Author Message   Mmesa005 Posted on Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - 11:59 am:        Hello All, I am a new owner of a 02 X1 and would like to know how to backup the ECM configuration and then restore it to the same or different ECM? Any help, things to look out for, etc, appreciated! I have "Vehicle Diagnostic Scan Tool" that I am still learning about. I did use it to reset the TPS but that's the extent of use thus far. I also have a copy of EcmSpy. Thanks again!   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - 12:56 pm:        I've never used VDSTS so I don't know what it can or can't do, but ECMspy will do the trick. Fire up ECMspy, click Fetch EEPROM, then save it. You are done, you are backed up. I recommend you email it to yourself that way you still have it in the event the laptop has a major failure.   Mmesa005 Posted on Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - 01:28 pm:        Froggy, Will do! Do you know how to have the Firmware updated on a ECM or who could perform that? Steven   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - 03:08 pm:        Only a dealer can do that   Mmesa005 Posted on Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - 05:24 pm:        Froggy, Thank you again! Steven
