upgrade program you probably have the older type of DB15 cables.

This means that the colours in the manual do not match the cable you have. If this is the case please make sure to follow the labeling on the DB15 cable when connecting to an ECU. You can easily tell the two types apart as the picture below shows:

When reading an ECU in “Bench connection” mode please note that you can supply the distribution box with 12V from a desk type power supply or any reliable source of 12V. For this purpose your ZN051 distribution box is equipped with a set of cables which can be connected using the standard connectors on both ends. One end goes to the power source and the other - straight into the distribution box positive and negative sockets. Thus your ECU will be supplied with 12V so as to enable the ECU PROGRAMMING software to communicate with it.

N.B.! Please make sure to follow these steps when working on “BENCH”:

• AVDI connected to PC
• ZN051 connected to AVDI

N.B! Please be informed the DB15 cable that is part of the Distribution Box set needs to be disconnected from the power supply during the wiring process of the unit.

Please use the pinouts supplied in this manual to connect the DB15 to the ECU, then connect the DB15 to the distribution box and then supply the distribution box with the external 12V from your power source.

VERY IMPORTANT: The 5V supplied to the ECU by the AVDI WILL NOT be enough for the ECU to operate.

5. BSL (bootstrap loader - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping

If the above methods fail you will need to open the ECU and solder a “boot pin” to the ECU’s designated location as per the diagrams. ZN051 distribution box and the DB15 supplied in the set include a boot pin as well as a full set of resistors which will also be required. Every diagram shows the resistor requirements as well as the exact location. Please be EXTREMELY CAUTIOUS when using this method and make sure all your wiring is 100% before attempting boot reading.

In the Wiring Diagrams section you will find the connection methods for wiring the ECUs on bench by either using bench or boot mode. ECUs that don’t allow to be read by the bench method (this method excludes boot mode), need to be opened and read by boot mode.

CAN HIGH(red) - pin 28 CAN LOW(blue) - pin 13

Run a cable from the “+3.3V supply” on the BACK side of the ECU to the location marked with “+3.3V” on the FRONT side of the ECU as per the photo.

In order to read a TCU on bench, you need to use the ZN051 connection with CB401/CB403, or you can use the ZN079 directly with AVDI without the ZN051 for Bosch TCU DQ381/ZF 8HP

IMPORTANT: There is a connection sequence for ZN079 that must be executed as follows:

Connect ZN079 to the TCU > conenct the power supply adapter > connect the already powered-up set to AVDI > start the ECU Programming tool software. If not executed like that, the software might not work as expected.

Below you may find the connection diagrams for:

1. Bosch TCU DQ381/ZF 8HP

2. Mercedes VGSNAG3 9G Tronic
3. Mercedes VGSNAG2 FDCT
4. Mercedes Getrag 7DCT300

9.1 ZF 8HP

Below you may find the connections for ZF 8HP, using CB401/CB403. There are 3 versions of the connectior, the only difference is the positon of the CAN wires, so if you do not know what is the type you have, you can just check until you get it right. The power wires are on the same pins.

ZN079 is used for all types, and automatically detects the correct CAN wires position.

CB403 has larger sockets that are able to fit at the TCU pins.

9.3 Mercedes VGSNAG2-FDCT

The connector of the FDCT does not have a PIN for GND, in this case you would have connect the GND black connector cable anywhere on the metal body of the TCU..

9.4 Mercedes Getrag 7DCT300

ZN051 DS Box and a CB401/CB403 is required for connection to the TCU. Once connected properly, you are able to read and write Data Flash, Program Flash and Maps of the TCU.

PIN OUT connection:

Connector B

PIN 1 - 12V+

PIN 6 - GND

PIN 19 - 12v+

PIN 33 - CAN H

PIN 34 - CAN L

The ECU Programming Tool has advanced functionalities for the BMW mounted units. There are cases when the BMW software is not able to make a ZF 8HP virgin, and here is the solution. With the use of EP003 license you can do the following:

• Read/Update the unit
• Make Virgin
• Read/Update/Copy ISN

10.1 ZF 8HP BMW Make Virgin

1. Read the ZF 8HP unit’s Data Flash with the ECU Programmin tool and the ZN079 cable set and save the data to a file.

2. Load the file in the Dump tool
3. Press the “Virginize” button - this will creat a new file that you need to save again.
4. Go back and write the file to the unit

Now the EGS is in a virgin state, you can install it into the vehicle to proceed with adaptation.

10.2 ZF8HP ISN Read/Update

Once into the Dump Tool of the ECU Programmint tool, you have an option to read, copy and update the ISN of the TCU trough the dedicated “ISN” button. If you have the ISN of the original TCU, you can write it into the donor unit. You just need to manually input the ISN you need, and click save, the software would ask you to save the newly generated dump file, and you need to write it into the TCU. If you do this, you should not need to do the procedure with IGN ON and IGN OFF for adaptation, described in the next section.

10.3 ZF 8HP BMW Adaptation

Once you have the “virgin” EGS unit installed into the vehicle, you need to complete the following steps in order to adapt it:

1. Turn IGN ON - wait for 2 min.

2. Turn IGN OFF - wait for 2 min
3. Repeat 5 times

In other words, you need to turn Ignition On for 2 minutes, than turn Ignition Off for 2 minute, than IGN ON for 2 min, IGN OFF for 2 min until you repeat ON and OFF 5 times each, which should make the procedure 20 minutes long.

11.1 Mercedes CEPC unit reading by OBDII

In the future updates of ECU programming tool you can expext the functionality to read and write Pflash, Dflash and Program data of Mercedes CEPC units by OBD(2.20/2.3/2.4).

IMPORTANT: Writing inconsistent program data can make your device not working properly. It is strongly recommended to make first a full backup of the Pflash and Dflash.
