K-TAG 2.25 is the component used with the K-TAG hardware device, often paired with the hardware version 7.020. Its main purpose is to "tune" a vehicle's performance by modifying the on the ECU or TCU (Transmission Control Unit).
This is a "bench" programming tool, which means the ECU is removed from the vehicle and connected directly to the K-TAG hardware on a workbench.
Key features of the
Reading and writing: The allows mechanics and tuners to read the microprocessor, flash memory, and EEPROM of an ECU without opening it.
Protocols: Version 2.25 is compatible with various protocols, including JTAG, BDM, and Bootloader, which are used to communicate with different ECUs.
