FgTech Galletto 4 Master V54 China Clone VS. EU Clone

Fgtech Galletto 4-master v54 BDM-Tricore-OBD ECU tuning tool China clone and European clone (EU Clone) both are welcomed in the market.  What is the difference between the two ecu programmers and which one is better. Below is a compare list complied by obdii365 technicians.

1.PCB Comparison

Fgtech Galletto Chinese clone PCB board surface color is sliver, and components position are as below:

Fgtech Galletto v54 Euro clone PCB board surface color is golden and components position are as below:

Fgtech Galletto Euro clone its PCB design and component posicion

2. User Experience:

Fgtech v54 china clone is no gold immersions but PCB and soldering quality is really very good, Fgtech galletto china clone have the same component of EU clone. Also I have 2 galletto. One with yellow relays and second one with black. Both of them works very good.

I test FGtech galletto V54 on Audi 2009, Tiguan 2009, Passat 2009 and Golf 6 2009. It supports not all ecus edc17, Sure edc17cp04 and edc17cp14 year 2009 can read-write in obd. But edc17cp20, edc17cp44,etc, etc same year, have tricore protected active, and if you write in obd, ecu bloqued. I think TProt on VAG are present from 05/2009 but is very random this option is most present on engine with low power and is not compeer to years or ecu type.The best way to know if tp is active is always bootmode and read tag on file.

Besides, I collected all those cars where galletto V54 Chinese worked in one of forum around me, and I’ve made ​​this list. I hope you might help.

Additionally, someone prefer fgtech v53 to v54, thinking v53 china with HW and SW upgrade is better than v54 china without upgrade.

fgtech Galletto Euro clone Test

You can change a lot of parts but will not be the same.
Details: this is my fg v53 test, when i rebuild HW i dont change U11-U15 because seller did not have them…now is changed

After SW upgrade I used it on many situation : k line (obd), can(obd), boot tricore on each ecu med17, mev17, mevd17, edc17c-cp-cv, boot st,bdm, jtag…always perfect without error.

PS: EU costs more.

How to solve FGTech “Can not find driver” problem

Problem:

When install FGTech galletto 2, the FTReadWrite replied “Can’t find device” error message. When trying to uninstall the driver, the window screen warmed it is not FGTECH device, but USB-to-Serial device. If install the driver, fgtech software did not run and FTReadWrite or MProg didn’t find the ftdi chip. Try to install the driver on both win 7 and win xp computer over and over, but in vain.

Solution:

1) Download and install the Virtual Com Port drivers from FTDI website:

Virtual COM Port Drivers
http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

2) Then connect the FGTech to computer via USB port which had no device programmed and 1 blank device when the MProg Utility it shows.

NOTE: If you had backup and reprogram with the ept file. The system will not recognize the FGTECH and will not reprogram the firmware bin file. The Virtual Com Port Drivers would overlay the fgtech ECU programmer. Then you have to again download the related driver in FTDI website.

CMD Uninstaller 1.4
http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Utilities.htm

3) After install the right drivers, FTReadWrite programmed the backup firmware file, run FGTech software by referring to the user manual on obd365 webpage.

Read Opel EDC17 TC1767, K-TAG or FgTech Galletto?

I want to read Opel ECU EDC17 ACDelco TC1767. Which ECU programming tool should I go for, K-TAG Ksuite master or FgTech Galletto v54 master? I know both of them can read ECU in Tircore.

This is a TC 1767 3 point and boot:

Unfortunately I was told neither KTAG ecu programmer nor Fgtech v54 will do it. But should read with Fgtech galletto 2 Master version.

The galletto 2 connection wiring pinout can be loaded here:

Just put ecu in boot and read as any other 1767
Pins 3 and 10 of tricore to GND (via 1k resistor)
Pin 4 to +3.3V (1k resistor)
If this don’t work put also pin 32 to GND.

100% working if you using Fgtech galletto 2 master version.  Galletto V54 is still under testing.
