Step 1. Backup coding
Read FEM/BDC coding ia OBDII or on bench
Step 2. Prepare service EEPROM
Open FEM/BDC shell, find 95128/95256 chip position, read EEPROM dump via BDM programmer
Load original eeprom dump and save special EEPROM dump, write special EEPROM dump back to 95128/95256 chip
Restore FEM/BDC shell, provide 12v+ and connect OBD

Step 3. Programming
This operation require connect FEM/BDC on bench and make sure you finish step 1 and step 2
provide 12v+ and connect OBD

Step 4. Restore original eeprom
Open FEM/BDC shell, write original EEPROM Dump read in step 2 back to 95128/95256 chip
Restore FEM/BDC shell, provide 12v+ and connect OBD

Step 5. Restore coding
Load coding file read in step 1, write to FEM/BDC via OBDII, finish FEM/BDC programming

 

Follow instructions to operate step by step.

First of all backup coding

You can solder the chip and read with programmers (VVDI Prog, Orange5, Carprog original etc) with eeprom adapter
Or read with vvdi prog and FEM clip adapter without soldering

(Remove and solder chip method is recommended as some say the clip adapter has a risk to lost data)

Read 95128 or 95256 eeprom data with vvdi prog and save original eeprom data
