FLEX+PCMTUNER.
pcmtuner Edc17c49 fiat read successfully. No need change transistor, test with different EDC17 as C49 FAL.Some users suggest 13.5v 3 AMP needed for power, others cannot get to read at all, not the tool at fault, and your wiring is not the suggested diagram for FAL which wont help either..
try these if you must. these control GPT – MMBT2222A, so no point changing others
With pcmtuner ECU Programmer, how to read denso suzuki ecu?
Advice:
you need to use OBD breakout so 12V is permanent power not switched by pcmtuner.
Pcmtuner Psa edc17c60 Adblue off
You have to do manual tprot off. Do not forget.
I use WinOls software, but you can do in HEX, no problem. MD1CS003 (PSA) has tprot too.
Pcmtuner Simos PCR2.1 – BSL Unlock, Read and Write OBD no problem. BSL to Unlock, OBD to read and write.
Pcmtuner can read Edc17c49 iveco, you need to find 10uf capacitor inline with GPT. 10uf to 50uf 16v electrolytic type.
I found one on an old speaker I had,it was attached to the tweeter.It worked a treat.
I just need to find a login PIN to do the extension.
I succeeded, a few. with 10 mf capacitor.

- Already working with it and the software is 1.2.1.
The listed modules are the same as in PCMFlash. Seems like a full PCMFlash Clone with integrated scanmatik2 in new optical hardware.
It’s like a Full PCMFlash, friend of mine sent me a screenshot, is PCMFlash software, but they build another software around like autotuner menu, you can directly click OBD/BENCH/Boot and you got instructions inside.
There is an own app (pcm tuner) with online login, its like an autotuner menu, to check vehicles, which modes are available, car configs; (which read/write modes), support and the pinouts etc.
Just tested egpt with MEDC17 before and read/write dq250mbq , all worked fine.

Question: I am looking at the possibility of buying a PCMtuner, but I have some doubts from some comments. is it true that you can only use this tool on a single PC? They tell me that if I install it on two PCs, the tool will block?
What windows does it work best on?
Can you use this tool connected to the internet?
If it gets blocked, what to do to make the tool work again?
Answer:
Yes, you can use PCMtuner tool on two PCS (Note: please use 2 different email address), no your tool won’t be blocked by installing it on 2 computers, it just won’t let you log in if you try with one same email.
works good on windows 10, works on others also.
PCMtuner can be connected to the internet especially when you search the wiring diagram with VZ account, also you need internet to update the pcmtuner software.
as far as the actual software is concerned it works just the same as the original pcmflash version 1.20 because it’s pcmflash actual software, just cannot up date pcmflash from 1.20. the only thing they have done is made there own usb dongle that tells pcmflash that u have the 67 modules.
Question: I bought a new PCMTUNER from a private person but how do I activate it?
Answer: yes it can be reactivated to a different and new user account. the process is relatively straight forward process to make this happen. You need serial number of a box .and s/n for order.
When you install the pcmflash, it will pop up to send email to the technique, in the working day it will activate automatically within 24 hours.
Question: I have to reset my pc and therefore delete everything because of viruses .. can I reinstall pcm tuner and the license will be the same?
