    Car not crank after interrupted ecu update

    Hello , I tried to update my ecu by winkfp ( I previously do that successfully ) after the loading appears 2% the gong sound heard , engine safe , Trans safe and coolant temp went to red , dsc on , the car no crank .
    I tried to reach it in inpa , but i can’t.
    Another trials of updates by winkfp it stopped in 2% and gives error

    I put power supply charger before programming , any idea ??

    Where did you get the cable from? Is it setup properly?

    At this point I would contact DUDMD on this Forum, he will know what to do - at this point you are on a dead-end road.

    Make sure the latency timer for the USB cable is set to 1 and not the default of 16 in the device manager...
