XZBMW  BMW E60 change DDE with used DDE, someone can help ?
Hello there,
i have a problem on an E60 525d 177hp. The DDE is faulty (internal error), but car starts and driving, only some problems when is longer standing. I bought used DDE from internet with same Bosch number and same BMW number. I read the new used DDE with KTAG in all modes (complete backup, only EEPROM, only MICRO and only EXTFLASH/MAPS ). Reading and saving the files without problem. Than i was read the faulty original ECU with these results: complete backup read gives me a cheksum error at the end of the reading, only EEPROM reading and saving without problems, only MICRO reading also without problems reading/saving, reading of EXTFLASH/MAPS again reading with cheksum error at the end of reading, so think there should be my problem with the car. Now to my main question, how can i do my new used ECU get working with my car? Someone can extract ISN from faulty original ECU read and put it into new ECU files ? Will the car start? I hope someone can help please. In attachments are all readings, of original faulty ECU and new used one.

I have tried to write the original EEPROM to new used ECU, car cranks but wont start. Is it possible to repair the faulty cheksum of my read ? Maybe this will solve all.

What do you mean with codes ? Fault code is 004293 DDE: Control unit, internal 16.
Okay that i didnt tested, i wrote only ori EEPROM to new DDE, without updateing and without ews-dde sync

No EDC17, its EDC16C31. Bosch 0281012190 BMW 7798422
I am scared to make update of the original ECU till i have no working second ECU. If something goes wrong car cant use anymore. I would prefer making new used ECU working and than try to update/repair ori ECU

Little Feedback: Write original EEPROM to new used ECU with KTAG and flash with winkfp solution didnt worked for me, winkfp is giving a error at around 70%. After that i wrote the complete corrupt and faulty backup read from the ori ECU to new used one. After that i tried again to flash with winkfp. This time without problem. Car start and drives without probelms, even no EWS-DDE pair needed. Car is starting now with boths ECUs. Thank you for help
