Jailbreak fail - please advice
Posted: Mon Sep 26, 2022 10:49 am
So. I think I might be screwed here. Let's start from the beginning.
I have a 2018 FK8 (EU), which I tried jailbreaking a couple of hours ago. Everything was going great, the progress bar appeared, I got all the errors (as expected), and then suddenly (near the end I think) the Flashpro application just disappeared. No errors, nothing. The application was just gone.
I tried restarting the application.
I gave it some time in case the flashpro was doing something cool and then tried reconnecting the Flashpro (I did all the disconnects in different orders).
I left the car for a while and tried again.
But now the flashpro won't detect the ECU, the status thing at the bottom left just say "ECU unavailable". The "OBD II" thing has a green checkmark though.
The car is still in "all the errors mode", and obviously won't start. Fwiw the doors can still lock/unlock as usual.
- Online > Show last status says "The last flashpro upload succeeded"
- The flashpro tab on the flashpro window says everything is OK (except "ECU: Not detected")
- I even managed to extract a datalog, which looks pretty empty, but still
Please advice on how to proceed, right now I'm kind of worried. The car isn't parked in a great place for long term (or too easy access for me, unfortunately), so I'm really hoping for some miracle here (or tomorrow I will have to get it towed somewhere) :)
