CLONING // BACKUP // TRANSFER

ECU
cloning.

For workshops that replace faulty ECUs, transfer data cleanly and work with a full backup before every write operation.

What does
cloning mean?

// Back up the data from the old module, verify it and transfer it to a matching replacement module.

// 01

1:1 Clone

If the module and data version match, a complete backup is created and transferred to the replacement unit.

// 02

Not 1:1

If a clean direct transfer is not possible, backups of both units and a guided editing process are required.

// 03

No Clone

If cloning is not technically supported, an alternative solution or approach must be evaluated.

// 04

Support Case

For special cases, coordination runs through the Autoflasher Portal so that no data is ever blindly overwritten.

Backup first. Transfer only after verification.

// Back up first, then transfer. Every step remains clearly documented and traceable.

// STEP 01BACKUP

Back up the old unit

Read the full backup, save the original state and correctly assign the vehicle data.

// STEP 02CHECK

Verify the data

Check the module, data version, immobiliser and write path before anything is transferred.

// STEP 03TRANSFER

Transfer

Write the approved data to the replacement unit and log every single step.

// STEP 04FINAL

New backup

Back up the target unit, verify the result and document the case cleanly for future work.
