This will clear up some confusion on how to initialize a read/write flash for an ECU. This process will apply to both bike and bench harnesses.

  1. Always start with all cables unplugged and the bike off / ECU not powered
  2. Start the tuning suite software. (Log in if not already)
  3. Select the "File" drop down menu and then "File Manager"
  4. Select the appropriate file for your bike's year/make/model that you wish to write to your bike and open it. *MAKE SURE TO MATCH YOUR ECU PART NUMBER TO THE CORRECT FILE* (You will also need to have this file open to Read the ECU)
  5. Plug the USB Data Link cable into your computer only.
  6. Select the "Device" drop down list and choose either "Write ECU" or "Read ECU"
  7. Follow all prompts in the tuning suite for plugging in to the harness and powering on the Bike / ECU.
  8. For installation documentation select the "Help" drop down menu in the tuning suite and select "Document Center"

*Always make sure to have a constant and stable internet connection while using the tuning suite.
