Reading the ECU
- Confirm the ECU label says Bosch MEDG17.0 and the board matches these images.

- Select Ford and MEDG17.0 in your tool, then follow its boot-lead and power-on prompts.
- Run the supported read operation and save the original file before disconnecting.
Coverage
This guide applies to Ford MEDG17.0 only. Verification here covers the read protocol; it does not establish write or unlock support. Use the tool's instructions for boot-lead connection and timing.
Identify the unit from its ECU label and board layout, rather than the vehicle model alone.
