Hey Guys,
So I've just spent a night playing with a VE II IQ Headunit.
I made up a patch loom using an Aerpro T harness and the wiring connector from a VE Series II to plug into the OEM Series 1 wiring.
I've been playing with the EEPROM on the main PCB and was able to take a dump from it using my Keeprog programmer. The VIN number is fairly obvious (16char) in the dump and is comprised of the first 8 characters of the VIN backwards, followed by the last 8 characters of the VIN backwards - excluding the leading '6' at the start of the vin number.
Anyway, I edited the units VIN and wrote it back to the eeprom but am still getting the security lockout message. Any ideas? I have my suspicions I didn't solder the eeprom back in place 100% but will have to check it again in the morning. To write back to the eeprom I ended up desoldering the eeprom from the PCB and using my old faithful elvis programmer.
Attached are two dumps - one unadultered and one modified.
Any help thoroughly appreciated! I hate admitting defeat...
Simon
