Connect your K-line or CANbus adapter to your computer and the vehicle (or ECU for bench setup). Pinouts for the Tiburon can be found on https://opengk.org.
Launch python3 gui.py
Launch python3 gkflasher.py --protocol {canbus/kline} --interface {can0//dev/ttyUSB0}. If it detects EEPROM size and calibration - all is good, you can proceed!
Add --read to the parameters. By default the output
will be saved to output_{address start}_to_{address stop}.bin. You can use --output {filename} to override that
You can use --address_start and --address_stop to only read a certain portion.
Be aware that GKFlasher will always pad the output with 0xFF's to match the EEPROM size. For example, reading 16384 bytes from 0x090000 to 0x094000 (calibration zone) on an 8mbit EEPROM will still result in a 1mb output file.
Add --flash {filename} to the parameters. GKFlasher will attempt to detect current ECU calibration version
and the calibration version of the file you're trying to flash before asking you for confirmation.
You don't need to flash the whole bin at once. You can also use --flash-calibration {filename} and --flash-program {filename}
You can use --address_start and --address_stop to only overwrite a certain portion. Be aware that input file offsets must match with intended EEPROM offset.
For example, if you want to flash only the calibration zone (0x090000 - 0x094000 on 8mbit eeprom) the calibration zone must be located at 0x090000 - 0x094000 in the input file.
This behaviour is followed by default by GKFlasher's --read command.
-c --config {filename} - Load the config file (default: gkflasher.yml). You could use this for example to prepare different configurations for different vehicles you're working on.
-p --protocol {protocol} - Currently supported: canbus and kline
-b --baudrate {baudrate}
--desired-baudrate {baudrate identifier} - See ecu_definitions.py
-i --interface {interface}
-r --read
--read-calibration - Read just the calibration zone. You can always use --address-start and --address-stop manually - this just adjusts the offset based on the ECU for you
--read-program - Read just the program zone.
--id - display ECU identification parameters (KWP service 0x1A)
--correct-checksum {filename}
--clear-adaptive-values
-o --output {filename} - Filename to save the EEPROM dump
-f --flash {input filename}
--flash-calibration {input filename}
--flash-program {input filename}
-s --address_start {offset} - Offset to start reading/flashing from
-e --address_stop {offset} - Offset to stop reading/flashing at
