Verified module. We have already processed this module type and hold a reference pattern for it, so the reset is done straight away.
Reading the MAC7242 microcontroller
This module has no separate EEPROM: the crash data is kept in the data flash of its Freescale MAC7xxx (ARM7) microcontroller (MAC7242). Read it over JTAG with a programmer that supports this MCU.
The MAC7242 dumps we have processed so far were 65,536 bytes (64 KB).
Make two reads and compare them before you upload, and keep the original file as your backup.
How the reset works for this module
- Read the MAC7242 memory of the GDK4-57K30 module with your programmer and save the dump.
- Upload that file here and enter the part number GDK4-57K30.
- We remove the crash record and return the repaired file, usually within minutes.
- Write the file back to the module and clear the fault codes.
Before you fit it back: clearing crash data does not repair the car. Deployed airbags, used pretensioners and damaged sensors must be replaced and the system checked fault-free before the vehicle goes back on the road.
No programmer? You can also send us the module. More answers in the FAQ.
